Doctors said 2-year-old Cash Hyde would likely die after they found a stage 4 brain tumor surrounding his optic nerve just a year ago this week.
And he nearly did. After being subjected to seven different chemotherapy drugs, the little boy from Missoula, Montana suffered septic shock, a stroke and pulmonary hemorrhaging.
Cash was so sick he went 40 days without eating. His organs were threatening to shut down. His father, Mike Hyde, intervened, slipping cannabis oil into his son’s feeding tube.
In Montana, medical marijuana is legal. Hyde had used it himself to treat his attention deficit disorder. When Cash was diagnosed in May 2010, Mike got him a marijuana card and purchased the drug from his own supplier.
Cash, now 3, made a miraculous recovery at Primary Children’s Hospital in Salt Lake City, but his father’s bold action — taken behind doctors’ backs — has raised serious questions about a parent’s role in medical treatment.
Hyde said he believes it was the marijuana oil that helped Cash eat again and that the drug — illegal in most states, including Utah, can cure cancer.
“Not only was it helpful,” Hyde, 27, told ABCNews.com. “It was a godsend.”
Dr. Linda Granowetter, a professor of pediatrics at New York University and chief of the Division of Pediatric Hematology and Oncology, told ABCNews.com that Hyde’s intervention was “fascinating” but “somewhat bothersome.”
