Andy Ashcraft still doesn’t look like a guy with malignant pleural mesothelioma, and especially not one who was diagnosed with the deadly cancer six years ago.
He remains an anomaly, a beacon of hope and a testament to cannabis oil, a positive attitude and a belief in God.
“My oncologist calls me a mutant,” Andy said recently from his home
in Southern California, where he lives his wife Ruth. “I consider myself
very fortunate.”
As word spreads through the mesothelioma community, Ashcraft is receiving more and more inquiries about his cannabis oil treatment, most asking to share his not-so-secret secret to fighting off the cancer.
Although an immunotherapy clinical trial
worked well for almost three years, its effectiveness stopped suddenly
and his health plummeted quickly. His doctor suggested palliative care
and a hospice facility for his final weeks as the tumors grew.
At the insistence of Ruth, though, he instead turned to cannabis oil,
a derivative of the marijuana plant, sparking a miraculous recovery.
Andy and Ruth will be participating in the American Cancer Society’s
Relay for Life on May 14 in Murrieta, California, spreading the word
under the banner of Strollin’ for a Cure.

“If we can help anyone by sharing what I do, we’re happy to do it,”
he said. “My wife, though, knows more about keeping me healthy than I
do. I’ll let her tell you.”

mesothelioma survivor who uses cannabis oil as his cancer treatment.

Because of the number of requests Andy and I are getting about his survival,
we wanted to share with everyone a few of the things Andy is doing to
help him stay healthy. It’s our hope to help anyone suffering from this
horrible disease.
I’ll preface it by saying we cannot guarantee this will work for
anyone else. We are not stating it’s a cure, by any means. We are not
experts and have no medical background. We are only sharing what has
been working for Andy with the hope it may help someone else.
You should talk with your own doctor first to get his or her medical
opinion before trying any alternative medicine. Also, this might not be
available where you live, and I’ll warn you, it’s not cheap.
Andy has been completely off chemotherapy
since July 2014. He has been living a happy, active life now like any
normal 69-year-old man. We spend a lot of time traveling to our
grandson’s games, visiting friends and family. We exercise every day. We
attended his 50th class reunion last October.
If you met Andy, you would never know he was given a very grim diagnosis of stage IV mesothelioma in May 2010. We both feel that in order to fight this disease, it is mandatory to keep a positive attitude and faith in God.
We think the cannabis protocol has helped, too.
