Pressure to legalise marijuana after Australian boy denied treatment

“The parents of a three-year-old boy and a Melbourne hospital clashed after doctors stopped administering cannabis oil to the child because of concerns about legal ramifications.  They turned to cannabis oil to treat their son Cooper’s seizures about a year ago, after doctors told them they had no way of stopping them. They said it had been highly effective.  But after at first helping to administer the drug, the ABC said, hospital staff warned [the parents] that if they continued to give Cooper the oil, police would be informed.  [The parents] had their house raided in July after telling Channel Seven’s Sunday Night program about using marijuana oil on Cooper.”
