heal From Sickness to Health: by Cory Hughes JENNIFER HUSE’S STORY After being diagnosed with endometrial hyperplasia, doctors recommended to Jennifer Huse that she undergo a hysterectomy to prevent cancer. Instead, Jennifer sought a less invasive treatment and turned to cannabis in Colorado. As Cory Hughes tells us, her decision led her to a better quality of life, and she is now sharing her experience with other women. In 2016, Jennifer Huse became one of many marijuana refugees in the United States. Jennifer, who currently takes up residence in New Jersey, was diagnosed with endometrial hyperplasia, a thickening of the uterine lining that, in many cases, leads to cancer. Jennifer had been seeing early symptoms as far back as 2009, however, a proper diagnosis didn’t materialize until 2015. In the years leading up to her diagnosis, doctors had been recommending a complete hysterectomy. By the time the diagnosis came in, doctors had detected the presence of advanced pre-cancerous cells. Still, the only treatment recommended to her was the hysterectomy route, simply to prevent any possibility of cancer. Finding this unacceptable, Jennifer made the decision to pack up 40 grow. heal. learn. enjoy. myhydrolife.ca
“ Cannabis took me from knowing I was dying to feeling the best I have ever felt physically. I went from sickness to health in three months.” and head to Colorado to give cannabis treatments a chance. The experience took Jennifer from being debilitated and hospitalized to feeling the best she has in years. “Cannabis took me from knowing I was dying to feeling the best I have ever felt physically. I went from sickness to health in three months,” she says. Jennifer is an active woman. She works with an organization known as The Venus Project, a group that advocates for a resource-based economy. She is constantly traveling back and forth between her home in New Jersey and The Venus Project headquarters in Florida. Add to that trips to Denver for treatments and it’s amazing she had any energy left at all. When Jennifer first started showing symptoms, like a menstruation period that lasted for four months, she and her doctors were puzzled. Doctor after doctor tried to determine the problem, but none could. This went on for years with doctors pushing for a hysterectomy. Jennifer made the decision to skip surgery and try cannabis. But before heading west, she wanted to reach out to women who were in similar circumstances, and she hoped she could pass on what she had learned to save other women from unnecessary procedures. She got involved with Hysterectomy Educational Resources and Services (HERS), a group that specializes in offering health and education services to women in hopes of providing alternatives to invasive surgeries, particularly hysterectomies. Besides working with HERS, Jennifer released a heartfelt video online in which she tells her story, hoping women around the world will learn from her experience. “Having to leave my kids, my businesses, and pay the expense of living in another state just to get non-toxic treatment was not only emotionally and physically draining but made me fully aware what little freedom we actually have,” she says. When Jennifer arrived in Colorado in <strong>June</strong> 2016, she had just been married. At her wedding, she was worried that she was too sick to make it through the reception. When she advised her cannabis medical professional of her diagnosis and voiced her concern that the pre-cancerous cells could advance, the doctor knew just what to prescribe. Jennifer started a regimen of the world-famous Rick Simpson oil (RSO). According to Simpson, his whole-plant cannabis oil has cured more than 5,000 people of cancerous and pre-cancerous cells. She was recommended to a dispensary that specializes in whole-plant cannabis oil treatments. The recommendation was 60 milligrams of RSO per day for 60 days. Less than a month later, Jennifer’s head was clear, like a fog had lifted. She felt better daily, constantly seeing improvement in her appetite and ability to get around. She went back in for evaluation and after 90 days, it was found that there was no unhealthy tissue present and that the advanced pre-cancerous cells were gone. Cannabis helped Jennifer get back on her feet and avoid the traditional surgical route that doctors are so quick to suggest. Jennifer spent years trying to find out what was going on with her body at tremendous cost, both physical and financial. Three months earlier she was barely able to get out of bed. Now, she was on top of the world. Jennifer believes that to deny people medical cannabis treatments is to sentence them to a life of sickness and possibly even death. She wants to demonstrate there are more than pharmaceutical options available. Jennifer is back to work with The Venus Project and still bouncing around the country helping to create a better future for all of us. She plans to continue her cannabis treatments when she returns to Colorado. “My advice to anyone considering treatment would be if at all possible to try cannabis, especially before any nonreversible or highly toxic measures are taken,” she says.
