  • Hi Kelbels20,

    I'm very sorry to hear this about your father in law. 

    I just wanted to make you aware of the information on the NHS site about medical cannabis, as well as this post one of our cancer nurses made in response to another member who had a similar question.

    If you have any questions and would like to speak to one of our nurses, you can call them for free on 0808 800 4040 - Monday-Friday, 9am-5pm.

    All the very best,

    Moderator Anastasia
