The parents had withdrawn 3-year-old Noah McAdams from chemotherapy in favor of homeopathic treatments.
A Florida judge ruled that a 3-year-old boy with leukemia must begin receiving chemotherapy treatments despite the objections of his parents, who would prefer he be treated with CBD oil, alkaline water, and mushroom tea., was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in April at Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital. His parents, Taylor Bland-Ball and Joshua McAdams, opted to go against his doctors' advice and pursue a homeopathic approach to the illness.
But Minardi said that the child will also be able to “use alternative treatments” during this phase of chemotherapy, including medical cannabis.Right now, the parents and their attorney are working on appealing the decision. “The hospital's governing body was disorganized and the doctors were not pleasant or professional to us,” McAdamsduring his testimony. “It seemed like doctors were disappearing on us and just passing down Noah's information second hand.”
When Noah’s parents failed to take him to a third scheduled chemotherapy appointment, authorities were notified.for a child “who is believed to be missing and endangered.”The boy was later found in Kentucky and both McAdams and Bland-Ball were accused of possible child neglect.
