At the age of 2, Wyatt suffers multiple seizures a day, and his mother, Jessica Hauser, worries what effect his infantile spasms may have on his neurological development. According to Hauser, the family has tried over 10 different types of medication to treat Wyatt’s epilepsy with no positive results and are now considering a drastic step to help improve their child’s health — medical marijuana.
“Every time Wyatt has a seizure, it’s causing brain damage, so the sooner we can get his seizures under control, the better outcome he’ll have long-term,” Hauser told KTSP. “We’ve tried more than 10 medications to help get those seizures under control, and so far none of them have worked.”
