A Melbourne couple could be charged for giving their three-year-old son medicinal cannabis who was suffering from hundreds of life-threatening seizures a day.
Under doctor’s supervision, Cassie Batten and Rhett Wallace use cannabis oil to treat Cooper’s severe epileptic seizures as he did not respond to any other medication.
However Victorian police raided the family’s Mernda home, north-east of Melbourne, and seized all the supply – leaving his parents fearful that they will lose their son.
