Deryn Blackwell: The Boy in 7 Billion. Did Cannabis Save His Life? Part 1

Join us in this week's episode featuring the incredible Deryn Blackwell, otherwise known as The “Boy in 7 Billion”, who was diagnosed with leukaemia in 2010 at just 10 years old and was later diagnosed with Langerhans cell sarcoma in 2012. This rare cancer only affects one in 7bn people, and Deryn was the only person in the world to have been diagnosed with this form of cancer after having initially had leukaemia.

We had his mother, Callie Blackwell on the show in 2023 to bare all on what it was like navigating the reality of her son dying before her eyes and the strength and courage it took to take matters into her own hands using medicinal cannabis, but today we get to hear it directly from the boy who experienced it all.

Deryn's incredible story is a testament to the strength it takes to stand up to a medical system that chooses to profit from sickness and an example of the miraculous healing that can take place when we work with Mother Earth.

Highlights from the episode:

There was so much to unpack from Deryn's story that we decided to have him back on the show for Part 2 to discuss his experience with medicinal cannabis in more depth, so keep an eye out for next week!

This episode is NOT one to miss!
