ABOUT ME
Allison McMaster
Allison, a typical wife and mum, had her world turned upside down by a devastating cancer diagnosis that gave her less than two years to live. The doctors’ prognosis was so grim that her life insurance was paid out and Allison, her husband and young son started taking their final bucket-list holidays.
But Allison wasn’t ready to give up hope when the medical system ran out of ideas, so she gathered her strength and decided to look for alternative treatments, even if it meant breaking the law. With cannabis oil still illegal, Allison found herself in a fight for her life that took her to the backstreets of Nimbin and the black market to access her medicine.
The chance she took led to a remarkable tale of triumph over adversity.
This story of courage, determination and gentle humour reminds us what it was like only a few short years ago, when ordinary people went to extraordinary lengths to get the medical help they needed
Ten years on, Allison is not just alive but free of cancer, cannabis oil is now legal, and thousands of Australians are using it every day.

ANDREW KATELARIS
Andrew Katelaris
Dr Katelaris was struck off the medical register in 2005 for conducting research into the drug. He has been arrested dozens of times and charged for a range of drug offences.
Since then he has aggressively pursued his belief that cannabis can be used to treat illnesses and has focused on producing an oil that alleviates the symptoms of childhood epilepsy.
And he has done it knowing he could be arrested again.
It might seem extreme, but for the man making medical cannabis for kids, he says the risk is worth it.
“I haven’t sought to avoid legal troubles,” Dr Katelaris says in a documentary called The Pot Doctor. “Our primary motivation is to actually advance the cause of medical cannabis.
Dr Katelaris says he believes so strongly in the medical benefits of cannabis that he didn’t have a problem giving up his medical license.
He claims he was told to choose between his research and being a registered doctor.
“It wasn’t a very hard decision,” he explained. “Seeing the therapeutic affects of what we were doing and the clear superiority of cannabis therapeutics whether they are used a sole agent or a combination agent.

A 'Quick Plug', by Caroline Hutchinson
I've been sent in the past week or so, a couple of books by local authors and I thought I'd give them a quick plug. The first one is called 'Terminal to Remission with Cannabis Oil: An Australian Success Story, written by Allison McMaster. She's from Mooloolah Valley, here on the Sunshine Coast. She says; 'She's typical mum, but she had her world turned upside down when she got a cancer diagnosis. And when she felt like she was running out of options, she decided that she would try cannabis oil and as the title suggests, it is an Australian success story. You'll also just really enjoy the book because Allison is just sort of told her life story, which is something just, it's really enjoyable. But if this is a path that you're on, I think you might be, you might be interested to read this one 'Terminal to Remission with Cannabis Oil', by Allison McMaster and you can just Google it and you'll find Allison straight away.

Cancer is not something I planned on getting
The whole reason for me to become healthy all those years ago was to not be a burden on my family.
It was never something I shouted from the rooftops, for obvious reasons
Releasing this book is the most open I've been with anyone about my use of medical cannabis oil
