Nevil Schoenmakers
https://www.gofundme.com/nevil
As Therapeutic Cannabis laws are reforming around the globe and the re-introduction of this medicine into the mainstream comes to pass, the expertise of those who have dedicated their lives to this plant are now crucial. Nevil Schoenmakers - Known worldwide as the father of modern cannabis genetics, founded ‘The Seed Bank’ in Holland in 1984, and was one of the first legal producers of Cannabis seeds. Most medical grade cannabis varieties can trace their lineage back to Nevil’s work. Whilst we continue our lobby to legalise Therapeutic Cannabis in Australia, Nevil is increasingly struggling with Hepatitus C. The good news is Hep C is treatable using a new drug called 'Harvoni', which has a 95% success rate. The bad news is the drug is not currently subsidized in Australia with the cost for the 12 week course of the drug being $95,000.00 Harvoni is now Nevil's only hope. So we are reaching out to the world for small donations to get Nevil on this life saving medicine as soon as possible - so he may live to be a valuable part of the future of Therapeutic Cannabis which will in turn provide relief of pain and suffering to the masses. Nevil's is known for Sativa's and the revered breed 'Nevil's Haze'.....but he says 'the best is yet to come' Please help to ensure this is a reality with a small donation. All those who donate will be kept on file and will have the chance to meet Nevil when he is set up in his new 'legal' breeding facility, in a location to be disclosed in the near future. It would be nice to see the icmag community dig deep to help Nevil Cheers Kitcha

Thank You for posting this KITCHA mate
 Good Vibes for Nevil  When I had HepC really really bad back in the early 1990's the only thing that saved my life was a combination of Chinese Herbs from a traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner who was about 110yrs old but he knew his stuff, and acupuncture and high doses of certain amino acids, I also was on a very restrictive diet to help out the Chinese Herb concoction to work properly. The amino acids were helping me dry out, get off methadone and not for my Hep C. I understand exactly what Nevil is going through and I send nothing but Good Healing vibes to Nevil and his Family and hope he can get the drug he needs

So messed up that a medicine that could save someone would cost so much.
Hopefully he gets the treatment he needs. |

*update on med availability for nevil*
digitaljournal . com states, 'The Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) ,granted a waiver of local trials for generic versions of drugs used in treating Hepatitis C. The sofosbuvir- ledipasvir combo is seen as a very potent cure for Hepatitis C with about a 90 percent cure rate, as <b>compared to old interferon treatment which had serious side effects</b>. The drugs are expected to hit the market in weeks costing a fraction of the branded versions.... India has approved the sale of generic versions of hepatitis C drugs. The move will bring down the standard course of sofosbuvir and ledipasvir (generic versions of Sovaldi and Harvoni) to <b>$1,000</b> compared to <b>$90,000</b> in U.S. and Europe.' *best wishes and energy to Nevil and his wellness* |
