At least that’s what he told me when he called – so happy he was crying.
Made me SOB in happiness with, and for him.
You see – Bob Crouse is VERY special to me – and we will be sharing his story in the Charter issue of Colorado Connect
Here’s an e-mail written by Mark Slaugh from iComply in Colorado Springs. I hope you will join us in the celebration!

Hey Everyone!
GREAT NEWS!!
Bob Crouse has been fighting his cancer with phoenix tears and winning!
After talking to Dr. Melamede last night and reviewing the blood work, Bob called this morning with excitement in his voice. He said “half my cancer is gone!” and joked that he may have “misplaced it”. We were both bursting with excitement and he wanted to share his blood work results with everyone to show the proof that CBD causes Apoptosis in his Body and that cannabis is curing his cancer!
2007 9/2011 10/2011 White Blood Count 27.3 24.1 16.8 Thousands per NCL – Normal Range: 3.8 -10.8 (Leukemia) Lymphocytes 22400 19039 11726 Cells per NCL – Normal Range: 850 – 3900 (Leukemia) Platelets 187 124 103 Thousands per NCL – Normal Range: 140 – 400 (Causes blood to coagulate) Neutrophils 12 19 26 Thousands per NCL – (New cell growth)As you can see over time, Bob’s white blood cell and lyphocyte count has diminished – these counts are where the Leukemia lives and are indicators of the agression of the disease. Clearly, Bob has almost dropped half of his cancer when comparing the results to his original diagnosis in 2007. Over the last 30 days, between 9/2011 – 10/2011, Bob has had regular access and ingestion of phoneix tears medicine. This cannabis oil concentrate has brought his blood counts almost back to normal levels. The Neutrophils are what fight the cancer and as the cancerous cells are killed off, these cells have come back. Bob is getting better, at least according to his lab results.
Considering Bob takes no other medications for his cancer, science would have to summarize that the CBD from his medicine is indeed causing Apoptosis which sends a suicide signal to cancer cells while leaving his healthy cells alone. This is great news and should make the District Attorney Dan May, think twice before prosecuting sick patients who need medical marijuana.
Please consider joining C4CPR and the CSMCC on Friday, January 27th for Bob’s Motions Hearing Rally. Help us reach 100 protestors and send a strong message to Dan May that Colorado will not stand for the prosecution of patients anymore!

Thank you all for supporting Bob during this trial on his life.
_____________________________________________________________________________
I would also like to say Thank you to all who have supported Bob – and all who will be. There are many more patients out there just like Bob who need us so badly – to help support and love them, prop them up through sickness and trial.
If you can make it on the 27th – I think you will be amazed. I hope you do make it – Irvin Rosenfeld and I will be there!
If there are any more patients or people being prosecuted unjustly – PLEASE let me know. This is another function of Colorado Connect – SUPPORT.
You guys – and the patients too. NOTHING is more powerful than having 80% of a courtroom get up to leave with a defendant.
NOTHING
Walk proud warriors!
