Deryn Blackwell, from Norfolk, was sent to a hospice shortly after his 14th birthday to live out his final few days. He was frail and in extraordinary pain after a relentless battle with a one in a billion form of cancer, Langerhans cell sarcoma. But after his parents secretly gave him cannabis oil to ease his pain and anxiety, he made a miracle recovery, as the Daily Mirror previously reported. Today, Deryn - who had also battled leukaemia - is a happy and healthy 17-year-old student, with friends and a girlfriend. And he was on Loose Women, with his mum Callie Blackwell speaking about the wonders cannabis did for him - and how he felt when his mum first told him about her cannabis idea, while he was planning his own funeral.

Some of the hospice workers knew and called it, 'the magic under the bed'. "Everything had been taken away from Deryn, there was no conventional treatment left. "I was told, 'Something will get him.' "It got to a point, I knew I was facing 14 years if I was found out, but I would do every day of a 14 year sentence if it meant he was still here." His remarkable transformation - and his parents' actions - have been widely reported on following the Mirror's article.
