Charlotte Figi was a revolutionary figure in medical cannabis. Born with Dravet syndrome, a rare form of epilepsy, she suffered from seizures every 30 minutes—until her parents met with the Stanley brothers, siblings in Colorado who were breeding a medical cannabis strain with high levels of cannabidiol (CBD). Charlotte was their first patient. After she started treatment, her seizures significantly dropped off—and then stopped—transforming her life. The Stanley brothers honored their first patient by naming their company, Charlotte’s Web, after her.
Sadly, Charlotte succumbed to her syndrome in April. But Charlotte will forever serve as inspiration for the significant health, wellness, and medical potential of cannabis.
