Amber Elaine Fountain, born November 17th, 1993, was diagnosed with Stage 4 Brain cancer (Glioblastoma) in March of 2021. She underwent resection (brain surgery) and started treatment right away (6 Weeks of chemo and radiation). We were told that she only had 12 -15 months to live and that’s with standard of care (surgery and treatment).
After the 6 weeks of treatment, she had another MRI to discover that it wasn’t going away. We were told that she needed to double the chemo dose, and she couldn’t handle that for no more than 3 days. Then a family member shared a video on social media of an individual beating brain cancer with cannabis oil. I reached out to that individual and he was willing to help us, along with others in the cannabis community and donated cannabis oil to Amber.
Up to a gram a day within 90 days is what she had to work on, to help fight cancer. She didn’t back down at all. She was up to a gram a day within 2 weeks. While we were getting help from the cannabis community, we learned to grow this wonderful plant to make it ourselves because a gram a day is expensive. Being self-sufficient is key.
As time went on, the tumor was shrinking. Things looked good until she had a recurrence almost 2 years later nearing the end of 2023 (when the original tumor was almost gone). Amber underwent another resection. After that, she started to have seizures. She then underwent Laser ablation in January of 2024. She continued to take cannabis oil and continued to fight.
Nearing the end of 2024, we were told that the tumor is no longer shrinking and that Amber had weeks, maybe months if she didn’t do any treatment. She decided to do the treatment other than chemo and radiation. She also continued to take cannabis oil alongside the treatment that they had to offer.
Then in November 2024 she had a seizure that wouldn’t go away unless she was heavily medicated with seizure meds. Amber was sent home, and we were told she had 2 weeks. The cancer has become too aggressive, and nothing was working. Four weeks later, on December 24th, 2024, Amber Elaine Fountain Passed comfortably at home with Family.
I wrote her story of battling Glioblastoma and started this business (Fountain Farm Seeds LLC) in honor of Amber Elaine Fountain and her battle with Glioblastoma. This plant helped her live longer than 12-15 months and shouldn’t be discriminated. It’s a wonderful plant and the world should know and understand it’s medicinal properties. She was an inspiration to many. Fly high my angel.
