Angel Thrasher Weaver on the fight to administer cannabis medicine to her son Dylan and her tragic loss

Angel Thrasher Weaver is the mother of the late Dylan Moon, who was born a micro preemie, or born very prematurely, at just 26 weeks. Dylan was born with hydrocephalus, resulting in brain damage and initial frontal lobe damage, which caused him to have intractable epilepsy. Dylan suffered grand mal seizures, which damaged his brain, killing neurons and further worsening his condition. Not surprisingly, cannabis significantly lessened Dylan’s suffering, but the iron curtain of federal cannabis prohibition created arbitrary obstacles to Dylan’s quest for relief, as well as thousands of other Americans seeking to lessen their suffering. Sadly, Dylan lost his battle in July of 2025.
