Charlotte Figi, a Colorado, USA girl who found relief from Dravet Syndrome through treatment with CBD, has died. Some news outlets reported the 13-year-old died from complications of coronavirus, but that was not confirmed.
Dravet Syndrome, a rare and debilitating form of epilepsy that appears in young children, is characterized by frequent small and large seizures a day. At age 5, Charlotte suffered as many as 300 grand mal seizures a week, was confined to a wheelchair, repeatedly went into cardiac arrest and could barely speak.
