OLIVIA Newton-John is calling for medicinal cannabis to be available to cancer patients worldwide.
The Grease star, 71, who has been using the drug for years in her fight with breast cancer, stepped up her crusade at a charity walk.
Olivia – diagnosed with the disease for the third time in 2017 – told the crowd in Melbourne, Australia: “I’m right here, right now, alive and healthy.
Through treatment and medicinal cannabis, I am feeling fantastic. Medical cannabis has helped me incredibly, with pain, with sleep, with anxiety. I feel wonderful.”
The four-time Grammy winner added that it was her dream for it to be available to all cancer patients.
Olivia was joined on Sunday by husband John Easterling, 71, and daughter Chloe Lattanzi,33, for the Wellness-Walk and Research Run.
It raises money for the pioneering medical institution she founded seven years ago in the Australian city – where she is now being treated herself.The Olivia Newton-John Cancer Wellness and Research Centre trials ground-breaking medicines and holistic therapies.
Its specialist medics collaborate with researchers around the world to develop new treatments and clinical research into the medical benefits of cannabis.
Olivia, who was born in Cambridge before emigrating to Australia aged five, was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 1992.
She had a partial mastectomy and chemotherapy and was disease-free until 2013 when the cancer returned.
The actress and singer again appeared to beat it until 2017.
Medicinal cannabis was made legal in England last November, but the NHS states that “very few people” are likely to get a prescription.
