Authorities say a 2-year-old Stockton girl is in critical condition after ingesting marijuana resin, and her father and another man have been arrested on suspicion of child endangerment.

The San Joaquin County sheriff's office says the father, Alfonso Correa, and Juan Zambrano, both 20 years old, were taken into custody around 3:30 a.m. Wednesday, nearly seven hours after emergency medical technicians found the girl lethargic and suffering from seizures.

The Record of Stockton reports that the child also had THC, the active chemical in marijuana, in her system.

Officials say four adults were present in the home, but none of them was supervising the child when she found a jar lid containing marijuana resin.

the child ALSO HAD THC IN HER SYSTEM?!?!? ALSO!?!?? FUCKING AAALLLLSSOOOO?!?!?!?!
AND STILL THEY HAVE THE MEATY OX BALLS TO MAKE THE ARTICLE " OMGOMG TODDLER IS CRITICAL CUZ INGESTING POT"
FUCK YOU SERIOUSLY!!!!(CAPSx2 to any1 who wrote this article)

OFFTOPIC: man im so sick of these articles, ive read these for like 10-fucking-years; so please excuse me being pissed off.:!

PPS: Aint resin usually friggen good ice hash, or are we talking bout hash oil now? who knows about these articles?! help me out
 
I suspect that there's something else that happened to this girl to make her so ill. Obviously the THC in her body is not a good thing and is probably harmful, I feel like there is something else that happened to her that is contributing greatly to the situation that they failed to mention in the article.
 
Definition of "critical condition" when it appears in the US media:

Critical - Vital signs are unstable and not within normal limits. Patient may be unconscious. Indicators are unfavorable.

I can think of ways that a child can have unstable vitals from seizure complications.

Has anyone of any age ever had a life-threatening cannabis intoxication though?
 
Critical my left nut. I bet you could take a couple hundred grams of pure THC as a toddler and still survive.
 
^lol was she epileptic?
Cannabis dosn't just cause random seizures in people, and if so this bitch is obviously in a serious minority. I dont try and tell me some bullshit about two separate cases of people having seizures induced by chronic... Like what bullshit are you implying with that post, that cannabis can cause seizures in some people? Just because some bitch you know seized after she ripped some chronic dont mean some people bodies just cant handle weed and causes seizures.

Anyways it's obvious the girl's 'Vital signs are unstable and not within normal limits. Patient may be unconscious. Indicators are unfavorable. '. Which is to be expected after consuming hash lol.

I think she will pull through this one guys lol.
 
the media are usually not precise, and they usually just repeat whatever officials tell them without further analysis. The internet is partially to blame. There are fewer and fewer media juggernauts, and with budgets slashed, many articles are written without a single journalist on the scene.

Another newspaper stated that the girl's condition is "critical but stable", which is a contradiction. Also, "seizure" can mean many things. If you've ever witnessed an absence seizure, you'll know that the physical manifestations of "seizure" vary enormously.

Can huge amounts of marijuana cause seizures? THC is a downstream GABA modulator, so yeah. Like any medicine, it should be kept out of the reach of children.

I can't open up the link to see if this is the full story or not, but the way the article is written, this is a piss poor piece of journalism. "critical condition", whatever that means in this context... Fuck, for all we know, the kid just got super stoned and passed the fuck out. Not validating a child ingesting marijuana or the poor storage of drugs, but this article takes an nasty propaganda tone.

I will say, seziures can result from variety conditions due to the body being put under some form of stress. I have vasovagel syndrome, and have had a seizure when I became unconscious from a triggering stimuli. A combination of stress/anxiety with altered levels of blood sugar, and change in blood pressure could induce a seizure. I know there are other factors which can contribute to the potential for seizures as well. The "high state" could have induced a panic response, or exacerbated other factors in inducing a seizure.

You just flipped out here. your use of the term "this bitch" just annoyed me far to much to take you seriously. Mr. angry slacks.
 
Annoys me to fuck to see so many people constantly thinking cannabis is the safest thing in the world and willing to defend it till death.. She was 2 years old ffs who knows what affects the resin will have on her.
 
On a side note im seeing alot of cannabis+siezure stories. I have personally known two people who went into siezures after taking huge doses of thc with no tolerance. it seems a few other BLer's have seen this phenomenon? while i agree there is probably something else in play if she ate alot of resin it could have been really hard on her body.

I've seen a person have a seizure shortly after talking to me. Clearly I caused the seizure.

Reductio ad absurdum.
