Yes THC is definitely one of the main cancer-fighting cannabinoids but CBD (famous even in mainstream circles lately) and CBG are important as well. Certain types of cancer respond to different combinations of cannabinoids. A good general starting point is equal parts CBD and THC. There's also a combined therapeutic effect when dozens of cannabinoids work together in various ways, along with the therapeutic effects of the terpenes (non-cannabinoids organic compounds found in cannabis, responsible for the aroma and flavour). It's called the entourage effect, and it's why some patients prefer a "whole plant extract", rather than specific preparations of pure THC, CBD, etc. For a good general overview, here is a presentation (with 200+ really good links to reputable universities and hospitals) on the topic I did with my wife @MediKatie.

Yeah .... I lost a bunch of my family to Cancer... I sent them all the information on THC, CBD hoping it could save their lives. I’m not sure if they tried any of them but they did not survive. I hope that Cannabis is the cure.
Sorry to hear you've lost so many to cancer.
I think there are many ways to treat and cure it. Basically it's often about correcting the problem or conditions that allowed cancer to take hold in the first place. Understanding our endocannabinoid system is part of that I think. Avoiding cancer-causing foods and drugs is obviously extremely important. Organic and raw food as much as possible, less white sugar, less processed, less alcohol, less smoke, and so on. Sometimes I think surgery is the best option, followed up by lots of RSO (cannabis oil)for healing, pain control, and to deal with any residual cancer cells.
A friend of mine's father was serious ill with skin cancer, which he healed using RSO:
But I also have a friend with liver cancer and he's not having much luck with the oil. It seems a lot more research is necessary, but in a lot of places, we're still trying to fight prohibition so that we can grow, extract, use, and experiment with this awesome plant.
