@DrOrr I know I'm talking of a much stronger drug when I bring opium in this picture. But, how many who are against the truly medical benefits of marijuana would be against giving morphine to a wounded soldier, a horribly burned victim, someone recovering from a painful injury or surgery, especially from a close loved one, a friend who's suffering from an incurable illness...or themselves ? Morphine derives from opium. I don't think many would, especially if they're the one's suffering. Yes, God, our Creator, put ALL these medicines on earth for us to use in helpful ways, or, we can abuse them. Should those who need these medicines be deprived because some abuse them ? I don't think so. Same way some will use religion to help or to abuse. I'm a Native American who happens to believe in Yéshuah as the one true God, no matter what others, including other Natives may think, I believe truth where I find it, but when someone gets on their soapbox preaching the "evils if the demon weed" they better rightly discern that Bible they use to deprive others who are suffering and need these meds. 'Nuff said.

I'm sad you're having so much trouble finding a doctor who'll prescribe a medication that has kept you free from seizures but glad that it has worked for you. It's ridiculous how these oppressive, and I say that without hesitation, these oppressive laws work against patients who've had success with cannabis as a real medication for a number of health issues. Some years back this couple living in New Jersey had a little girl, about 3-5 years old and sometimes she'd have over 100 seizures a day. Own their own and against the laws of New Jersey, they sought advice , I think they took a trip to CO and she was given cannabis oil with a certain amount of THC, it was thoroughly searched out for this little girl, exact dosage in drops , everything. Her seizures began to drop. The professionals in CO even created a special marijuana plant just for her, I think it was called Charlotte's Web, or something like that, been a few years. At the onset of a seizure they gave her a certain amount of drops from a dropper. Her seizures began to come under control, then they came less and less and also less severe. Where before she'd have seizures around 80 to over 100 in a day, she got to where she was having about 50 or less in a day, then even that began decreasing. They couldn't stay in CO forever because of the financial situation so they had to go back to their home in N.J. They became advocates for their little girl but the Governor at the time, Christy, wouldn't budge on his stance concerning marijuana laws. Eventually, the couple had to just pack up and leave all their friends and family behind to move to CO for their little girl's sake. Since moving to CO and their child being treated with the marijuana therapy/medicine, the last I heard, the little girl's seizures became about 30 a day or even less than that. Land of the free? Then why aren't we free to choose the medication that's proven to work for us ? I wish you nothing but the best and may this draconian system be brought down quickly, people are suffering.

I'm 70, I've been busted up in my life, from hard dangerous work, in later years from several vehicular accidents, and no, no one else was injured, and again no, I wasn't drinking alcohol or smoking weed, perfectly straight. I was on heavy duty pain pills from the wounds and injuries sustained through the years, Dilaudid #8s..For the last 9 years I smoke weed for the pain and was able to get off the more addictive and dangerous pain pills, and no, even though I wouldn't have any trouble driving, after smoking, by choice I don't drive out of respect for the lives of others, in case. What I can't do is go to a dispensary to legally buy what for me is a medicine, nor could I grow it for my medical use, instead I have to be an outlaw in order to get it. I'm very well over 21, 3x over and yet in this dumbaxx State I live in (can't afford to move to another) I can't grow a medicinal plant, nor, legally buy its product to relieve my pain and nausea from all the other meds I have to take on a daily basis for health problems. The year is 2023, the hippies and other young people was smoking it way back in the 60's, we really haven't "come a long way baby." Cannabis should've at least been available to people many decades ago and yet, in many places the draconian laws are still against our choice. My damn body, my damn choice ! Right?
