I get so sick of people dismissing the medicinal uses of marijuana. My mother, a Christian and Sunday School teacher, used marijuana in her last months with cancer. With abdominal cancer, nausea is a bigger problem than pain and she was getting dehydrated and couldn't even keep water or popsicles down. They said the dehydration would kill her before the cancer and she didn't want to think of months in a hospital hooked up to IV's, wanted to be at home. I mentioned to her that people with cancer don't smoke cause it's a party, they smoke because it helps. So she agreed and then she thanked God he put it on this earth for her use. It didn't save her life, but it sure helped her tolerate her time here and didn't force her to go into a coma (to help with the nausea, which was the other alternative, because the nausea medicines are so strong nad knock you out) so she could spend time with me and her grandkids and husband. Some people are so stupid and selfish about denying others their RIGHT to use a substance grown freely, that they would rather see a grandmother lose precious moments with loved ones being in a 'LEGAL' coma from 'LEGAL' DRUGS rather than use what God gave us.
This is a touchy subject for me, can you tell?
Yet more Liberaltarian palaver...the 10th amendment trumps the 9th.
