Nausea is cured with cannabis better than anything the docs could give me during my two courses of chemo/radiation. I’ve read a report somewhere recently a study in California that cannabis had the properties to prevent the spreading of some types of cancer.

I’m not a true believer in all thing cannabis, but I’ve experienced positive results from using the substance for certain situations and I am very thankful to live in a state that recognizes the medical value of cannabis. That’s about all I like about our uber-liberal state government.

I’m 55 years old and avoided drugs like the plague during my youth, but when I was sick as hell, puking 80 pounds off my body and my doctors advised I might get some relief from cannabis, I thought I’d died and gone to some parallel universe, but a nurse brought me some and within 15 seconds of trying a puff, the nausea was gone and within 8 hours I was eating!!! If cannabis has NO OTHER VALUE, that made it worth violating FEDERAL law to me.

I agree..I have no issue with decriminalizing pot

though the many growers I am..err..”familiar” with might protest

easy way to make a modest living at fairly low risk at 350/ounce for high grade sense

Regards to you, and Damn Straight.

When my sister-in law was in the final stages ( and to this day, I'm not sure if the treatment, or the cancer, was worse... ) smoking dope gave her a lot of relief from her miseries.

For some reason, that side of my family regards this as a Great Dark Secret We Are Not Supposed To Talk About.

I don't see it that way- a fact is a fact.
