I had a dear friend who just passed away from colon cancer.

We are in California, and she was using medical marijuana.

She was the sweetest person I have ever met, and the most devout Christian.

She was also a nurse.

We laughed about her experiences with medical marijuana. She said the bad kind made her very stoned, and she hated it. The good kind helped her nausea and she was able to eat. She also said it was hard to get the good kind from a reputable source.

I have a daughter with seizures, and there are quite a few reports of medical marijuana helping with seizures without the terrible side effects of abti-seizure medication.

I’m very pro medical marijuana, but against legalizing it for recreational use.

All the instances that you mention can be treated with oral THC, which provide the pain and nausea relief purportedly provided by marijuana. So, why the insistence on the leaf?
