I had a very dear friend who was a very, very coservative Christian and a nurse.

When she had colon cancer she started using medical marijuana. She said it really helped her be able to eat.

There’s also research about it helping epilepsy which one of my daughter’s has.

My other daughter has a movement disorder, dystonia. Lots of research on the use of medicinal marijuana helping it.

The treatments for epilepsy and dystonia include the use of terrible drugs with terrible side effects. If mdecinal marijuana helps, then it may actually have less severe side effects.

I do know the one complaint my friend had was that medicinal marijuana was not regulated. She had one supplier whose marijuana did not have the side effects. She took it as a pill and did not get stone. When that supplier went out of business she had to switch, and she said other providers were not as good.
