I would not wish my dad’s illness on anybody, but I wonder if Attorney General Sessions would change is bulldog stance on medical marijuana if the next time he put his pen to paper he noticed a slight tremor in his hand. Nobody should take one of the most promising medications away from those who suffer.

Complete and total crap. IF pot WERE an effective medicine pharmaceuticals would be all over it. They already have THC based medicine but none are recommended for Parkinsons as far as I know.

The bottom line is that Parkinsons DOES have effective medicines. Much more effective then smoking pot with far fewer side effects.

See this link from the Mayo Clinic or read numerous other pages for REAL Parkinson's treatments.

The author of this piece is just using his dad's disease to further the pro-legalization's (LEFTIST) view of pot.

“IF pot WERE an effective medicine pharmaceuticals would be all over it.”

How do you come by this very special knowledge of what pharmaceuticals ‘would’ or ‘would’ not do?

Bottom line is that for some of us cannabis is medicine. I started using it in 2015 to treat depression & anxiety after 20+ years of taking pharmaceuticals as prescribed with less than acceptable results. Since then I’ve lost 81 lbs (and counting) due to increased energy & the desire to exercise & my wife has her husband back again.
