My wife and myself are both disabled. She is paralized from the chest down. She does have some movement.But no self control. Myself i lost my left and have to have seven back operations. So what i’m saying is each month we get enough medications to dope up a military company. So we have both tryed some cannibus. And what it did was and had better benefits than any M.D. could percribe. I’ve been smoking for thirty five years. And it has never had any adverse effect on me It slows down my pain and completly put’s a stop to all of my muscle spasm’s. And i get around better that the meds i get from the MD’s not walking around in a doped up fog all day. I have a morphine pump in side of my body to help eleaveate the pain. But at 1’000.00 a month to be refilled, i just let it go empty, and went throught withdrawl’s for ten week’s. Now when i get in trouble for the pain or spasms i just smoke a little bit and i set for the day. with no side effect’s. And i get up and get more done in one day that i use to get done in one month under Dr’s and parmmaceutical’s have ever done for me. The American people need to get up off of there asses and open there eyes. Instead still beleaving all of the lies,muth’s and urban untruth’s about a totalily harmless plant. One of Mother Natures Best hidden secrets. There are only 50,000 products that can be produced form one simple plant So let’s wake up and write your congressman. And get this this bullshit law off the books that does not need to be there to begin with.
Thanks Woodman54
WHY NOT WA STATE. I SUFFER FROM FIBROMYALGIA, ARTHRITIS, SEVERE SPINAL pain, LOSS OF APPETITE BECAUSE OF THE PAIN. I TAKE THE EQUAL AMOUNT OF LEGAL MORPHINE AND DOES LITTLE FOR MY PAIN. I AM NOT FUNCTIONABLE AND I AM ONLY 44. MY CAREER WAS A NURSE, YOU ASK??? 24 YEARS, NOW ON SOCIAL SECURITY, NEVER TOUCHED THE STUFF, VALUED MY LICENSE. SMOKED AS A YOUNG ADULT CUZ I HAD APPETITE PROBLEMS THEN, NO SIDE EFFECTS, NO RESISTANCE LIKE MOST DRUGS IVE TAKEN OVER THE LAST 10 YEARS. WHY SHOULD I SUPPORT THE PHARMACUETICAL COMPANIES. WAKE UP WASHINGTON!!!! tHIS IS A FIGHT YOU CANT WIN SO LEGALIZE MARIJUANA!!!!
I have smoked with a good friend medical marijuana who has cancer.
It helps him feel much better, giving her apetite and feel sharper. She has fun, I have fun, and hey – if it helps, then why not?

I am a disabled person that have been a slave to strong medications for many years now. In all these years I get very little relief from tremendous nerve pain, and the side effects of the drugs that I have to use are far and away worse than long term MARIJUANA use could have ever done to me. I will give you some examples, I have lost my teeth, my eye sight, my ability to urinate normally, not sleeping normally, and the list goes on and on. If these people that say marijuana is bad can show me side affects that come even close to what I have from legal medications I will stop the fight, but someone with a half a brain can easily tell that there is no way that smoking pot can cause any of the trouble that I now have by going the “legal” route. I there for say with deep conviction for these people against legal marijuana to get there head out of there butts and fix this injustice against the sick and suffering people of the world that just want to fell better with a natural plant instead of all of this poison they call medicine!! There must be changes to the law and changes in the way the general public view Marijuana or things will never change.
I sit here and I am reading all these comments about why doesn’t the government legalize marijuana and all the people out there in the world that are suffering from some kind of illness. It breaks my heart to just read about all this while our “leader” just sits in his big white house planning on what he else he can do to get more money. I smoke cannabis every other day to help me cope with my 7 year old boy that was diagnosed with Autism. The fact of the matter is that there is alot being done to legalize cannabis. The government is not stupid. It is trying to find a way to benefit from it. There WILL come a time when the government can’t not just turn it’s back anymore. Something is going to have to be done. They need to think of the times we are all living in and if they keep ignoring it WILL come back and bite them right on the ass.
Medical marijuana provides health assistance in areas no other prescription medications can.

Cannabis(scientific name) has NEVER caused a single death from overdose.
Harm ONLY comes to oil, paper, alcohol & drug companies that can’t compete fairly.
Then again, thats the ONLY reason it ever became illegal.
Please stop using THEIR evil word for nature’s BEST source of oxygen, protein, & fiber!
Did I forget medicine?
I just wanted to add , that I’m a 26 yr. old female that was born with heart problems & as I got older , I started having a lot of stomach pains , sleeping problems , & I have the fear of becoming fat . Smoking marijuana has helped me more that any prescribed drug ever has . I really wish that the U.S. would make it legal . I also have anxiety attacks more when I drive now , since my car wreck from last yr. than any other time . Smoking marijuana has been my main medicine to help me through it . And I also have arthritis as well . Anyhow , I just wanted to add that in .
I feel that marijuana should be legelised for people that has the eating disorder of anerexia . And for people that deals with sleeping problems & has a lot of pain . I feel that it helps those people . Even the people that can’t focus very well or has anxiety or panic attacks . I just feel that marijuana is safer to smoke than taking pills or other drugs . I also feel they should band alcohol ! And they should do away with dangerous pills they prescribe for people that has anxiety or panic attacks . I can say that from my own personal experience .
I am thankful for the opportunity to have access to Medical Marijuana now. In the year 2000, I was stopped and the cop found three joints in a bag in the car. Before that episode, I never had a problem with anyone about my feelings to smoke or not to smoke pot. After that cop tore into me about my being a junkie, etc., I saw a different mindset I still don’t understand. pain is pain and if it’s helped, in any small way, by marijuana-no matter who needs it-it should be prescribed for that person. It’s a lot easier to get now and there’s no more trips to places I shouldn’t be going to find something that makes me a nicer and happier person-which makes a big difference in my life and for those who are close to me.
I was watching my Wife die before my eyes. There was nothing that the Doctors were giving her that was working. She has Lupus and the worst kind that attack her organs and joints. She got so bad that she couldn’t walk. She said it felt like broken glass between her joints. She ended up in the Hospital several times and the doctors asked me each time if I was ready for her death if treatment didn’t work. This started from when she was 19 till her mid 20′s. I felt there was nothing I could do to help her. She was always in pain.
Then I decided enough was enough and brought home a joint I got from a co-Worker and asked her to try it. She never smoked pot before and was totaly brainwashed that it was the worse thing in the world and a gate way drug. If you smoked Pot to her you were an Awfull person because her government told her so. She never even drank or smoked a cigarette in her life.
She had strong morals and here I am telling her as her husband to give it a try. It may help and if not we won’t talk about it again.
I just couldn’t watch my wife waste away before my eyes.
She said it was against everything she believed and if it was me asking then she will.
She smoked that joint. And proceded to get up and start dancing. She couldn’t believe it. She then got mad.
These are her exact words that day.
“My Government Lied To Me!”
I told her welcome to the real world.
My wife is now 33 years old she has never been back in the Hospital. I haven’t had to hear a doctor ask me if Im ready for my wife to die.She can function and we have 6 kids now. The Doctors pat themselfes on the back like they did something. Truth is we never told them for fear. It is Ilegal in our state to grow, posses, distribute, anything.
And you want to know were my vote is? Do you realy need to ask…
MARIJUANA SHOULD BE USED AS MEDICINE AND SHOULD BE SOLD PURE INSTEAD OF BUYING MARIJAUNA THEY MAY BE LACED WITH OTHER NON PURE DRUGS THAT CAN CAUSE PROBLEMS..BUT YES IT SHOULD BE LEGAL AND READILY AVAILABLE IN PUREST FRESHEST FORMS FOR PATIENTS AND OTHERS WHO NEED THIS HERBAL MEDICINE. EK
