I only wish we'd allowed the use of medical marijuana when my mother was alive. She suffered for so many decades needlessly from horrible pain. Hopefully, other will not have to suffer. -

All my friends are dead from pharmaceuticals. All my nicest best friends I grew up with are locked up for smoking, gettin caught, failing drug test, because they're being a victim, bring treated far worse for committing a victimless crime. U don't like me smoking in my home? I don't come in your house and slap the aspirin out of your hands and take you to jail; lock you up against your will, forcing you to lose your job from your spouse and children because I don't like aspirin.REPORT COMMENTS

There are folks that don't know what it is like so I want to tell you how it goes for most of us: You are healthy then one day you can't walk or lower/raise your arm from pain. You see a surgeon, he operates, scar tissue forms or an abnormality is found and suddenly there is no cure and they say live with it. First you lie crying for a few months, then because you cried so much you begin to hide from the world and cry to yourself, then the tears dry up because you eventually run out and you stay in a foul mood for 20 years not visiting friends/family or even going to stores because you know how you look and react in certain situations. Next even the ones that used to love you don't want to go see that mean old man because he hates the world and hides from everyone. This is antisocial, you know it, but there is nothing you or all the doctors in the world can do about it but prescribe narcotics... I've tried them all and all that changed was I went through killer with-drawls that I don't believe my heart could ever take again... the pain never stopped. Then I smoked some illegal marijuana during an especially bad month I was having... it didn't kill the pain, but it did improve the anti-social behavior and even allowed me to be happy for a few hours... and I didn't have to go through killer with-drawls when I ran out! I did however go right back to my old ways of misery because I couldn't afford to be locked up, mentally or physically, for looking to buy it. This isn't the babblings of a pot-head... I know what I'm talking about and would do anything short of breaking the law to try and enjoy the limited time I have left on earth... and I am not alone.REPORT COMMENTS

Medical marijuana helps with a number of different things, such as chronic pain, nerve damage, joint pain etc. it is by no means dangerous. Marijuana can not kill you, but yet narcotics and other types of medicine that can cause kidney failure, liver damage and all sorts of other side effects are being sold to any an pretty much everyone. so why not stop the chance of all that happening and end the war on something that causes no harm to the consumer or any around them? And lets not forget about how much money the government is loosing out on. so lets just stop this pointless war on a plant that does nothing but help, an lets make this place a little bit better ta live in.REPORT COMMENTS

24 states are now leagle all have subtantial tax income. Just decriminalizeing weed would bring more money. Just from the jails, not wasting money and time on putting people behind bars for a natural plant. I also have anxiety and will not shove a gov. Approved med in my mouth. Im a happy sailor knowing what im taking.REPORT COMMENTS

These seem to be reasonable control of the use of marijuana for medical purposes, only. I do not advocate the free use or sale for other purposes.REPORT COMMENTS

I have been HIV positive for about ten years. Just a little over a year ago, my doctor in Indiana started prescribing me Marinol to combat my constant nausea and loss of appetite and weight. It really worked like a charm, with no side effects. Now, since moving to Kentucky, I have been told this drug is illegal to prescribe here. I mean, REALLY???? Are you kidding me!? This drug is well-researched and has been in use all over the country for thirty or more years. This situation is just unbelievable to me.REPORT COMMENTS

Recently told NEVER take an NSAID again due to perforated ulcer. Every narcotic you allow to be given has the potential to kill me and I have a right to medication that will help not harm meREPORT COMMENTS
