LET DOCTORS PRESCRIBE IT

Marijuana should be accessible to all who need it for medical purposes
prescribed by your doctor ("Michigan to vote on legalizing marijuana
for medical use," April 29).

Marijuana is not as harmful as those drugs they advertise on TV, where
the voice says "you shouldn't use this medication if you have blah
blah, or side effects. Talk to your doctor immediately if you
experience nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, tiredness, loss of
appetite, dark urine, or yellowing of the skin." I haven't heard any
side effects on marijuana yet.
