MARIJUANA CAN BE GATEWAY TO LIVING

"Marijuana is a gateway drug that leads people to using harder, more
illicit drugs." I've heard this and the more I hear it the more I
speak up about the need for our state to join the many other
compassionate states allowing for the medical use of marijuana.

When I have the chance to tell people my story or the stories of
others who are in real physical pain, I agree with them that medical
marijuana can be a gateway drug for me. It will allow me to stop using
many of these powerful narcotics I currently must use for pain.
OxyContin, Dilaudid, The Fentanyl patch and Lyrica, just to name a
few. For me, I see it as a gateway back to life.
