WHILE I WAIT FOR MY LICENCE, I AM HARASSED

To the Editor,

I have lost all my independence, dignity, mobility and use of my
hands. I am in constant pain. I suffer severe muscle spasms all due
to advanced MS.

I exist in a nursing home for the elderly. I am 63 years old.

The only way I can tolerate my condition is with the use of marijuana
- - a recognized treatment for MS.

I applied for my licence to use medical marijuana last Sept. 14. I
have had no reply.

I had a small amount of marijuana rolled in cigarette in a urine
sample bottle. It was in my purse in my dresser drawer.

Last Saturday two nurses tried to confiscate it. I said they had no
right to go into my purse, it was my private belonging.

I took my purse and left the building in my electric wheelchair. I
was on a path in the woods about to smoke one of my cigarettes when a
policeman came and searching my purse and took my cigarettes.
