MARIJUANA COULD HELP CANCER PATIENTS
I suppose the people who are so violently opposed to legalizing
marijuana for medicinal purposes have never retched agonizingly for a
year with chemotherapy. I would have tried anything to keep from vomiting.
Would it have made me a hop head? Absolutely not! That whole idea is
despicable to me.
I understand it can be taken in tablet form, but I don't know that for
sure. Smoking leaves or anything else is repugnant to me.
During one week, I lost 11 pounds. That was pretty alarming. Since
one's electrolytes get out of balance, one can die.
So I just wanted to speak for those who are still in the process of
all that. They are too sick to speak for themselves.
