MARIJUANA IS THE ONLY AID FOR SOME PATIENTS

The Chief Deputy Attorney in Clark County said Question 9 has nothing to do
with medical marijuana when he testified before the State Board of Health.

That certainly is not true for me and many other people in Nevada. I have
Raynaudis Disease where stress and cold cause my capillaries to close. I
was in danger of losing my toes. Marijuana opens the blood vessels and is
the only thing that helps my condition.

Because the federal government has prevented any objective research on
cannabis, there are many of us who have diseases that cannabis helps but
are not covered under the new medical marijuana law. Passage of Question 9
would give us access to this plant without having to become criminals to
acquire this medicine.
