    Please help!

    I'm writing an essay and I was wondering if any of you fine gentlemen(and ladies) could point me in the direction of an article about a medical marijuana patient that I could use to advocate for California laws. A reputable website (or a website a teacher would consider reputable) is preferred, but I'm thankful for any help.

    I cant think of any one person that is documented but in The Union the host or w.e you would call him interviews a man with ms and it clearly shows the two different states hes in when high and not. One functional one not.


    only thing i can think of that could possibly help you

    edit- There has to be some things documented for cannabis and chrons disease its pretty common and many people find only relief from cannabis. So maybe do a search on that.

    if you have some type of pain then the marijuana could then be used medically.

    i dont think granny mentioned it (sorry if you did) but you could definitely write about irv rosenfeld, one of the few federally recognized and supplied medical marijuana patients still alive. he has a rare bone disease iirc.

    Also, Elvy Musika is another survivor of the federal MMJ program who has a few things on the net. I had the great pleasure to meet (and hug!) her at the the recent OGF event up in Portland!

    Honey, I am always happy to see my list go up anywhere! (excepting porn and "hate" sites) Just get the PDF and don't try to copy it from GC! Unfortunately, when the URLs are shown in a shortened form, they just don't copy and paste! :(

    It's always a trip when I find my List on "wild sites" - sites where someone has copied and pasted the List from GC or elsewhere. One time, I found a pirated version of my list on a RUSSIAN MJ forum. :eek: I am now a member of OLK-peace! I had to give them the "real thing" and that involved joining so I could post! (I now get Viagra ads in six different languages, including Russian! :p )

    So post the List up, with my blessings! I don't care that much whether I get credit or not, since every time my list is shared, we get closer to legalization! And that is WAY more important than stroking my ego!

    Educating others is the only certain way to get cannabis legal! :smoke:
