who no longer have seizures because they use Marijuana, and can lead somewhat normal lives now.............

However, there is one I know, who had done a GREAT job of maintenance in one of the local major school systems for eight years,. Despite having weekly seizures, they school system let him stay on. One day, he was called in and told his drug test showed use of Marijuana, he said yes and hoped they noticed the lack of any seizures since he started using it on the advice of his Medical Doctor.
He pointed out that it was legal now in Colorado. They told him that it was still illegal at the Federal Level, and since the school system received Federal Dollars, they had to dismiss him.............
