23. I hope you live where you have a legal right to the best health care for you

sadly, so many of us don't.

then there's the added anxiety of worrying about breaking the law - of course, some people in mmj legal states have also been jailed for using mmj for cancer side effects, so, until this nation decides to stop hurting those who are already hurting - that's the nation we live in. It's immoral, imo.

Here's a link to a science-based medical marijuana advocacy group's forum.

http://www.medicalcannabis.com/

The Drug Policy Forum group here has a lot of links - some include different articles about people who have come out in support of medical mj after their own successful use for side effects. There are two pages with a lot of earlier links about various studies.

Let us know how you are faring. Best wishes to you.
