I am a medical marijuana patient (card carrying in two states) and a military veteran. I have chronic pain as well as glaucoma and a few other problems. My wife also suffers daily from chronic pain.

The V.A. can not give me a natural medicine that WORKS. Instead they want me to take PHARMACEUTICALS that KILL my liver and one of them lists the side effects as, "SUDDEN DEATH SYNDROME". I Don't fucking think so!

SO, my wife and I take "as needed" and will be moving to either Colorado or Washington as we moved to a state this past summer where there is no medical program and we deal with PAIN on a daily basis. We want to be functional and able to lead productive lives as we did before. SHAME on you for making marijuana out to be something BAD.

I hope you never have glaucoma or something that is CHRONICALLY painful, but I wish you could "see" and then would understand before you start judging others. Not EVERYONE abuses medicine.
