know someone with a 'script?

Oh, and I knew a guy in his 70s who had cancer and he didn't believe in taking pills or anything, so he just smoked MJ all the time. Nobody really bothered him about it.

 

there's some great articles at www.freedomtoexhale.com/raich.htm that discuss Angel Raich and her case against the Supreme Court

 

I went to California last year and got my prescription from a doctor in Lake County. I was visiting Eddy Lepp at the time, interviewing him for an article I wrote in the latest issue of International Cannagraphic magazine (I was also the editor at the time...).

Eddy Lepp has a large ranch that he generously let medical patients use as a place to grow their weed, as part of his ministry. It is his religious belief that smoking cannabis is a religious duty, and that cannabis is medicine for sick people.

The Federal Government thanked him for this by confiscating some 32,000 plants from his fields and he is now facing four life sentences and fines. We are trying to help him beat these unfair charges.

But back to the question, when I visited the doctor in California, he asked me what I wanted to use cannabis for. I told him I have high blood pressure, and that it seems to work better than the pills. He checked me out, wrote the prescription for me, and said "you'd best stop taking them damned pills if you're going to use cannabis, as your blood pressure is now too low."

So that's my experience. Whenever I don't have cannabis I feel uptight. With it I feel relaxed and confident.

Peacefully,
