Medical Marijuana and a Husband's Love for His Wife

I work in the Medical Marijuana industry. The husband of one of our patients came into the dispensary today. I asked how his wife was doing and how effective the product was in treating her particular condition. His response was overwhelming to me both emotionally and intellectually. I asked him if he minded putting his response in writing for me.

He was more than happy to do so and even included his name and phone number. I , however have chosen not to include his name in my blog regarding his testimonial:   

"My wife was diagnosed with a rare neurological disorder, Myasthenia Gravis approximately 9 years ago.  For the past 9 years we have gone to Neurologists from Shands Hospital in Gainesville, FL to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota.  She has taken prescription medications that side effects further hurt her emotionally and physically.  She was administered chemotherapy (Retuyimab and Cyclopaosphimide) over the course of a year which had no benefits and subsequently caused my wife to fall into deep depression.  

     My wife and I had given up, and assumed this was our life.  Then Medical Marijuana was legalized in Florida for medical use, and we decided to give it one last try.  To say Medical Marijuana changed our life for the better would be the century's largest understatement.  My wife, for the first time in 9 years, has been able to enjoy life to the fullest, and regain a sense of independence.  Medical Marijuana is a true miracle, and I hope some day legislators are able to open their eyes and completely legalize such a beneficial treatment."

Name Withheld 

Every day I entertain literally dozens of face to face accounts of the healing and life changing impact of Medical Cannabis

For those of you who place obstacles in the way of critically ill human beings acquiring Medical Cannabis, your argument is unequivocally devoid of both logic and compassion.

Please contact your State and Federal Legislators and demand they support measures to stop the ridiculous war on Cannabis.

Scot Husbands: No Plea Deal; He Chose To Fight

Last year, I wrote about the former Milford, Delaware elementary school Assistant Principal Scot Husbands h and his acquittal by a jury of  nine women and three men of charges that he molested young girls. Scot alleges and with much evidence to substantiate he was the victim of State sponsored false allegations - a quintessential witch hunt that has become more and more common.
I went into detail about how the State of Delaware, even after Scot was found innocent continued to go for their pound of flesh and make his life a living hell. Scot lost his career, has reputation trashed , and lost his mother as she (tragically) recently passed away.

Some thing amazing that I just discovered about Scot's case was that as he faced 30 years in prison, the State offered him a plea deal of  probation with no jail time if he pled guilty.
Scot refused their and essentially told the witch hunting prosecutors to stick their offer where the sun did not shine. I told Scot - facing the possibility of 30 years in prison, many an innocent man has accepted plea deals such as that simply out of fear of the State's power and calloused disregard for truth.
Awesome job Scot Husbands, you showed great courage standing up to the bastards like you did.
