Patients who use marijuana fear worst if forced to stop

Unless the DEA decides to crack down, I think people will continue to do as they've been doing. All this ruling has done is create scofflaws.

I had a cousin who started his career as an MP in the Army, then became a state trooper. While he was a trooper he worked undercover narcotics for awhile. He also went to law school at night and later became a state's attorney. He died of colon cancer at age 49. Prior to his death he was smoking marijuana to help ease the side effects of chemo. I'm convinced his life was prolonged by doing that. It also made him more comfortable in his last days.

He never considered what he was doing as drug abuse, it was medicine.
