I am unaware of the Weed curing anything, but I have heard from numerous sources, which I believe to be true, that it does assist with controlling nausea and aid in restoring appetite to persons undergoing chemical therapy. Perhaps thats why it was prescribed? In any event, while I oppose LEGALIZING marijuanna on principal purposes (why create another addictive drug, even cigarettes I wish had never been discovered) I do support MEDICAL use of marijuanna jdn

"How can the courts denie it, if what you say is true this would have gone to supreme court and medical profession would be behind it. instead some nut post it cures tumors?" Here is one of those nuts: cnn.com I posted nothing that suggested to you pot would cure the woman. And BTW this case will be going to the supreme court. This womans doctor testified that pot is the only drug that allows her to stay alive. That without it she will die. The court of appeals said that even if all of that is true, she still can be arrested under federal law. They did that within the last 48 hours. The federal war against pot is a war against the sick and dying.
