MEDICAL MARIJUANA

Thank you to the state Senate for passing the medical marijuana bill. 
Speaking as a registered nurse and for most of my peers, this is a 
compassionate response to those suffering from cancer and intractable 
pain. Cancer patients sometimes succumb to death from lack of 
nourishment. Marijuana is a valuable aid in improving appetite and 
fighting nausea.
