I personally do not use marijuana but I know many people who have used it to help with various health problems. The bottom line is that it does help those people in coping with pain, the nausea from chemotherapy and many other diseases without the unpleasant and damaging side affects of many other prescription meds. My son had cancer ( leukemia ) for 15 months. After he died I found a pot pipe in the pocket of his fishing vest. I'm sure he hid that from me because at the time I was a high school teacher and his step father was a police officer. But I think if I had known it then, I would have sat on the porch with him and had a toke or so.
