Hi I am new and want to say hello
Hello everyone, recently my 18 yr old daughter has been diagnosed with epilepsy. Im not a smoker because I happen not to like it. I have no moral issue with it. Going on just the facts I believe it should be legal period. Especially for medical use. My daughter is all vegan all organic and we both feel the traditional epilepsy meds are not too safe. I have open mindedly examined the medical use of marijuana for treating epilepsy and the general safety of marijuana. I feel its the safest and best treeatment for her. But I live in pa. What can I do as a mother ans citizen to help in the legalization for medical use marijuana? Thanks in advance

Hi I am new and want to say hello
Welcome! The easiest thing to do would be contact your representative & senator. Look around the site a bit, there might be some basic letters & info that you can copy from while doing yours. Make sure that the person you contact is for your district though, others will usually not even read your letter/email or take your call because you are not their constituent. Also look up your local NORML chapter, they can be an invaluable resource. Good luck, & I hope your daughter is able to manage this safely and effectively with MMJ.

Redtails, Thanks for your reply. I will go on the NORML website. I wasnt aware that 13 states are allowing mmj. I also read today that pa is introducing a bill for mmj. The thought of my daughter on those heavy anti-seizure meds is terrifying. One of the possible side effects is suicide. Suicide.
Another is possible liver damage. Thanks again!

Hi I am new and want to say hello
That's how the drug companies make their money! Give you ineffective meds with bad side-effects then they can give you meds to control the side-effects...All in the name of the almighty $. They're the main reason anymore why marijuana isn't legal yet.
