I found this very interesting and heart felt article reaching out to President Obama, asking him to please stop the madness where medical marijuana is concerned. Here is a short excerpt from the article and link to the whole article too.
"And what about the parents of the children who have died awaiting access, Mr. President? Would you tell a Dorito joke to Phil and Paula Joana, whose beautiful daughter Sabina died while she waited for the opportunity to see if her intractable epilepsy would respond to cannabis therapy? While the Joanas watch other families of epileptic children celebrate weeks, months, or even years seizure-free using cannabis, knowing they have buried their daughter, could you look them in the eye and tell them that cannabis reform should not be a priority? As a parent, you should know better, and you should be ashamed."
