Marinol is the pill form of marijuana and is prescribed to terminally ill people, for pain stemming from various conditions,as well as many many other uses..This pill has been legal in all 50 states for quite sometime. Yet the federal government can step in basically above the law. Last year a dr in California lost his license,practice,and went to prison for writing a prescription to a terminally ill cancer patient. I don\'t really know who to send this to but I think this is something that needs to be heard.

Seeing this grow makes the exhaustion feel slightly more manageable. I am pushing forward because the reality of what happened to that doctor remains unacceptable.

Compassion should come first. Watching my mom in pain was horrible and she deserved better options than what the law allows.

My uncle suffered so much before he passed away. There is no reason to deny people relief when they are already going through hell.

So sad that a doctor gets locked up for doing his job. What is this world coming to?

Legalize it already. Science is clear on this and the laws are just way behind the times.

IT IS A PLANT. STOP THE PRISON SENTENCES FOR HELPING PEOPLE IN PAIN.

This is rediculous. The government needs to stay out of the doctors office and let them treat their patients.
