People ought not judge what they don't know, instead
just observe and be realistic. Sure there have
facts known that pot has been use on a recreational
level. Most people view it as a bad thing that
causes broken homes, and death. When in fact it
has and still to this day is being used for
medicinal purposes.

I for one agree that it should be legalized fro medicinal

reasons. Some illness are control by pot, and some illnesses
relieved while using it. There are some diseases
that really need to use pot to help with their pain.

I have two auto immune diseases one is Crohn's and
the other is Lupus. An autoimmune disease is a disease
where your body attack itself, and I have two.

I'm always in pain especially in the winter time.
That time of year is unbearable for me. Folks
don't seem to understand being in constant
excruciating pain, that makes you paralyzed.

Here are some of the things I go through with my diseases.
But there is one thing I failed to mentioned, I don't
have a large colon, it has been removed entirely.

Crohn's Disease

1.Hair loss
2.Weight loss
3.Painful skin rashes
4.Nausea
5.Vomiting
6.increased white blood cells
7.loss of appetite
8.pale skin
9.high fever
10.Crohn's give you Lupus
11.Severe abdominal pain and swelling

Lupus

1.Sores in mouth or on tongue
2.Red and purple blotches on skin
3.Hair loss
4.Entire body sore to touch and swelling all over my body
5.Severe Neck arthritis
6.sun sensitivity

Lupus is a by product of the crohn's, if you got crohn's
disease you will get Lupus eventually I did.
When the medicines the doctor give don't help,
I do result to pot to ease my suffering.
