I suffer from arthritis and glaucoma. Both these diseases are very painful, but through the use of cannabis I am able to control the pain and I can live a normal, full live; I am no longer bedridden and miserable. Cannabis is one of the least destructive and most effective treatments I have tried for my conditions, and I have also witnessed improvements in those with depression, cancer and AIDS. I buy my medicine from the BC Compassion Club Society because it is a safer environment than the streets, the cannabis is less expensive, and when I buy at the Compassion Club instead of on the streets I feel like less of a criminal.
