a plea of hope for a better life

I don't do anything illegal, at least, as I understand the myriad of laws. However, I wish something that is now considered illegal could be made available to me. I have many illnesses multiple sclerosis, chronic pelvic pain, Fibromyalgia, and a few others. I suffer everyday. I ask that you consider what making marijuana legal might offer to those of us with illnesses. Please do not prevent those of us who suffer the hope that a different drug might help us to live better lives.

Why is this important?

I have so many illnesses that have rendered my life nothing but pain. I would like the hope of trying something that enables me to smile through more of my life.
