"I use a water pipe to use just the amount I need to relieve muscle spasms and pain. It also calms me considerably. It has allowed me to lead a normal life rather than one dulled by prescription medications.
"We have been honest with our children, teaching them the health and legal risk/benefits of all drug use. They appreciate our honesty and we have a loving, trusting relationship. Now they are adults. The marijuana laws are inequitable, ineffective, unenforceable and counter-productive. It is time to judge all drugs by the same standard and make marijuana legal."
