I am a conservative Republican. I am a senior editor of National Review, Ronald Reagan's favorite magazine. I've written for it for 26 years. I support the use of medical marijuana because of my politics, but I'm also for it because I've had to use it. In 1992 I got testicular cancer.
Any chemotherapy is harsh because all chemotherapy is poison.
You're dumping poison into your bloodstream, killing millions of cells, in order to kill the thousands of malignant cells which will not recover. Because it is poison, the body wants to get rid of it. That's why chemotherapy causes nausea. I had smoked marijuana maybe ten times in college during the seventies. I even inhaled.
