The Next 14 States to Legalize Marijuana

If it is not legalized your doctor will never prescribe it for you. I however will somehow get some after my next stroke. Don't do this because it is currently illegal and I have no medical background to even let you know what research says. Your doctor is the gatekeeper even if s/he knows absolutely nothing about how to get you 100% recovered. I don't either but at least I have some ideas. Note some of these still have possession as a felony.
My 13 reasons for marijuana use post-stroke.

  1. In Massachusetts, medical MJ is legalized, but few towns are willing to have dispensaries or farms built. We have a referendum vote for recreational use scheduled for November. My bet is it'll pass and our government stonewalling and NIMBY attitude will continue.
