While lawmakers in various regions have repeatedly shown to be in favor of seeking to waste time investigating the effects of cannabis oil, before respecting the natural right of people to access it, many families and individuals continue to suffer because of the war on drugs that the state maintains.
For cannabis oil specifically, many families have started using this to help their children seek remedy from their epileptic seizures, even though you might still find many medical professionals today who declare that cannabis offers no medicinal value.
For some families who have medicated with cannabis oil, either the parents or the child, they've seen dramatic consequences for their actions. Some have even had their children removed from their care over those actions, for trying to find healing with a controversial but natural substance.
Families and individuals just want to consume cannabis oil in peace.
Galloway doesn't want the medication to be confiscated if she returns home but she understandably misses her family living back in Scotland and wants to see them again.
No individual should have to uproot their entire life just to be able to peacefully consume cannabis. To move away from friends they have known their entire lives, their neighborhoods, and families, all because some people have an issue with a plant. How many more children and families will have to suffer while state supporters and lawmakers continue to insist that they have a right to tell people what they can or cannot consume.
