I did find out that once the state passes the medical marijuana a person has to have a 420 card which is a card stating that you have the right to be carrying medical marijuana with you but if anyone ever gave a person some they can end up in prison.
To get the 420 card a person has to see a lawyer and get all the paper work taken care of, and have a birth certificate, Drs. note that you are to have the medical marijuana and for what medical purpose then you also have to pay a certain amount to the county and state you live in to get the card. I would have to pay anywhere from $100-$250 to both the state and county to have the card in my hands it's a money making scheme for the state and county to make money when all a person should really have to do is see a lawyer to get everything taken care of.
Here's wishing you the best of luck and May God Bless You,

Sounds nearly as involved and expensive as what I'm going through just to get a prescription for Chantix (to stop smoking).
I don't really know anything about the effectivness of marijuanna on seizures or other illnesess but if it does help I fear, like many medications, it will be so over priced that those truly in need will do without. My mother is diabetic, has parkinsins(sp) and liver disease and often must pick and choose which meds to get. Even with medicare its often more than she can afford.
