That's what I was addressing.

I've been on opiates for 25 years but only during the day. I wake up frequently in pain at night, that's what I'd love to have medical cannabinoids for. Unfortunately, this state is medical cannabis in name only. The board in charge of processing applications is almost a year behind and got chewed out by a judge two weeks ago. You have to be nearly dead to get it.
