US government supplied Medical Marijuana Patient Corrine Millet is deceased.
|
“I am not afraid of a plant”, was Corrine’s thought when it came to finding a solution to the glaucoma slowly blinding her and the arthritic pain that had forced her into a wheelchair.
A mother in a small Nebraska town and the widow of an MD she received the aid of her own physician and became one of the original NIDA supplied cannabis patients.
With the continuous use of low-grade marijuana her blindness was arrested within days and her arthritic pain became tolerable immediately.
Corrine wanted the same for other patients. At the time of her death in December 2007, Corrine was a sitting and Founding Board member of the national non-profit, Patients Out of Time. |
Corrine, with other federal patients and cannabis health experts, created Patients Out of Time in 1995 to educate health care professionals and the US public about the therapeutic efficacy of cannabis.
“Who are they? Why are they doing this?” Why were information, research and human experience being dismissed or negated by her federal government when she and a token number of others were being clinically helped by medical marijuana grown by the same US government? This was Corrine’s concern and her answer was clinical cannabis education.
When Corrine helped found Patients Out of Time about 25% of the US public thought cannabis is medically helpful, 14 years later about 80% now know cannabis is safe and therapeutic.
Corrine Millet took the federal government’s cannabis medicine and then gave out some of her own education, to fight the injustice and ignorance of that same government’s cannabis policy.
I say she was a heroine for all Patients Out of Time.
