And that is that a lot of the patients I talked with who've turned to medical marijuana for help, weren't turning to medical marijuana because of its benefits or the balance of risks and benefits, or because they thought it was a wonder drug, but because it gave them control over their illness.
A maioria dos pacientes com que conversei, que se voltaram para a ajuda da maconha medicinal, não recorreram a ela devido aos seus benefícios, ou ao equilíbrio entre riscos e benefícios, ou por acharem que era uma droga muito boa, mas sim porque ela dava a eles o controle sobre sua enfermidade.
