    Illinois children and adults with epilepsy will soon be allowed to use marijuana to ease their symptoms under a law signed on Sunday by Democratic Governor Pat Quinn, the latest in a series of measures loosening restrictions on cannabis by U.S. states.

    The move to add epilepsy and other seizure disorders to the list of conditions legal to treat with marijuana or its extracts comes as numerous states have made medical use of the drug legal. Two states, Colorado and Washington, have legalized its recreational use.

    The Illinois law, which takes effect in January, would allow children who experience seizures to be treated with non-smokable forms of cannabis, as long as they have permission from a parent. The state is putting the final touches on a broader medical marijuana plan, a tightly regulated program whose regulations were finalized just last week.....snip~

    What do you think about this? Illinois also is allowing Vets with PTSD to be treated as well.

    Myself, I am all for allowing my bruthas and cuzins access to use any form of this they like. Any with PTSD.
