Alabama Physician Speaks Out for Medical Marijuana Weigh pros, cons of pot for medical purposes The Birmingham News Sunday, March 23, 2008by Dr. Steve Rudd (Neurology) Alabamians for Compassionate Care is pushing a bill (HB679) to make marijuana legal for medical use in Alabama, and it's in a legislative committee. On behalf of the patients who need it and the ones who want help for them, I urge readers to check it out. Look at the pros and cons. Weigh the issues. Make up your mind. Then tell your state senator and representative. That's how we do things in Alabama. That's how we can change the rules. That's how we can lend a hand to those in need, even if we've never seen their faces and don't know their names. Steven Rudd is a physician and writer who lives in Birmingham. His latest novel, "Blues for Susannah," is now available in paperback at Amazon.com. E-mail:
