Terminal Cancer Patient Charles Witt - Medical Marijuana Testimony

Background:

On August 4, 2009, Charles "Chuck" Witt, and a few other patients from AAC - Apothecary's Assistants Collective, went to the city council meeting to try and prevent the city of Signal Hill from closing the collective in the next day or two...

We stopped them from closing us that week, but within a few months we moved very close-by in Long Beach - a much more progressive city, and where I live and do my art.

A Very Sad Note:

Our collective member and terminal cancer patient Charles "Chuck" Witt, who appears in this video, passed away at 10:30pm on October 30, 2009 - less than three months after this city council meeting. We miss him very much...

Our collective provided free medicine to Mr. Witt, and we will be setting up a Terminal Patient Fund in his honor to keep providing free medicine to our terminal patients.

More information about this will be posted on our website at aacollective.com once plans are finalized

Until later, best of health,
Jon, onehumanbeing
