The University of Washington Medical Center is now backpedaling away from their earlier admission that Garon was, in fact, denied the transplant because of medical marijuana. They now vaguely cite other factors, but it's too late: Two separate physicians, including Transplant chief Dr. Jorge Reyes, already admitted in an Associated Press story over the weekend that marijuana was the reason.
In that story, Dr. Reyes said Garon was denied the transplant because he, Dr. Reyes, feared that Garon wouldn't be able to stop smoking marijuana after the operation. And another UW doctor claimed that marijuana commonly contains mold that could cause organ rejection in a transplant patient. Both of these are tacit admissions that marijuana was the reason Tim Garon was rejected as a transplant recipient.
Tim Garon did nothing wrong; medical marijuana is legal in the state of Washington, and is less toxic to the liver than anything else he could have taken to lesson his nausea and pain.

That's it. I've getting fucking fed up with people who let other people die for NO FUCKING REASON! The government and health physicians, doctors, I can't stand them. How can people just sit by and LET this shit happen?! We're talking about a LIFE at stake here. So he smoked a little pot. Jesus, like pot has ever killed anybody. He was using it to treat Hepatitis. None of this makes any sense. I'm going to go kill myself now because everyone is so stupid.
Please watch a video called (Run from the Cure) If you know someone with cancer please have them watch it. They can then decide what treatment to go with.
Also look up U.S. Patent #6630507 awarded to U.S. Dept. of Health in 2003. Print it out and send it to your Representatives. They can't argue when the FACTS are in front of them! IT PROVES SUPER MEDICAL value of CANNABIS! WE have been LIED to for a very long time! Stand up our numbers are strong! FREEDOM

Here's a list of the RICH drug and alcohol abusers (and one who had cancer) some of whom got transplants despite in some cases continuing drug and alcohol abuse: Mickey Mantle, Larry Hagman, John Phillips, Larry Kramer (HIV-HCV and STILL received transplant) Steve Jobs (billionaire). We can't save everyone but is it necessary to blatantly favor the rich and let the poor rot slowly?
