PORTLAND, Ore. – At the Mothers Against Misuse and Abuse clinic in Southeast Portland, Sandee Burbank relieved her arthritic hands with a dose of medical marijuana using an ointment she made herself from cannabis, glycerin and beeswax.
Though her official prescription is for pain due to three car accidents, she said her anxiety also is helped by marijuana, which replaced the pharmaceutical medications she used to take.
“The side effects were so severe, I just couldn’t do it,” she said.
Burbank is the founder of Mothers Against Misuse and Abuse, or MAMA. Her daughter, Jenny, is among her employees. Even though Jenny is not a medical marijuana patient herself, she speaks to community groups about it.
“(We let) them know it is a drug,” Jenny said. “We try to teach people it will interact with other drugs (and) especially that there are a lot of other forms besides smoking it because that’s one of the things people have wrong.”
