Proven beneficial effects of marijuana.

In the article Weed Dr. Sanjay Gupta CNN's chief medical correspondent talks about some of the content in his one hour documentary "Weeds".  He makes a comparison between the use of marijuana as a lifestyle and also a lifeline. Dr. Gupta gives an example of a five year old girl who could have up to 300 seizures per week caused by a rare condition called Dravet's syndrome. The use of medical marijuana helps reduce that number greatly and Dr. Gupta is still following up with her.
