Letter to the editor: Please allow marijuana in Morgan Hill
I hope the Morgan Hill City Council does the right thing and allows a marijuana dispensary in Morgan Hill.As it is, I have to travel to San Jose to get CBD, a non-psychoactive extract of marijuana. I use it for my bursitis in my left hip, and by using it, I am able to walk five miles without pain.

Where does it come from? Our daughter is horrified what her friends will think so she wears long sleeves everyday to school.
