The Mason County couple who’ve been advocating for Kentucky to legalize medical marijuana for a decade are celebrating. Michelle and Eric Crawford were in Frankfort last week and helped push Senate Bill 47 across the finish line. It was signed by Governor Beshear on Friday. Eric Crawford has been wheelchair-bound since an auto accident and said marijuana helps ease his symptoms better than opioids.
“Opioids make me feel better, but they don't make the pain go away. Or treat the pain or make my spasms go away. Cannabis either makes me tolerate the pain or makes the pain go away.”
