Sweet (Legal, Medicinal, Prescribed) Marijuana

 

Ever the cutting edge guy, I have photographed someone smoking marijuana. Legally. After all the fuss has passed and people see it as quaint. Hey, Cristie, take a walk on the mild side. Seriously, this is Cristie Vito, smoking a prescribed joint. Before Covid, she had never smoked marijuana. Then she became ill with Crohn's Disease. This smoking procedure alleviates the pain connected with Crohn's. And the pain is hell. Marijuana is one of the best nondestructive methods of addressing that pain. I know a few women who are ill with Crohn's, and they take the marijuana as prescribed. It works. Also, it was a cheesy excuse to show a femme fatale smoking. I may, or may not, do some more joint shots in noir style.
