A medical marijuana pickup place north of Downtown Houston is affording those with critical ailments a new place to find relief through what it calls 'compassionate cultivation.'
HOUSTON, Texas -- As of Tuesday, there is one more way for some people to get their hands on medical marijuana in Houston.For Frank Cano of Katy, greater access comes as a relief.
"On the other medications, I would wake up, and I would be sluggish or kind of be in a stupor. I wake up in the morning just feeling great," Cano said."If somebody saw me walking down the street, they wouldn't think, 'Oh, there's somebody that uses marijuana,' and in the circles that I run in, I think people would be surprised," Cano said.
"If you had asked me 18 months ago if I would be on medical marijuana and would be feeling this well, and my life would have had these sorts of improvements, I would not have taken that wager," Cano said. "We have virtual consultation rooms here where if they don't have a prescription, we can introduce them to a doctor, they can have a virtual consultation, wait a few minutes and pick up their prescription here, or they can do it in advance," Denton explained.
