“I felt like a broken record trying to convince my cousin to get his card in Corvallis. After being diagnosed with HIV in 2002 he has really struggled. I think he knew how much medical marijuana could help him, but he can be very stubborn. I don’t know what finally changed his mind but one day he came to me and said he was ready to try it. After using it for about a week, he decided it was something that he thought he should get. He didn’t feel comfortable buying it illegally so getting his medical marijuana card was a must. We filled out the application together and scheduled an appointment at the marijuana clinic to get the doctors referral. One quick trip to the Corvallis, Oregon Department of Human Services and he had his OMMP card. Thanks for all your help!”
