In this episode of the podcast I get to catch up with Tony (Philip Anthony Bevington) who was recently in court for growing his own cannabis to produce an oil to help with his stage 4 kidney disease. He tell me how he condition is improving since starting cannabis medicines and it continues to improve with continued access now through a private prescription.
Tony received a 2 year suspended sentence for his crime of trying to improve the quality of his life with cannabis medicines. He is now going to campaign for cannabis legalisation and for his right to grow this plant and produce his own oil without having to pay so much for it.
I hope you enjoy the interview and thanks again to Tony for taking the time to speak with me and for continuing to fight for cannabis legalisation.
