Georgia residents have been enjoying the law allowing the use of medical marijuana that was passed 2 years ago. However, a bill is going to limit some of it.

A father who uses medical marijuana for his son in Georgia is strongly against what many other lawmakers want. Sebastien Cotte, whose son Jagger has a rare and terminal neurological disorder called Leigh's disease, is disappointed at Georgia lawmakers who passed the bill, AP reported. Cotte has been using cannabis oil for his son's Leigh's disease. He is worried that the new bill might harm Georgia's two-year-old state. Using the cannabis oil has many advantages like cutting back on use of pharmaceuticals, including opioids, to treat his son's seizures, breathing problems, and other symptoms, Cotte added.

"They are playing games with our kids' lives," said Cotte. "The Senate is trying to create a solution to a problem that does not exist." Georgia Senate wanted to be in line with other states regarding THC, which makes users high of marijuana. This week, according to The Cannabist, the senate has approved of the bill that cuts down the level of tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC to three percent. It was five percent before and the decrease might affect many kids and adults that need it.

The vote was 41-12. The Senate is going to want some changes about Georgia's medical marijuana program, Rep. Allen Peake who sponsored the bill explained. There have been 1,300 people who are in the program and there has been no problem with it, Peake said. He also said that negotiations will continue to get the Congress and Senate what they want. However, it is people's lives that they are interfering.

It is very dangerous to just change something that most people in the Senate do not really know about or do not have a firsthand experience too just to please them. It is very dangerous, Cotte said.
