TAMPA – One mother will start treating her cancer-ravaged daughter with whole plant medical marijuana even though the state is two months away from the Amendment 2 vote on whether to legalize medical marijuana.

WTSP-TV reported earlier this year on how Moriah Barnhart sought legal counsel to somehow get her daughter access to use medical cannabis under Florida’s medical necessity doctrine based on a 1991 ruling.

Barnhart said she had success while treating her daughter with cannabis in Colorado, but decided to move back to Florida to be closer to family and her support system.
