White Dog Cafe - Storytelling - Medical Marijuana is a Necessity

Cheryl Miller’s 30 year battle with multiple sclerosis has left her unable to walk or take care of herself. Like Miller, tens of thousands of seriously ill US citizens have tried many medications before discovering medical marijuana works exponentially better to ease their symptoms. Everyday, they are forced to choose between breaking the law for relief or living with inferior but legal medications. With the help of Jim Miller, her husband and caregiver, we will hear Cheryl’s story and of her tireless efforts to change the law on medical marijuana. A short documentary on her plight will be shown. We will also be joined by Ken Wolski, R.N., M.P.A., an outspoken medical marijuana advocate from the healthcare community.

Storytelling night provides the opportunity to hear the life stories of a variety of peoples and gives voice to underrepresented groups such as ex-offenders, senior citizens, gays, youth, immigrants and homeless people. They also provide a forum to exchange perspectives at a personal level on experiences such as war, civil rights marches, parenting issues, and illness.

Optional à la carte dinner at 6pm is followed by storytelling at 7:30pm. Reservations recommended (215) 386-9224. Open seating at bar for drinks, snacks or desserts. Singles welcome at group tables.
