How Cannabis Supports Patients in Their Fight Against Cancer
October marks KOLAS Wellness Month, a time we dedicate to stories of strength, education, and the medical cannabis community. As we honor Breast Cancer Awareness Month, it’s important to remember that cannabis reform isn’t just about business, banking, or tax policy — it’s about people. Patients rely on safe, affordable, and accessible cannabis for their health and quality of life.
That’s why we’re sharing highlights from a powerful perspective published by Marijuana Moment — calling for cannabis reform that prioritizes patients first.
The Core Argument: Patients Over Profits
Much of the national conversation around cannabis reform centers on banking regulations, tax policy, and federal market expansion. While these issues matter to businesses, they don’t always address what patients need most.
Medical cannabis patients face:
- High costs driven by overregulation and taxation.
- Limited access due to inconsistent state laws and federal restrictions.
- Stigma and barriers that prevent open discussion with healthcare providers.
The op-ed stresses that without putting patients at the heart of reform, the movement risks losing credibility — and failing those who need cannabis the most.

Why This Matters for KOLAS Patients
At KOLAS, we see firsthand how medical cannabis improves lives every day. Whether it’s easing cancer treatment side effects, supporting chronic pain management, or helping patients regain wellness, cannabis is more than a product — it’s a lifeline.
That’s why we align with the call to action: cannabis reform must focus on patient care, affordability, and accessibility above all else.
Real Stories of Strength
Patient stories give this movement its purpose. For example, an ovarian cancer patient shared her journey of living longer with the help of cannabis. Her story is a reminder of what’s at stake:
