My mother ended up losing everything and could not afford the medications that she once had. If it was not for Kratom, she would have never been able to withstand the pain that comes with her illness. We are planning to move to Virginia to be with my partner and his family, but Kratom suddenly being banned will create quite a hardship for both me and my mother. Please, please do not place this ban. It has been an incredible gift to those in need, and from personal experience, there has been no adverse side effects. God bless.
