Medical Marijuana

Timothy Garon is a 56 year old musician who is desperate need of a new liver. However, as a result of using marijuana in the past Garon was denied a transplant. What about the patients who use marijuana with the consent of a doctor for medical purposes should they be treated any different? This is the question that arises from the decision. This is a very interesting thought because should patients who at one point in their lives used marijuana be denied a transplant, but patients who were encouraged by a doctor to do so not?
