Los Angeles City Councilman Bill Rosendahl/YouTube
Los Angeles City Councilman Bill Rosendahl announced something fantastic today on YouTube: his cancer is in remission.
In the two-minute vid, an optimistic Rosendahl thanks his support group, “incredible” doctor and of course, medical marijuana. “Medical marijuana has saved my life,” says Rosendahl, a known proponent for the healing powers of prescribed pot.
The man who represents L.A’s 11th District was diagnosed with Stage IV cancer in July of 2012 and was told he would not live to see the November election. “Frankly, I was given a death sentence,” he says.
But after going through “five months of hell,” he’s back, he’s better and he’s “looking forward to the next road ahead.”
