Petition Make medicinal cannabis legal for long term mental/physical health conditions

I have had cerebral palsy since birth and suffer with chronic pain and stiffness every day causing a very limited life. Now being housebound, I would love your help to enjoy life and I believe medicinal cannabis (high cbd/low thc) could help control/relieve symptoms for many health conditions.
