Carter Singleton, 65, said marijuana helped him overcome the effects of chemotherapy and he regained some of the 80 pounds he lost.

A 65-year-old Mount Healthy man, convicted of growing marijuana he said he used to stimulate his appetite while undergoing cancer treatment, was placed on three years probation Thursday.

Hamilton County Common Pleas Judge John Andrew West sympathized with Carter Singleton's medical reason for using the illegal drug, but said in the future Singleton must rely on prescription drugs.
