22 Sept 2009 - The condition of US cannabis activist Jack Herer collapsed after a speech he gave at a law reform rally last week, is said to be stable but still critical.
Herer was brought to Legacy Emanuel Medical Centre in Portland Oregon after suffering a heart attack following an emotional speech at the 2009 Hempstalk festival. In the speech Herer called for opposition to the marijuana taxation plans that are currently being brought forward.
The weed warrior was kept in a medically induced coma in the intensive care unit of the hospital. Family members told friends he was brought out of coma last Saturday. As of that day there was little change in Jack Herer's condition. He has not awakened, and is in stable but critical condition.
The author of "The Emperor Wears No Clothes" is still fighting for his life, but he's not fighting it alone. His friends, family and followers, numbering in the tens of thousands, are holding strong that Jack will be back.
