(Paul Stanford’s Facebook) I just left Jack Herer’s bedside at Portland’s Emmanuel Hospital. While I was there, our mutual friend, Tim Pate, played his guitar and sang to him. Tim has been playing for Jack daily for the past week. On Tuesday, as Tim played, Jack’s eyes opened for the first time and there has been some progress since then. As I spoke to Jack, his eyes shifted and looked into mine. As Tim plays, Jack’s gaze shifts from watching the guitar strings and watching Tim singing gently. Given the circumstances, Jack’s recovery to this point is astounding. Last week, he was in a deep coma with little brain activity. I urge you to continue to pray and send positive energy and thoughts to Jack.
EEG testing has shown some progress this week, but I am told there is permanent damage to his heart and brain. Jack is breathing with a respirator and remains in critical condition in the Intensive Care Unit.
Jack’s wife, Jeanie Herer, has set up a fund at US Bank, the Jack Herer Fund. She has incredible expenses, traveling from California and staying here by Jack’s side, and no money. Please make a donation in person or by mail at any US Back to the Jack Herer Fund.

Great news about Jack! I just hope he is able to speak his mind again one day. His last (hopefully not) speech was very moving.
My prayers go out to Jack Herer and his family. He’s a true patriot.
A hemp hero.
