Great post! You certainly can relate when I speak of how much I hate 'chemo/late stage radiation'. It disturbs me greatly to think this is the best our scientist can come up with, the FDA approves it as 'collateral damage'. Your correct about the strains, but, if its Indica (dosing regimen is best at night then) its not fun, if the person is already in depression they become more depressed. If its high thc sativa dominant hybrid or other it doesn't make that much difference except if you grow your own and make your own oil. Then the yield of the strain, heavy trichs come into play. And of course Indica as pure as you can get for sleep. Bottom line, any oil is better than no oil. That being said the higher the THC/CBD % the faster the heal.
Bet you count your blessings everyday for the decision you made about chemo. I often think of people I know who passes away from cancer, wish I could of helped them. It just gets the boilers inside steaming and raises my anxiety levels so I quit beating myself up. None of these people had to die. Its an awful death with pain and suffering. Many just want it over. Every human alive should have a right to cannabis concentrated oil...but wait, what about the pharmies? I hate to think like this, but, there is no other logical answer. Not when you learn what, how and the whys of the oil. Then they roll out 'chemo/radiation has been scientifically proven to kill cancer'. Uh...yea, with everything else also. Sad state to be sure.
BTW, my blood pressure is dead on to yours, always a tad high.

I don't talk too much about family history or personal experiences because of the identity factor but this really needs to be said for anyone on the fringes that might steer away from oil in favor of chemo/radiation. Truth is, I avoided chemo/radiation because I watched first hand the following: father dead from cancer, 3 uncles dead from cancer, 1 aunt dead from cancer, 2 cousins dead from cancer, and a girlfriends little brother again dead from cancer. Cancer types included prostate, lung, breast, leukemia and lymphoma. The oldest of the group was 59 and the youngest was 11. I learned about the oil when trying to help dad but it was too late; however, it provided the best palliative care available. He suffered the least of all the people I know in the end and was actually cracking jokes in his final week of life even though we didn't know about the proper method of administration and dosing. Now that we know about the proper method for making and dosing the oil our small circle has benefited tremendously. Cancer all but completely gone, MS is manageable and hopefully will be cured based upon what we've seen, and epileptic seizures are dramatically reduced. The first thing we noticed was normalized BP; none of us were on BP meds but I probably should've been with a 180 over 92 when I started the oil and down to 176 over 72 the last time I checked. The lack of sleep and anxiety over being sick was relieved as well within the first couple of months. We also follow gerson to a degree including the juicing and coffee enemas in addition to habanero tincture with tea or soup. I say to a degree because we aren't religious about the hipocrates soup and our juice recipes are made with a standard Breville instead of a Norwalk. We also switch up our juice recipe but the general staples are green apple, carrot, kale, beets, ginger and various other greens. So when I say I cringe at people taking chemo and radiation it's for good reason; I've seen first hand the pain and suffering and actually washed and cared for some of my loved one's at the end of their torture and torment. On the other hand, I've never seen anything but great results from using the oil and alternative treatments even in cased where it turned out to be palliative in nature.
