Congratulations Maritimer. Way to bring those girls home. I know they will bring great relief and joy.
This cancer thing is a serious kick in the Heine, I’ve only been diagnosed for a few weeks but already the person I was before is gone, a new Reservoir Dog stands before you. I’m hoping that If I can survive this that I could open my home to cancer patients or their families. Here on Vancouver Island only the Provincial capital, Victoria, has a full service cancer centre/seperate hospital and so everyone else has to decamp here to a new, and extremely expensive to rent in, city, and I imagine that many patients refuse to impoverish their families or can’t afford even for just themselves to come here for weeks and weeks and weeks of care it takes, and so they choose less effective care, with much worse outcomes. Makes me feel awful to think about, And grateful that, poor as I am, I own my own home 15minutes from one of the best hospitals in the country.
So, Maybe I can start to.help when I’m healed. Can’t think of a more efficient way to meet people with needs, nor cost effective method to meet their needs, so I hope that can happen.
As for growing weed… you know, in my late forties (just turned 50 few weeks ago) I just wasn’t grooving with weed as a smoker but I love growing it. Plus I have friends who smoke and a lot of people do services for me on my car and home, engine work (project car), plumbing, tree care, roofing, etc. in exchange for weed. So given my home would be considered a “tear down” by a new owner, you might imagine my need for services, and thus weed, never lets up. And you’d be right!
But now cancer, just 6 weeks since diagnosis, and my relationship with weed has changed dramatically. Suddenly I love using it. I love everything about how it helps me cope so well with the terrible and terrifying symptoms. It’s always there for me, and because fear is a major part of the cancer experience, the fact it effectively deals with that too is amazing.
So I’d like to become more efficient, and maybe I could help supply a local compAssion club. I don’t know much about med canna and thought to ask you if you had any sources of info to pass on?
And again, a great looking crop, well done for bringing her all this way and doing so in the name of treating human suffering and lifting human dignity. Yer the best mate!
