Ive suffered from epilepsy for most of my life, The toxic mix of medications prescribed to me was unreal.
I started smoking MJ at the age of 15 recreationaly(peer pressure, rebellion). I started growing outdoors at 19 yrs old.
when I lost my job in my 20s and couldnt afford that concentrated mix of downers they had been feeding me I turned to MJ
While on my meds I was still an active epileptic having siezures 1,2 times daily. Without the meds and daily doses of MJ my siezure activity reduced significantly down to 1,2 a week. When I met my wife she was absolutley against MJ with the fear of losing the woman of my dreams I gave up the lifestyle and medicine that I beleived to help me and went back on the "prescribed meds" for my epilepsy
As time went on my siezure activity returned to previous levels, My wife had never seen that and reluctantly accepted my MJ usage
years go by my wife developed a mastioblastoma (Tumor) in her jaw and had to have major surgery to remove it as well as part of her Jawbone several teeth and was in massive pain constantly. The obvious thing for the Drs to do was give her high doses of narcotic medications. in 5 yrs she had 3 jaw replacement surgeries and was hooked on oxy,soma,norco,flexidrill, you name it she needed to have it not just for pain but to feed her bodies need for it. After 8 yrs I couldnt take it any longer it was ruining our marriage, she couldnt care for our Children or drive ,talk to anyone and was becoming more and more depressed by the minute. She made the decision to use MJ
for pain control and to cope with withdrawal from all those meds I assured her I would never let her go without her meds and started my outdoor grows. My wife quit all those killer pills in one day and has smoked 4 times daily everyday since then it has been 9 yrs this febuary. Our life is great now my epilepsy is almost non existent and she still controls massive pain and muscle spasms with MJ sucessufully
So Does my wife mind my adventurous out door grows NO I just recently started growing indoors and she supports this as well and I can see that she is reassured that she will never go without what we both consider to be the plant that saved our lives and our marriage.

I think MJ would help a couple conditions she suffers from, but she is still holding on to the stigma our media has created against MJ. I'm hoping that a vaporizer and the edibles will help her come around. Even if she never starts smoking regularly, I'm a very lucky man!
