A couple of years ago, I suffered an accident at work. I slipped and fell off some scaffolding and was badly injured. I broke my leg and several ribs, wrenched my shoulder and ended up with a concussion. Even after a hospital stay and physical therapy, I was left with a great deal of physical […]
So I feel the joke is sort of on me when it comes to medical weed. When our state was debating whether or not to legalize medical weed, I just played against it. In my misguided estimation, the whole medical marijuana thing was a ruse. I figured it was just another excuse for the stoners […]
I remember watching my father deal with terrible arthritis. It was not easy to watch & even harder to help my father out. My dad was sort of a man who dwelled on negativity & turmoil. My dad simply sort of devolved into a world of pain killers & being alone. It wasn’t a pretty […]
Having cancer is not as bad as I thought. Yeah, I feel I just thought that if I was ever told I had cancer, that would be it for me. In my mind, cancer equals being done in life. And if I didn’t immediately die, I figured the pain would be so horrible that I […]
It entirely feels as if I had two lives. There was the life I had prior to the onset of the muscle spasms. Then the life I have led post diagnosis is another one. Well, diagnosis isn’t entirely the right term for it. My doctor is not sure what’s causing my muscles to quickly spasm. […]
I didn’t care that I got little sleep. I just waved it off. I had too much to do and sleep wasn’t a priority. Still, even then, I was getting at least 5 or 6 hours of deep sleep. It’s amazing to lay here now & realize just how amazing I had it. Just recently, […]
It’s entirely hard for me to articulate just what it feels like to have a seizure. I find this the case with all the people who suffer from seizures. The description of a seizure is so hard because it’s just not that clearly stated. All I can say is that my world comes to a […]
Having bulimia sort of snuck up on me. This can happen when you make a lie & then live it. It’s what happens when an odd reality takes hold & that life is better than the truth. Or so you fool yourself into believing. With the help of medical marijuana, I am reading that my […]
Dealing with MS has been going on so long that I sort of forgot just what it felt like to have good mornings. Thanks to the legal weed shop & medical marijuana, I’m now getting reacquainted with a better normal. My MS is not gone & I don’t suppose if it will ever fully be […]
Thank goodness for having great friends. And one of mine got me to a cannabis dispensary just in that right point. At one point in my life, I was just a total social lady with so many friends & acquaintances. That was quite a time for me & it almost feels like that was another […]
