I dont get it,unless you've grown your own weed your entire life then you've bought weed from somebody who sells for a living,im not to keen how you classed weed dealers as irresponsible,if it werent for them we'd all have been scrounging for a roach most of the time,im not real keen on people looking down on pot dealers,they take mucho risk & supply a much needed service.
With that being said im as responsible as they come & no i do not sell weed at any time,my profession is construction management where im a superintendant of one of the worlds largest union construction companies from which im very near retirement,i can retire today if i wish & im seriously thinking about it right now ,my wife is an ex school teacher who's won several outstanding service awards & who volunteered for years mentoring problem children.
As a long term married couple of close to 30 years we have no bills or debt including owning the home we live in free & clear,we also have substantial savings as well as investments in real estate.
We give generously to our local hospital's pediatric oncology ward to bring gifts to children who will never go home again & to help parents who cant afford to miss work to spend time with their children in their last days alive,we have put both our son's through school & made sure we have enough put away so after we take the big dirt nap they will have a great start in life.
What i enjoy about smoking bowls is the relaxation part of it,after a good smoke im very mellow,my job requires that im constantly thinking about issues that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars,or controlling situations where people can get seriously hurt or killed,i have to think fast all day 6 days a week & after a nice bowl my mind clears of stressfull thoughts.
I have serious pain issues that give me allmost constant pain from an explosion i was in on a construction site where i recieved 3rd degree burns over 12% of my body,i also have alot of pain from another job site accident where i broke my back 25 years earlier,i have 2 discs that are completely gone to the point its bone on bone,this pain is something i'll live the rest of my life with,ive vomited before the pain was so intense.
I like the fact that when i smoke heavily i dont need any of the heavy narcotics like vicoden or oxycontin that my pain management doctor has prescribed me,most of the time i can control the moderate pain by smoking a bowl & taking a vicoden ,without the weed i'd need 80 mg's of oxycontin 3 times daily as my pain doctor prescribes.
With my wife smoking pot it is quickly becomming a blessing bestowed by god & thats no bullshit,we feel that strongly about it,she has progressive MS & with that comes alot of nerve pain & severe spasms,she also nearly died from accute pancreitis which brings pain like ive never seen,her pancreas will never fully heal,the more her illness progresses the more she rely's on pot,she has zero appetite,a full meal for her consists of some watermellon & maybe some toast,after she smokes i can get her to eat half a hamburger or a full lobster tail which is her favorite food,without the bowl of weed she has no desire to eat.
She has spasm's & tremors that she equates to severe & paralyzing electric shocks within her nerves which bring massive amounts of short term pain until the tremors subside,afterwards she's drained,i will pack her a nice bowl & put her to bed,without the bowl she's too drained to rest she just passses out,after a bowl she gets real meaningfull sleep.
With a major illness like MS comes alot of depression,we as a family fear that without smoking weed she'd take her own life,before MS she was the leave it to beaver mom & loved it,she was a school teacher who loved her carrerr,the disease took so much from her it's easy for us to understand her depression,we keep her high (at her request) as much as possible,the weed keeps her on an even keel which is something the shit the doctors give her can never do.
She just had major surgery again last thursday evening where they slit her throat to remove her thyroid & para thyroid,this is going to leave a huge scar requiring plastic surgery so she can feel good about her looks again,she was a footwear model in her youth & had outstanding beauty,men would turn their heads everywhere she went,MS is slowly taking it away from her & it hurts her feelings very badly,smoking helps her come to grips with her illnesses progression.
Both of my son's are active in my growing of our weed even though they do not smoke at all,they enjoy helping grow their mothers medicine & they are proud of how it helps their mothers quality of life.
In our home growing & smoking is a family issue to be shared by all,even those who dont smoke at all & its been a blessing.
