Fuck the Parkinson's, the Dr just gave me a reason to smoke MORE!

My wife slept like a parkie last night. She kicked the shit out of me in my sleep!

Lol - she was restless like Sigourney Weaver in fucking ghost busters.

At least I got some action, I just wish she was involved!

:razz:


Restless leg problems?

There is one solution you could try.... tying her up... :razz:

I tried to go to work today... made it a whole 27 minutes on the phones, before I told my supe that I wasn't gonna make it.

Hubby came and got me... bronchitis sucks, too. Now I'm all coughing.... sigh.

On the bright side, I woke up feeling so much better, I THOUGHT I could go to work. Hope this trend continues...

You know, I think about my grandmother dabbing and I'm not sure it would have worked out. She loved her Valium, DMSO, cold medicine, Tuttle's horse lineament, Castor oil etc so much that she would have NEVER understood the plant. You can tell I was "treated" with some of this shite . . . :\

That video reminds me of the one I posted about a year ago... forgive me for posting it again, but I think it's an absolute riot.. makes me laugh every time I see it.


On another note, I saw this today and thought of mvapes (of course!). The effect of cannabis on Parkinson's is unbelievable. I was hoping that Michael J. Fox would also be an advocate for it in his segment, but it didn't come up. However, the end segment clearly shows the benefits of cannabis usage for the Parkinson's patient.

There are so many avenues in which cannabis is benefical to Parkinson's patients.

Here's another video of some incredibly attractive PD patient (stained shirt and all). My biggest side effect is the fact that I can't sit still. Constantly moving creates enormous muscular skeletal paim. It's kind of like exercising and although you know it's time to stop you can't!

It's become a part of my life. I've learned to appreciate and respect the things in life that make me feel better. My admiration for cannabis is on an entirely new level. When it makes you feel whole again or it helps you, even if just for a moment forget the challenge it's all worth it.

Unfortunately it doesn't last long. A dose usually lasts about 20 minutes for me.

I wanted to walk you through a dose and show you what it actually looks like in a video.

When in need of a dose or perhaps I'm between patches or having a difficult moment the PD usually starts by making my legs restless. I get anxious and can't sit down or stand still. My hands and shoulders start to show dyskenisia and tremors. My muscles, especially large muscle groups start to clinch and tighten. It feels almost as if my muscles are trying to break my bones from the inside out.

Sometimes when I use the restroom and like any normal person would I use the muscles in my stomach to help squeeze. Guees what? Sometimes they lock up and I go into dystonic spasms on the toilet and I hold in the scream because I don't worry my family.

I was on the phone with my best friend earlier and I said I understand a saying now that I've heard within the Parkinson's community.

PD only kills about 5% of its victims but the other 95% would gladly take that route rather than deal with that pain.

I'm not one of those fuckers and cannabis helps me prove my point. Watch it reverse my symptoms. I wish you could see my smile at the end.

Wow mvapes.... just wow. :luv:

Although the effects are subtle, one can definitely see you relax and the tremors seem to slow down. I'm so happy that this wonderful plant can help you to the extent that it does. Do you find that dabbing gives you a quicker, more noticeable relief?

On another note.. I have found the perfect present for all of my FC vapor daddies!!!

I didn't want anyone to be sad last night. That wasn't the point of my video. It was to show that no matter how many lemons life throws at you when adding cannabis those lemons get skunky.

And regardless of my affliction for Mary Jane I always try and have things in my day that I look forward to. It's not always a sesh that helps me. Sometimes it's artwork, or reading, or meditation, or shooting heroin, or takibg a walk with my kids.

Only kidding fuckers, I hate walking with the kids!

Anyways, life can easily bring you down. It's easy to miss the sunshine if we keep our heads in our pain. The pain for me isn't going anywhere. I can always count on it. For me my challenge is looking past it and learning how to shove positivity in its face.

I lose sometimes, but that's ok. If you always won than life would get pretty boring. Like pakas. The challenges are what keeps us going, what lights that fire under me to get up and move past it.

Or, be friends with @momofthegoons who won't fucking allow me to be sad. She knows sometimes that I need to take the cape off and just cry. But friends like her, my wife, my kids, other friends (some from here) remind me about the big picture.

There may not be a light at the end of the tunnel right now but that's not to say that the bulb isn't on its way.

I'll just be waiting here with my nail and vape ready to go.
