In Nov 2008 I was so sick after 6-7 yrs I got to the point where my wife and I thought why not try med mj. When we asked my doctor he didn't know how or where to get it. He asked if I knew anyone (wink wink) I said I know lots of people but why would I try and get it illegally? Why not through him? I hadn't smoked for 20 years.
So the system is flawed. How can I get it? He found a compassion centre and I filled out the forms. I could buy it but quietly and if I got caught with it 50/50 I'd lose it or get busted? I was taking 100's of mg/day of morphine. I'm thinking trying to get off the morphine is better but getting busted sucks. Some one told me sell the pills for the mj I can't do that. The pills are poison they are killing me I said.
That's why I went for the MMAR even though I was faced with most doctors not wanting to sign the forms. I bought what I could when I could and the rest of the time I got worse again. In the meantime the doctor saw I was getting better and signed it.
So from Nov 2008 to now June 2009 that's rediculous time wise and for some it is not in time at all. As bad as some say about the states it seems their system in those states seem a bit better in terms of numbers anyway. In Canada there are only about 3000 card holders in the whole country. That's a low number for all that need it.
The rest are stuck with high prices or facing prosecution if arrested for growing. I want to try Rick Simpsons Oil treatment as soon as I can get enough grown to do it. I'm hoping it cures me. This has been a long journey for me and my family something I would not wish on my worst enemy. I would like to have my life back.
