Never in my life would I have thought I would someday use legal marijuana.
I was getting older, and like most older people, I had arthritis.
The difference was that mine was debilitating. I had severe arthritis in my hands and feet. There was no amount of braces they could give me to help keep me mobile when it was your hands or feet. I was told they had special gloves that I could wear, but what about my feet. My neighbor told me they had medical marijuana creams I could use like hand lotion, and use it on my hands and feet. She gave me a sample of what she used. Within fifteen minutes, I could walk without feeling the pains of the arthritis. My hands were moving, and I easily picked up a spoon for my tea. I asked her how I could get a medical marijuana card and purchase the cream. She gave me the samples she had, and helped me to sign up on the state website, so I could get my medical marijuana card. Three weeks later, she took me to her doctor, since I no longer drove, and went in with me. All he had to do was look at my hands and feet, and he was sending my information into the state, so I could get my medical marijuana ID card. Within a week, my medical marijuana card was in my hand and my neighbor was taking me to the dispensary. I was given the same cream, but it was a larger bottle, and the amount of THC and CBD were much higher. I never thought I would use marijuana, but medical marijuana has restored some of my mobility.
