(and my reasons for building this site)
Hi there,
I’m Andy (though I’d never call myself that in real life). One of the main reasons I’m building this out for both my passed mother, and father.
My mother was offered a prescription for marijuana in California, before it was widely accepted- even for medical use. She had cancer and the doctor thought it would have helped with her apatite (and as we know now, in other ways too).
However, she declined and the chemotherapy continued…
One of the reasons she decided not to take the doctor’s advice was because I was a smoker of the herb. Though it never made me ‘stupid,’ she just didn’t want to. She also never managed her addition to a particular diet soda that she consumed at least 6, 12oz cans a day. This soda was heavy in a particular, cancer causing neurotoxin.
So she passed on the plant that could have helped, but continued with the hard, highly addictive toxin. It was a sad result.
As for my father, he also died of cancer. Even though we had smoked together when he visited me from Hawaii, in Prague, the Czech Republic- he never told me he had cancer, or I would have pushed information in his direction. Another sad result.
Now we know so much more. The information is out there. CBDs are readily available, which would have made my mother’s objections null and void.
So this site is dedicated to them. Hopefully, I can transmute those tragedies to help others, by sharing not only what I know, through experience, but with what I can share by research and my love of writing.
Finally, this is a plant that has helped me in many ways. These will be explored within this blog. At the same time, not all of my experiences have been fantastic/hunky-dory, and I’ll be honest about those as well. Perhaps in doing so, I might be able so save my readers from some of those pitfalls.
We’ll see… That’s what I’m here for anyway.
Thank you for your interest and if you’d like to reach out, you can do so by writing here.
Best wishes,
*A.
