An very good friend of mines mother suffers from 'ostio- per-row-sis' (forgive spelling).
She suffers badly with leg pain and finds it very hard to walk for much more than 15 mins, I had talked to my friend about canna, she then went off and did some research somewhere, she then asked me if I could sort her mum out a joint...
So we go to her mums on monday, we sit in the garden and give her mum a neat joint of 'Jorden', grown by another mate, I thought my 'cheese' might be a bit heavy for someone of 73 toking on their first joint..
I tell her just to have a puff and then put it down. she has a puff, and in a strong Irish accent she says "dats bloody lovely, but I dont feel a thing" I then have to take the joint from her as she would have chuffed it to the end if she had her way..
I stayed with them for about an hour, I phoned my friend every half hour to make sure she was ok.
She told me that her mother was totally relaxed (she can be a bit manic at times) and her legs were not causing her any discomfort, and even though she had not long had her breakfast she wanted her daughter to go and get her a mcdonalds .
She slept like a baby that night, and in the morning she phoned her daughter to say that her legs were almost pain free and that she didnt want to take her pain killers, and would she take her to the shops for a WALKABOUT.
They went shopping for about 2 hours apparently, resting now and again..

HOW GOOD IS THAT?????

love it when she gonna get a grow on

thats really good news nolan, nice 1

did she come here to do any research?

That is good mate, you do know you'll need to keep rolling her joints now though eh

LEGEND! Nice one mate!

Ow how I like to see cannabis give people relief! You've done a good deed there fella, I'm sure she'll remember you for it as well!



Funny as fuck!

Nice one!

Nice one dude I give my mum, who suffers from Rheumatoid Arthritis, a little one skinner when she cant sleep..
Cant say it helps her pain much but she sleeps through the night much better

Great story mate, send it to the daily mail. I'm sure they will print it

It's a shame that more sufferers don't have the option of medicating themselves due to the law


I suffer from back pain, which gets a hell of a lot worse if I don't have a joint for a few weeks.
All I need normally is 1 joint twice a week to help relax my muscles and keep the pain at bay, painkillers do nothing at all, in fact they make it worse because I can't feel the pain so I slouch or sit in a bad way which aggrevates it.
The difference between painkillers and weed is staggering, and it's so frustrating that I have to break the law to get rid of the pain!
The only problem I have with weed is I tend to get the munchies big time and eat crap.
Peace.
adp.

It was mentioned...




Her sister is a nurse..




I have already dropped off some blue peters, and she is very thankful, its a shame shes 73 and not 23

A noble act indeed.
Although the title did make me wonder

If only i could give the same kind of help to the mother in law,( but in an edible form 'cause she'd never smoke ) she has a hard time with rheumatiod arthiritis too

respect to you nolan.

nice one bro.

Nice one Nolan

Nice one Nolan, always good to give a little.



My Mother in law is the same, she just doesn't want to get high I don't think, but we have convinced her to try some cream from the next load of trim.

What more proof do the fuckers need than that post...

well done mate i once gave my mate who suffers with ms!u could see the difference in him with in 10mins his shakes stopped and this mad spasams he used to get in his arms and legs went!he now tokes all day and dont take the drugs for the shakes and spasams but still has to take a shit load of others but theres a big improvment

nice one mate!

but tell her off for eating "mc "

You handled it in a responsible manner, talked to her about it in an informative manner, controlled the dose and kept checking on her

Well done, respect

well said Danzig

If anyone is giving anyone they know cannabis you must realise that you are entering into a duty of care to that person. Monitor dose starting small and working up and follow up by checking the affects.You must be there for them if they start to have an unpleasant time not just leave them too it. Taking Cannabis even for those ill means that they may have to combat decades of misinformation and this is ahuge hurdle for them to get over. They need support and reall truthful information. Above all give them time to make a decison for themsleves don't force it

Remember cannabis does help some people but not everyone

heartwarming to hear ..made my day ...thank you

wow..... you've really made my day too. i appreciate the care you took with her. well done.

i've a wee irish mum, all of 82 years old, and in a lot of pain. i'd love to be able to do this for her but sadly i live too far from her.

thanks for your post.

Class mate ! jus goes to show cannabis can help with much more than we think !

Top Man, sounds like you did everything the right way, and what an amazing result.

1 converted from using pharma meds to using canna. Only a few billion left!

Hats off to you m8, once again top man.

nice one mate good to know you and the magic weed can make a difference we need more posts like this to start putting a dent in to the gloomy busted posts

Nice one mate, really warming post.

Hi

Well done mate...

Next time your 73 year old Young lady has some cannabis play this vid as she may enjoy the music and the slow tempo the photos of are where i live in the highlands of scotland they will help to relax her and tell her is from UK420! / E card for her!



New Horizons from UK420



Bongme

Thats made my day man, had a really shit one and just saw this on the front page is there anything this lil plant cant do?

Fucking excellent

top result Responsibly done too - amazing. top bloke
I wanna see it on the front page of the daily mail..

Brilliant!

How can this shit be illegal. Haha Mcd's, love it.

Nice one mate, just have to teach her how to make canna-butter now, so she can stay away from Mc !!

I knew some labours up in leeds,
they gave there oldish nieghbour a pipe and six years later she is called ganja granny,and after you smoke a bong she has the seconds!!!true story
the dont build um like they use too,

Ha this post still makes me smile.

Just seen this - last week my sis came to visit - she had a really bad back and had taken her quota of pain=killers for the day.

She said as a joke really - should have a spliff - naturally as I had one on the go, I passed it to her.

She has never taken to puffing always preferring a drink - so she smokes less than half a spliff (a day time - not overloaded one at that).

Almost immediately she notices the pain is easier - she can now move - sit/bend down - and in general more mobile than she had been since her back "popped".

Wonderful she says. - I was so pleased for her at the time (wanted to say "See, I told you it's not all bad") and told her I was going to post it on here. Reading this has jogged my memory to do so.

She knew my son smokes for his spine problems and me for my depression/IBS and even her husband had one once when he damaged his ribs - but now she knows first-hand results Made me feel good too

SL

This is why God, in His wisdom, created MJ.

the sooner it is legalised for people who suffer all different ailments. ( and just for us heads too!!) the better... Respect to the lady for enjoying her toke..and pain releif , you cant get better than that..You can teach an old girl new tricks.. get her on uk420 bet shed love to grow her own.. respect..

Just an update to let you know the lady in question has asked for another joint or two, shes has puffed away on 3 pure joints since she started...

She only has a little puff occaisionaly, she says she still uses her painkillers now and again, but never first thing in the morning like she used to have to...

All good as far as I can see..

i dont have back problems but when i sit wrong for a while or have bad stress i get back ache at the top of my spine , really is bad. few crumbs of toke and its gone leaving me to sleep in peace

Result!

Give that man a spliff!

And the old lady too......

However, what about her writing to the Daily Mail, or whatever, with her tale..... she could dictate it for example.

Be a fine ending to a wonderful story......

...Or sadly maybe a suspended custodial sentence...

When someone posts that they had some cannabis & it made them ill they get named, put on a pedestal & flanked all over the news. When someone who does not have a problem with cannabis gets found out they end up in court


An extremely refreshing piece of news though. Nice one for being kind, considerate & responsible

Missed this first time round but great story mate, warms the heart.
