On disability (declared 100% disabled) and SSI to help cover RX's. At the end of each month they are broke.
To grow takes very little of my time away from my Family. And I enjoy helping and growing.

Growers are like fishermen:
The fish is always at minimum 2 times the actual size.

It astounds me, as a Primary Caregiver, that no one is even considering the hardships the Patients with a Primary Caregiver, not a Dispensary, are going to have.

Colorado420;
Doesn't appear that there are very many on this forum too concerned about what the Colorado Health Dept. is trying to do. I have seen all kinds of action on this topic in other forums but hardly anything here. Can't understand it. They are still trying to figure out how many...
