Quadriplegia by Anonymous
I found out about medical use of pot by coaching a "Wheelchair Rugby" team a few years ago. All of the athletes were different level quadriplegics. They had all been able- bodied at one time, but because of accidents or disease, each one was left confined to a wheelchair. However, each of them had symptoms that pot relieved and/or relaxed, and it basically improved their quality of life. For example, they could rest, eat, and relieve their pain, which was previously were controlled by "prescription drugs" that created additional problems. Since that time I have had sciatic nerve damage in my right leg and use pot to help in my pain relief. It also helps me to sleep at night. , I have taken a lot of prescription drugs that have to be more harmful than smoking some good old "Mother Nature" herbal essence!
