Granny Storm Crow's List-

[Storm Crow]

How this list came about-

"If the truth won't do, then something is wrong!"

Those were the furious words of my grandfather to my Mother. I had walked in from joyfully stuffing my face with red raspberries in the garden, straight into "war zone"! My gentle grandfather in a fury, his hand raised! Mom was just beginning to shrink back away from him. They saw me and quickly sent me away. But it was too late, the scene and the words were seared into my 5-year-old brain. That was over 55 years ago, but I still remember it clearly. My grandfather was a minister, one very short step away from God in my 5 year old mind. It was one of those life changing moments. It is still rare for me to tell a lie. I never found out what my Mother's lie was.

As I child, I suffered a traumatic head injury. Another child tried to murder me with a hammer. I was left with frequent migraines. At 19, like many rebellious teens, I tried cannabis. It took about a year for me to make the connection between using cannabis and the absence of my normally frequent migraines. I have used cannabis ever since.

I am an avid reader. While perusing an old book on herbal medicine, I read how the little old ladies of Mexico made and used a cannabis/tequila rub on their arthritic hands. Then I met Joey, an epileptic musician. He told me another interesting fact- when he had pot he could cut his medication in half! On a camping trip years later, I smelled an unmistakable odor. Following my nose, I was totally shocked to find a grandmotherly lady in her 70s puffing away on a delicate oriental pipe. "Parkinson's. And the pot's way cheaper than the pills!" Her nephew kept her well supplied, she said. We had a nice chat about various medical uses of cannabis.

Epilepsy, Parkinson's, arthritis, and my migraines! What else was it good for? Yet every news article on cannabis that I saw, claimed one new horror after another. Men grew breasts and were impotent. Women became sterile or miscarried. It made you crazy and murderous. Made you lazy and do nothing. It caused cancer and heart attacks...What I had learned on my own and from others and what I was being told in the press were so different!

What was the truth? I began researching. I printed the first studies up and kept them in a notebook, just as a personal reference. The notebook quickly filled. I started a Word file of the URLs and on July 30 2007, I posted it. It continues to grow.


Here's some of what I have found. All I've done is copy the URLs, then put them all in some semblance order for everyone to use as a reference. Please feel free to share this list with anyone who could benefit from it.

Storm Crow Reviewed by Storm Crow on 09-02-2008. Granny Storm Crow's List- How this list came about- "If the truth won't do, then something is wrong!" Those were the furious words of my grandfather to my Mother. I had walked in from joyfully stuffing my face with red raspberries in the garden, straight into "war zone"! My gentle grandfather in a fury, his hand raised! Mom was just beginning to shrink back away from him. They saw me and quickly sent me away. But it was too late, the scene and the words were seared into my 5-year-old brain. That was over 55 Rating: 5

Local High School Student Dies From MRSA

PHILADELPHIA (CBS 3) ― A Philadelphia public high school student died earlier this week of a confirmed case of MRSA, the school district announced.

Saalen Jones, a senior at Martin Luther King High, passed away Tuesday at Albert Einstein Medical Center.

Jones, 17, was a cornerback for the Martin Luther King football team. It was not immediately known how Jones was exposed to the bacteria...........
cbs3.com - Local High School Student Dies From MRSA

Saalen Jones is just "collateral damage" in the War on Drugs. Being an athlete in school, he likely didn't use drugs. Yet it is the War on drugs that killed him.

If we had been researching cannabis for even a year or so, we would by now have had potent cannabis salves to fight MRSA. We have a plant that can produce chemicals that apparently stop MRSA in it's tracks, and our government won't let us have it! How WRONG can you get?

Rest in peace, Saalen.

[Migrainesuffer]

Hello Granny, I just found this site, and I read a few post by a few people that are migraine or headache suffers. I am happy to find people because its so hard to relate to people, and they do not understand me. I've noticed my pain in 5th grade, age 10. But i think it was deeper, maybe it was from a lot of head trauma. I fell a lot on my head with lumps. It has been increasing more and more. I specially noticed it more my sophmore year in highschool when i tried out for football and get my tooth knocked out. i got hit hard. but no concussion or anything. From than on i beeing seeing doctors, and they do nothing. They almost infact killed me by giving me medications i was allergic too, well no one new i was untill i took it. It was for sinus infections, however i do not have them it only appears to be. Well I had mir,catscans, xrays etc. Nothing all normal fine. This one lady "white witch" Chiropractic, she is referred as white witch because she has 15 or more medical degrees. She gave me chiropractic told me to stay off milk, eat salads, and take multi vitamins. I think it was beginning to help me, but I didnt know because i had a few sessions than i got sick and it all went to hell. than i approaced accupuncture which did nothing, but currently trying herbal medicine, Been a month no improvements yet. Except a bit easier to sleep, not significant. I also tried pot for the first time in college. Havent been smoking for a month now because of the tea trail. I hope it can cure me, oh yeah the mj. I dont think it really helped me. I felt shitty in my high like altered state and i still feel pain. after high. wham... super pain. Except maybe a couple strands i felt alright but none of the mj was very good. It was basic kush and maybe two types of mmj. I am a beginner. I just want to be very knowledgeable about mmj, and if it can help me. I have anxiety, and depression due to the migraines. well therapist said my pain is from depression. Also maybe stress, and social, or family problems idk. its confusing. I feel so lost all the time. Lately i feel like im losing my mind. and my intelligence has been slipping away and thats not good since i just began college. I got through school by having a good memory, and fighting pain. Because studying is not easy or fun because of pain you should know how that is. Ehh basically I just want to be friends with people that are suffers, and learn techniques or stuff they do to help pain. I will definetely inform you if herbal tea helps. and chiropractics. I also want to learn how to get a medical card, and if it will harm me from careers. as if it might be in record i havce it than people who see it will fire me or not hire me in the future. I just dont like doing it illegally. specially i have paranoia from smoking. any help would be very appreciated. also i am hoping california will pass marijuana as legal. a lot of people are saying that it might soon be legal. I hope so.
