Well, I started writing this, two and-a-half hours ago, then picked it back up to finish. I hope it makes sense.

Just thought I'd share:

Hi, I am a Traumatic Brain Injury survivor, who suffers from permanent pain from a subsequent car-accident. I've tried every way possible, legally and, because of the T.B.I., nothing has been effective. I've been at wit's end, for years, trying to justify the fact that cannabis works amazingly, within seconds. Starting in 1994, I've had problems with double-vision, tinnitus, right-sided slowness, and, an imbalance in my hips. Since 2002, I've been afflicted with daily left-sided pain. In both accidents, I've been granted lawsuit-settlements, yet, they leave me with no medicine for my pain. Life has dealt me a harsh hand, and, if I had found a medicine that works, I would've received it, free through Medicaid/Medicare, plus pain & suffering for the rest of my life. Cannabis works. If the doctors were allowed to prescribe it to me, I would've received it, plus pain & suffering (result of the lawsuit/another driver's failure to yield (eight years after a coma)), for as long as I felt pain (which is permanent). The doctor's prognosis was that I felt it because of the earlier brain-injury. Cannabis works through the cannabinoid system, which has been adversely affected, as opposed, to my opioid system, because of the influx of neurotransmitters at the time of brain trauma. My eyes were tested thirteen, and, thirteen and one-half years after my coma. The first time, cannabis-abstinent for three days, the ophthalmologist said that my eyes weren't working together. The second time, three lung-filling hits in three, and a half, hours beforehand, my vision tested perfect, with my eyes working together. Cannabis speeds up the half of my brain, which was severely injured during the head-injury (another driver, with a station-wagon, broke his legs, while broadsiding into my passenger-door, pushing the door, through my stick-shift, into my driver's seat. I went through a coma, for ten days, waking up on November 1, 1994. I was nineteen. I need Medicare/Medicaid to pay for the only medicine that works, cannabis. Thank you. Chris

Thanks for the site, Granny!
