Moving to RI. If anyone can help I'd be grateful! (A few Q's)

Hello everybody! I could really use some help finding answers to some questions and would be deeply grateful if anyone can point me in the right direction.

I currently live in PA and am looking forward to moving out. In Dec 2007, 2 people on a forklift and pallet-jack where horse-playing and crushed my right ankle while at work. After over 5 surgeries and hardware, I've been prescribed percocet since then and I can't imagine how my liver looks. I really don't want to take it anymore and it interferes with my Bi-Polar and Chronic Insomnia. I wish I could stop but my leg pain is only manageable by the percocets and the lidoderm patches. My Girlfriend is also epileptic and we are waiting patiently for the time to get out of here. I still want to stay close to my family and not move to Cali. and Rhode Island is beautiful state. I've already read the procedure on becoming a card holder but I have a few questions if anyone can help.

1. Does my injury/conditions allow me to be applicable for a card? (I have chronic pain but wanted further clarification)

2. Is there any more tolerant towns or counties? So I can know what places I could look at.

3. I am unsure what a care-giver is. Is it for people under 18 (on the application) or someone for growing? Do you NEED a caregiver to grow?

4. If Rhode Island doesn't seem right for me, any suggestions?

Thank you for reading any help would be much appreciated. Thanks again!
