Hello, I'm a long time lurker here on Grasscity. I can't say that I'm a full-blown pot smoker but I do enjoy a hit of green every now and then myself. As of right now I'm laying low from it for awhile because I'm caught in a situation where I need to keep clean. However, this isn't really about me but my boyfriend who has to smoke it everyday to treat his cancer. He has three types of cancer; lung, bone and kidney. He was diagnosed over a year ago and it's amazing that he has made it this far. Nowadays he is in great pain and discomfort. He has all of these medications (including strong narcotic pills like morphine and Oxys) to help ease his pain and sickness but weed is the only thing that actually works. It's basically the only thing that helps him eat, move around and feel relaxed. He tells me he feels more ALIVE when he's smoking weed, and I know he does because I've seen it. It just fucking sucks because he can't get it often. When he does, it's a very tiny amount for him to have and it doesn't last him too long. When he does smoke weed I can totally notice the difference in him. I'm not saying the weed cures his cancer but it does help slow the horrid symptoms. I can honestly say that I see the light in his eyes when he's toking the pipe. It's like he's a different person. It's incredible! Anybody else here have any similar experiences to mine? Please let me know because I'd love to read your stories. Anyway, it's great to be here on this site and I hope to make some friends! Sincerely, BranDE
