Mom has cancer..

I can kinda relate... I've had some people who were really close to me die from cancer (RIP), so I know all too well what it does to a person...

I also know what it's like to have your parents think weed is the devil's plant and that there's no good attributes to it at all...

I'm sorry for your pain though man. I know this can't be easy for you. You and your family be in my thoughts and prayers...

 

That's sucks about your mom having cancer. I wish I could say something comforting but I know how empty words are compared to the pain of losing a loved one.

That said, perhaps you could convince her to try it once. Tell her the worse thing that could happen is that nothing happens.

 

Marinol????

 

my grandpa died 2 days ago from cancer. Fucking bullshit shit i tell you. I know how hard it is looking at people you care about in pain like that. Most be even worse when its your own mother. He was on 230mg of morphine for the last like 3 weeks of his live, he must have been having fun lol.

 

my mum was in hospital for nearly 2 years with a tumor of the brain that no one could fix till the nurosurgeon, basically turned round and told us..........i think i can remove this thing, she may die, but if we don't do anything she will anyway.....we had to sign a disclaimer......she had to learn to walk and talk again, and she has no recollection of being in hospital which is a good thing.........she's fine now, walks with a stick, but can walk unadied for about 2 miles..........last thing i read was about how scientists and doctors are looking into MJ for treatment of cancer as it is it known to kill certain cancer cells............

i feel your pain mate i really do, i went to see my mum once in hospital and she couldn't recognise me, that was sooooooo hard to take........we had to fight tooth and nail to get her the treatment she needed as the NHS (National Health Service) said that she would need to go into a home and that there was nothing else we could do..........BULLSHIT............all i can suggest mate is to get a second or even a third opinion, as most health organisations are just out to make money now and care not for the lives of the people they effect.

my mums a holy holy person, me, i'm not too fussed about it, but i prayed more than i've ever done and she pulled through, maybe not your thing either, but it certainly won't do any harm..............i hope she gets better, my thoughts and prayers are with you and yours...............Peace out.........Sid

 

Yeah my great grama died a while ago really suck, she was such a good lady, had almost a perfect life minus oxygen tube and pills and shit wow it was really hard to loose her

 

Look into medicinal mushrooms (i.e. reishi/maitaki e.t.c.) for cancer treatment/chemo treatment.

Also check out possible homeopathic remedys.

I can relate dude...mine died when I was under 5 from breast...

The only real regrets I have albeit not something I could have changed are not spending much time with her and recently (13 on up to 21 now) have slowly started really being disgusted by the lack of treatment given..

Do anything you can to help her with it... food or a vaporizer if need be and spend time with her even if it means taking sick days. You can't put a price tag on that time.

Get high as a kite an just talk to her as a person..get to know who she is while you can. I doubt she's thinking of you middle aged asking an telling all sorts of stories you'd never have spoken of in the present son/mother relationship. Pot will make her happier keep her eating and has been shown to 'reset' faulty cancer ridden cells killing off tumors an other such things..

If karma an fate are on your side and you get her to take it...she may be around cancer free ...

Edit - just saw your latest post... fucked..don't believe in god/s or anything of the sort but I hope you get to at least say good bye in a way that allows you some peace

 

yeah cancer sucks, a few years back i was close too loosing 2 family members at the same time, my grandma and aunty both had cancer, it was a hard time for al the family.

 

Hey man. My mom had cancer in her jaw about the time I was born. Weird because she wasnt a smoker, but a tummer (sp) was in the jaw. She had to have part of her tounge removed and part of her jaw but shes okay now. Scarred on her neck and has a little lisp, but since they took skin from her wrist its better. She had radiation therapy for 2 years and goes back to moniter her jaw every 6 months. Hope your situation gets better, i was to young but i relate. My moms cancer could come back but she should be clear for good now.

 

thats really rough.. a freind of mine past last spring from it, she was 19.

 

That's really sad to hear man.. We can all relate to some degree with you, so we'll be sending as much good karma your way as we can muster! Maybe try approaching her with a vaporizer, as it's a less threatening way to smoke. She'll appreciate the clear high as well.

 

Please have Her try Marinol....

I was a nurse a decade ago...SInce then my 3 sisters ...they were nurses an still are..have told me alot of older folks that would never believe that smoking could help have used Marinol with very good results...

It really helps with the crao involved with chemo...and the patient can actually eat and not waste away....I know its tough man....Nursing was the hardest psychological job I ever had..

Dont let the doctors let her lay in pain....jump straight up their asses to give her more then enough pain med...the dam docs are scared you might sue em for over medicating.....tell them upfront that you want her pain free period......Ive seen too many people suffer an die in horrible pain because their pussy doctors were scard to do anything..

 

MY dad has brain cancer and he is fully disabled. if u gave him weed he would be even worse.

 

Hey .. Im sorry bout ur loss .. i actually lost my mom to cancer back in 2003 .. so yea i can relate .. and yea i toke every day jus about .. and that does def release alotta stress nd shit .. ne ways .. i jus wanted to let yah kno .. i def kno what u are goin thru .. been thru all the shit .. and it does suck

 

It's not for everyone as it's not real 'bud high' it's just synthetic THC in a pill

Some people sleep for 20+ hours off half a pill which wouldn't be good for this situation

As for "MY dad has brain cancer and he is fully disabled. if u gave him weed he would be even worse."


Actually toking up reduces pressure on any tumors or growth within the skull...if anything the reduce in pressure should allow some regained motorskill

 

interesting.....do you have medical training?....just curious

most pills arent for everyone thats true...thats why theres a million types

Marinal is not a "bud high"....but for someone who believed smoking weed is an evil sin. Takin the pill can benefit......as for sleeping...well...If I were terminal an had a choice of layin in pain awake all day, or sleeping 20 hrs an then getting a few waking hours pain free....Ill take the pill....most terminal patients prefer to escape the pain and mental stress by sleeping....We as healthy people dont uinderstand that an say.....They sleep too much....thats when the Doctors stop the medications and the person you love gets in live out their remaining time in agony....

I know its tough to watch a person sleep....and wantin them to be lucid....but its alot better knowin they are comfortable sleeping . versus watching them miserable with pain unable to sleep..

just my observations from experience with terminal patient care.
