I believe that decay plus dying are as much a part of life as growth plus living. Yet, the truth of that reality can be difficult to take at times. I’m experiencing that first hand. My mother is in the first stages of dementia. It’s terrible to witness. However, he is near the end of his life plus all I want to do is make the rest of it as comfortable as I can. I found an unexpected ally in this task. Medical cannabis has made a tremendous difference in the amount of lucidity that he is able to have now. Thankfully, I have an associate who has already experienced what I am going through. She helped understand that though it’s not easy, there are good spots. And our associate explained how medical cannabis can be helpful in getting more of those good spots. She insisted that I go to some cannabis dispensary events in order to get some cannabis education. The more I began to understand about medical marijuana, the more I realized it was something that might help. The fact that our mother was using cannabis was not lost on his or me. She was initially not interested at all. Definitely, she did not want to smoke any sort of cannabis flower product. So, every one of us was able to find some cannabis edibles. Just the fact that they looked, tasted and felt like goodies went an easily long way in making medical cannabis more palatable to her. She looks forward to taking the medical cannabis now plus I do too. There is a sparkle in his eyes that I can see. And that is enough of a good spot for me.
