CANCER! Fight it with THC/CBD oil!!
 

Okay folks -- here we go!

This thread is going to be about my personal battle with a tumor on my liver and what I've done to improve my quality of life -- and deal with this "****" -- because that's what it is!!


I do not want this to turn into a story about everyone's cancer - and the USUAL things that Medicine recommends! Hell no! This is about ALTERNATIVE non invasive - no chemo - no radiation - no surgery - "INCURABLE CANCER". This is about when they find you have cancer and send you home to die!

Let's just get this statement out of the way..... #****CANCER


So with the next post I will begin with my story -- what I have done to HELP MYSELF -- the trials and tribulations of acquiring what I feel are life altering "meds" when living in a state that doesn't recognize THC (pot extract) as legal.


:::::::::::WARNING:::::::::::


I'm as FAR from a pot head as a human could get. I have not had alcohol or drugs in over 32 years!! I'm a complete advocate of AA and the program in general. If you expect to read about getting high and that sort of thing - stop reading now. You'll be bored out of your mind.

If I may Greg ....a close friend, her father has a form of liver cancer and has what seems to be a similar attitude that you do ... they were suggested to looks into blue scorpion venom .. What is exactly does ? ..they had a naturopath hook them up with some Dr in Cuba who was able to get them some .
Trying to help


Oh btw Google f*+- cancer ....they sell cool hats and t shirts

Greg

What makes you a special person is your generosity in sharing the life lessons you have learned; whether it is, picking a fab shop, a fabrication technique, investment strategy or your current project of battling the lack of true help in dealing with diseases that aren't making people money.

You're good man Charley Brown.

Rob

In early May of this year (2016) I was diagnosed with a stage IV "biliary duct" cancer. This cancer is a tumor on the OUTSIDE of my liver and is not diagnosed until the cancer SYMPTOMS present. There is no early detection. There is no test. This is UNLIKE Colon cancer that is so simple to detect.... that NOBODY should ever get it!! You just simply go and get a regular colonoscopy and bingo..... if there's any issues going on or developing - they fix it before it goes crazy. Don't bother to get the regular colonoscopy ------- and when they do find the cancer - you're going to be in a battle for your life!

Now ---- No such exam exists for what I have. You have ZERO CLUE that you have anything wrong with you until the typical symptoms present. Fatigue! Coffee / Dark Tea colored urine! Funky (greyish) stool color.... Itchy skin (all over). Dude...... you come down with that combo and you've got ya some serious f'n health issues! And this all happens FAST!! I was fine and then BAM! I was sick as hell!

I had come home from running the car at Thunderhill..... and for a couple days after getting home I was fine.... then felt the fatigue.... like LAY DOWN ON THE SOFA fatigue. A lack of appetite doesn't help --- only helping to make you weaker....

I Googled my symptoms ---- and that went straight to you have a serious liver issue! WTF! I don't even drink! But these are all symptoms of Hepatitis - or some other liver condition. Nasty! Okay -- I'm thinking I picked up some Hep on the road trip! No biggie.... it's just bad food from some place I ate at...... This shouldn't be too bad. WRONG! A blood test confirms you have a high Bilirubin level (mine was in the 100's).... and are jaundiced (turning yellow). That starts in the whites of your eyes.

Next up is an ultra sound.

I told the guy ----- if you stop waving that little wand around ---- I'll know you found something. GUESS WHAT!?!?! They know EXACTLY what they're looking for and in 10 seconds I see the wand stop and he starts making measurements. BUDDY --- You know right then what the score is. You have a tumor and he's seeing just how big it is.

Okay -- I live in a small community. But we're from Seattle area. So we're going to Seattle and get some real docs on this mess pronto! Well --- pronto --- these days is a nightmare. Try getting in to see someone. Gwen was a real bulldog and got me in to see the guy that has done my Colonoscopies, we like him and trust him.

So first up is a MRCP --- this is an MRI that is looking for liver stuff --- the DOC needs this FIRST. If this "look" confirms what they suspect -- then the Doc will perform a ERCP. This is a scope that goes down the throat and stomach and can look at the biliary ducts of the liver. Sure enough the tumor has grown in to the ducts and is blocking them - which is why you're turning yellow and itching. Your body is backing up with poison.

Okay -- so with the ERCP (scope/tool) the Doc can slip some stents in the ducts and get them open and flowing again!! For me they could only get ONE working. The other duct is completely blocked. One is all I need. The first ERCP was exploratory with the aim to use a "temporary" stent -- in the event that the cancer/liver is "resectable" (meaning you could do surgery) -- but mine is too far gone so they did a second procedure and put more stents up further and they're of the "permanent" type. NO SURGERY IS GOING TO FIX ME.

HERE'S THE BUMMER!!!


First ERCP -- Doc says "you've probably got 18 months"....... second ERCP this is revised to "you've got 6 months". Now -- I'm just dealing with 18 months.... which sucks! But is totally "doable" in your mind. You have time to get all your **** together -- say nice things to your loved ones -- sell stuff in an orderly manor. Guys.... I have LOTS of stuff!!! And we're not just talking about cars. We have business interests. Properties. Deals half done. But 18 months you can get all that squared away. When they come back and shorten this to 6 months ---- you just melt. This is just so emotionally draining (and not just to you) it's almost impossible to deal with. Okay -- 6 friggin months AND YOU FEEL LIKE ****!!!!! UGH!!!

Luckily for me I have children.... and one of these is what I would call a true "pot head". I hate the SMELL. I hate the thought of being "high". Why would someone PAY to be messed up like that? I don't get it.....

Having said all that! It saved my life so far!!!


The kids are in the hospital room telling me that I have to start taking CBD oil and THC oil (Rick Simpson Oil) right away -- and as good fortune would have it -- one of Alex's best buddies from like 4th grade (they're 29 now!) works at a "grower". They know all about this "cure" and what I'll need to do and how to get the stuff and on and on.

I KNOW NOTHING!! I've not seen pot in 20 years! LOL


Please watch some videos on RICK SIMPSON OIL and CBD Oil !!! There's just a ton of information about this on the internet. You may even find your Doctor to be very helpful. It never hurts to discuss it!!



************************ TREATMENT *****************************



Ri
I totally understand why the medical industry is NOT interested in this "therapy".

You are going to need approximately 90 DAYS in which you will be out of your mind stoned (I'll explain because this is critical!)..... you're sick as hell.... you're weak.... you have cancer..... you have no appetite..... you may (I did) have some very terrible "things" going on inside you (and coming out of you!).

What did you expect? Your guts are rotten! There's something in there that's got a life of it's own and it's living off yours!

Rick Simpson Oil is THC and it must be of the DECARBOXYLATED kind (that's an extra step that makes it a BETTER CANCER FIGHTER). THC is the part of "pot" that makes you high when smoked. We are NOT SMOKING THC. This is an oil form - comes in a dose-able syringe.... is like pine tar.... is black when concentrated - and turns to green when thinned or spread out.

You are going to need to WORK UP TO taking at least one full syringe (1 gram or 10 ML) per day of this AND a highly concentrated form of CBD oil. This is to be taken on a 1 for 1 ratio.

When I say you're going to need to WORK UP TO this dose I mean it!! This stuff is potent to say the least! And you're going to work up to taking a dose that would put an elephant down!! Oh yeah --- Oh yeah --- Oh yeah........ you better f'n believe it!!

If you're reading this and this post is relatively new -------- PLEASE CHECK BACK AND RE-READ or SKIM the first posts for corrections or something I may have left off and went back and edited!!!






GOD DAMN IT ---- THIS IS A LIFE AND DEATH BATTLE !!! Do a little work for gods sake and help yourself!!!





If this was a car issue ---- you'd be all over it!!!! We'd all get right on the internet and we'd research our butts off!!! We'd call our friends!!! We'd do a ton of work to find out what's wrong -- and what to do about it. THEN WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT FOR A CAR PROBLEM..... AND NOT DO IT FOR YOUR OWN LIFE???

************ A DISCLAIMER *********************



For the legal community. I am NOT a Doctor. I am not prescribing anything. I am simply sharing what I did for myself. If someone wants to copy what I did and it doesn't work for them -- too damn bad for them. It working for me.

So after doing all the research....... don't skimp this part!! Research and understanding will help ease YOUR mind -- and if you get your relatives on it to help you -- they learn too!


Okay ---



What I acquired.



**DECARBOXYLATED** Rick Simpson Oil (THC EXTRACT FROM THE INDICA PLANT) --- do NOT BUY RSO or THC made from "hemp" -- even though hemp is Marijuana -- you want your THC made from INDICA strain of the plant. AND ------ IMPORTANT I THINK ------- I want the HIGHEST THC CONCENTRATION. 60% ish is normal -- I found some that's 80!!! If you're going to do this --- why not do it with the strongest med available???


Okay ------ This stuff will knock you in to next MONTH!!!!!!!


The web is full of info ------------- but you need to work up the dose a little at a time --------- and you will be incapacitated!!!! No work!!! No driving!!!! You'll basically going into hibernation for the next 2 or 3 months. Someone needs to be taking care of you!


I started by taking this on a cracker or similar. LET ME TELL YOU THIS STUFF TASTES LIKE CRAP!!!!!!!!


Go to your local pharmacy and buy GEL CAPS --- size 00 --- get a couple hundred of them they're cheap! Dose the THC and CBD oil right into the capsule and swallow with water. Done. No taste. No gagging. These capsules come apart -- squirt the stuff in -- put the cap back together until it "clicks".


Here's what the THC looks like in ONE MILLILITER syringes. THESE ARE WHAT YOU NEED ---- don't get them bigger they're too hard to use. Get 90 of these!!!! They are "expensive" and are not covered by insurance.... and THC is NOT LEGAL in most states. **DECARBOXYLATED**CBD oil IS LEGAL is all 50 states --- but you need the THC to go along with the CBD!!


In this photo ---- on the top of the photo is the ACTIVE CBD OIL ---- I buy this from ACTIVE CBD OIL DOT COM. This is their best "grade" of oil. And is what you need.

BELOW THAT (the CBD) are some syringes I bought today at the pharmacy. If you buy the stuff (THC and CBD) in the RIGHT syringe ----- the ONE ML variety ---- then you won't need the empyties! I bought one TEN ML syringe of THC and I can't measure the dose off the big ass thing!! Don't you make that mistake!! It's a total pain in the ass trying to transfer this stuff! If you need to do that EMAIL ME!!!! I'll walk you thru how to heat it up (critical temps here folks don't goof it up).

To the RIGHT SIDE is the empty capsules.


BOTTOM is the giant mistake. 10 ML of THC 80% ------- that right there folks represents about ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS worth.......






http://i919.photobucket.com/albums/a...D/IMG_0108.jpg

I'm subscribed... :D If nothing more than just for the story tellin'...

Please continue Greg...

*****************************IMPORTANT************ *************




Go back to the photo and look at the CBD package. NOTE THE LITTLE TAG on the plunger!?!?!?!



TEAR THAT TAG OFF BEFORE USING!! LOL




NOW GO BACK TO THE PHOTO AGAIN ----- do you see what appears to be a BLACK CAP on the big 10 ML syringe??? There are NONE on the empty 1 ML syringes. Don't buy them without the caps if you need to buy them this way. BEST WAY IS TO JUST BUY ONE ML SYRINGES ALREADY LOADED!!!



Ask me why.

Does the stuff leak out without the cap on them?

The dosage you need to work up to is ONE full syringe (ONE ML) per day of EACH of the THC AND THE CBD OIL taken at the same time.


I dose the CBD into one capsule and the THC into another and swallow. The "long half" of the "00" capsules will just barely hold this amount and it's just too messy to try to get all of this into one little capsule. They cost pennies.... just use 'em up. This is LIFE -- this ain't about pinching a buck! Money is useless where you're going unless you beat this!


YOU ARE GOING TO NEED TWO FULL OUNCES OF EACH OF THESE TO START! 2 full ounces is also measured out as 60 GRAMS.


This is going to cost you about FOUR THOUSAND DOLLARS. Or about a grand per ounce of each.





This is easy if you get ONE GRAM or ONE ML syringes. YOU NEED 60 of EACH!! This is the "full course" ---- but if you're like me --- I'm going to take it LONGER... and taper off and continue on a maintenance dose of 1 to 2 full syringes PER MONTH. I'm going to just do THREE syringes a month --- that is .1 ml of each per day X's 30 days per month. I figure if a little is good === more has to be better. I know. I know. This is "crazy" thinking and gets us in trouble when choosing cams and tires! But I'm going with it. It's just easier for me to remember. That amount will be easier to dose and it's gotten me to this point!

Now we're going to start walking thru the nightmare.......





You have a few things to get straight and in a big ass hurry. You need to secure your supply of THC (the illegal stuff) from a REGULATED SUPPLIER. Come on guys --- you're sick enough as it is...... and you're going to INGEST this stuff. KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TAKING.


Enlist friends and family and get your supply route down!


Then prepare for the battle of your life. You need to be in it to win it. This is the toughest thing you're going to do - it's risky - you have nothing to loose... but you MUST stick with it or you're going to fail.


When you first start out -- this stuff is going to knock you so loopy you have no idea. This is why you need support! You can not work! You NEED to just let this stuff get in to your body -- and then you need to REST and let your internal systems get to work. This will take ALL of your energy.... every waking minute for the next few weeks.

Your mouth will get dry --- you will be lit up like a Christmas tree..... You might have nightmares about dying --- remember you ARE dealing with that part of this whole bit too! And the first couple of weeks as you're getting in to this --- you're thinking and telling yourself "THERE'S NO WAY" you're going to be able to do this. It's just too weird..... and especially if you're like me and HATE being out of control or drunk or stoned. Hey! You are going to go from zero to 100 in about 2.9 seconds! I went from 32 years of sobriety to STONER SUPREME overnight. LOL


The stoner part is the worst for me personally. I have a VERY active lifestyle. I'm trying to run my investments and all the other stuff going on... and I don't have time to be juiced out of my mind. Well ---- get over it!!! You want to live or die? Or like the movie line said ---- "Get busy livin' or get busy dyin' "



WORK UP TO THE DOSE by taking more of it an hour before you go to bed..... that way you fall asleep and then the stuff starts to kick in - but by that time you're already fast asleep. This strategy really helped me to work up to the bigger doses. Without doing this strategy I would have failed because the stone was so strong that I thought I wouldn't EVER be able to work up to the right dose!!!! OMG ---- We are talking about the fact that you just took HALF THE SIZE OF A GRAIN OF WHITE RICE ----- and you're so out of it you don't know what year it is ---- and they want you to take how much??????!!!!!!?????? NO WAY!! Okay - then just die. Sorry. Your choice. I took this period of my life and said ----- THIS IS MY CHEMO! If I was on regular chemo or radiation --- I'd be having all manor of OTHER issues..... at least I know this stuff isn't what's trying to kill me!! CHEMO IS!! I can't possibly overdose on this THC and CBD..... they even tell you that.... so roll with it. ALL treatments are going to have side affects..... being stoned and having someone wait on you isn't the worst thing that's ever happened.


FOOD needs to be MILD ---- and get yourself some ENSURE or similar type drinks. They go down easy -- can travel -- they get some calories in to you. NO SUGAR NO FATS.... Sugars feed a tumor ---- and fats are hard on your liver. Lighten the load dude! Eat well! Vegetables -- green!! Lots of 'em.... You know what's healthy and what's not. Now is the time to choose wisely. And drink green tea. It's good for you. I hate it. I drink the crap anyway.

Greg I know you will fight the fight that will keep you positive and that is awesome. No words can help with what you are going through just know that our prayers are with you in these hard times. Fight that fight and make it count. If I may how long ago did you find this all out? how far in the battle are you? Do you feel any better with what you are doing? Or is it just kicking your ass? If you don't want to answer I totally understand.

Thanks buddy! And keep reading to find the answers........

**************************IMPORTANT INFO***********************




Get the type of **DECARBOXYLATED** CBD oil you need !!!! This is weak sauce!! You need the syringes I showed from ActiveCBDoil.COM



YOU WANT THIS:




http://i919.photobucket.com/albums/a...D/IMG_0117.jpg



Order here! I found these people to ship quickly.... they have all kinds of other product such as topicals (I just order some of that for Gwen's bad knees).



https://discovercbd.com/collections/...nt=12047300166





YOU DO NOT WANT THIS!! <below>





http://i919.photobucket.com/albums/a...D/IMG_0111.jpg

Here's how crazy all of this is........



If you've been doing Chemo and Radiation...... you have to take this stuff twice or three times as long to reverse the damage that's been done!!



Crazy??


How many of you know people that got cancer ------ Did everything the Doctors told them to do ----- they suffered for MONTHS ------ and died.


Sorry guys! That's not for me. No thank you very much. You can keep your poisons. I'm having fun! Living life! Just finished a 9 day road trip. I'm going to work out Wednesday (interesting to see how that's going to go - and I will report!). Without side affects? No.... but side affects I can LIVE with!

Is this a cure? I have no clue. We are going to live that out right here in these pages. You will all be with me either livin', and lovin', and laughin' ----- or we will suffer in these pages and I'll die. I really have no clue how this is going to play out. I've not walked in these shoes. I will make this statement:


I am 100% positive that this strategy has helped me to get to this point. If this continues I am happy. I am pain free. I am symptom free (mostly - there's still some morning potty issues lingering but I would expect that and it's "normal" and not "sickness"). You're shoving an awful lot of OIL in your body! We don't normally take in much oil..... so figure it out. DOH!

Glad to see you are taking this head on and thriving... I hope to never need this advice but will always remember to pass it on to those who might...

Thank you for them... And kicks Cancers Ass

Found this info site http://www.leafscience.com/2014/02/2...nnabidiol-cbd/

Absolutely fascinating to read. Greg, I never stop learning from u dude. Thanx for being brave to share it with us (publicly). Some of my prayers are for u dude....

I hope this thread stays up, and i hope this goes on to help more people (like your advice on the investment thread)...

I hope to see you on the mtn bike soon too......man, soo good to hear!!

I am really glad you are feeling better. Thank you for sharing this. RSO CBD/THC oil is no joke. Its tough to talk about this stuff to many people without sounding like some conspiracy hippy. My Dad used MMJ for his pain relief for a bad spinal fusion and it really changed him for the better. I really hope one day soon cannabis is moved from Schedule 1 to a lower level or decriminalized so more scientific studies can be done more thoroughly.

Wow! That's a great website! I didn't find that one!! THANKS!!!!!!!

Hey buddy! See ya at GOODGUYS Fort Worth!


Let's do dinner and stuff.

What a story! Sounds brutal! Your will to live certainly made a huge difference.

I'm curious, does this treatment force the tumor to recede or does it allow your body to utilize what you have? Could this make you eligible for a liver transplant? Does it work for specific cancers or all?

Thanks for sharing and we are all happy as pig in **** that you are back to a good quality of life. I can only imagine how much sweeter life must be for you.

Well..... after you get done crying..... and get over the "why me"..... and you go thru your entire life to figure out if you're going to Heaven or.....

Then you pull your **** together and get busy living!

I don't know what the stuff is doing Todd and I'm not going to find out by going and asking a Doctor. The reason behind that?? WTF do I care what the stupid little tumor is doing? It's not affecting me whatsoever..... So I FEEL good. Who goes to the doctor when they feel good? If I went -- and I'm feeling good -- and the idiot says --- well the tumor is larger. Then what? Now every day that I wake up I'm living in dread. F that! I get up -- I look around -- rub my eyes.... and assess how I feel... Like everyone else in the world - there are great days and ho hum days - but basically I feel just like I used to.

I guess your Doctor could always place you on a donor wait list - but I was told there are THREE people waiting for every ONE available. That isn't something I'm going to hang my hat on.


Now -- the other thing is that your LIVER is an amazing organ and the actual cancer I have would "never" be able to kill my liver. The liver is too tough. BUT the cancer strangles you by simply chocking off the little biliary ducts that drain the poison out. I have STENTS in my liver now - and they WILL go in and roto rooter them once or twice if needed. Crazy -- Surgeon thought I'd be back in a month or two to have that done. Not needed so far!!!

Okay --- I'm not a doctor ---- and I don't know **** about cancer. People just need to get on the internet or with their doctor - and ask about - and research the various alternative treatments for other cancers. There's so much info out there it's crazy. Remember though.... it's the internet. Make dang sure you're getting good verifiable information and products. I worried about this the most. We are INGESTING stuff!! WHAT IS IT EXACTLY? WHERE DID IT COME FROM?? Is there any certification? etc.

Everything that I've read about this particular treatment - if you care to call it that - is that the THC/CBD help to stem the blood supply to the tumor(s) - and they help boost your immune system to RECOGNIZE the cancer cells and thus start killing the little bastards. Otherwise your body doesn't even know it has cancer. And then the crap spreads all thru the Lymph system. THEN YOU'RE TOAST. The Lymph system is your guard and warrior system. Without it you are a cough away from getting pneumonia or....

Duuuude! So glad you're sharing all this, like all the other threads, this will end up helping a lot of people.
Nice work Spicoli!

Greg, that's quite the journey you've been on, and I'm glad it's paying off for you. Nice to see you feeling better. I'll keep you in my prayers.

Not sure which direction this thread is going....
When I found out about GW's deal I dug in and started looking around. A couple things I've found. Some of the information will piss you off, it's not a money maker for the pharmaceutical companies (yet) and why it's still illegal is pretty frustrating.
Cannabis was used in the medical industry long, long, long before any chemical drugs were made. It became illegal in the late 30's due to...pharmaceutical companies.
My parents grow and treat themselves, no oils just some plants on their property. My moms living with cancer and my dad doesn't take a bucket full of pills for daily functions.
It's great that this "community" is talking about it.
:thumbsup:

My thought process was that your treatments have put you in a place where modern medicine could now help you without chemo. (Remove your tumor/Open up other ducts) You get the point.

You know the intricate details and I don't. I just wanted to throw it out there.

Hey Greg,

I have tried sending you the links on face book from the local news over hear in Aus. It's about a new treatment found in North West Queensland Rain Forrest.

The Chemical name is EBC 46. Look it up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Keep up the fight Greg, sorry to hear you're going through this, but what am amazing attitude you have!! F#*@ Cancer!

The human body has a complex eco cannibidoid system, I don't think it's a freak coincidence that there is vegetation on the planet that supports this system. :sieg:

Doctors and nutritionists tell us vegetables are good for us, with the exception of marijuana because the FDA will pull their license to practice for recommending a non-FDA approved treatment.

I queried my vet today about treating my Lab with CBD due to his somewhat extreme anxiety when riding in a car, Benadryl and other recommended medications don't phase him. She told me that she would lose her license for recommending non-FDA approved treatment as well. Then mentioned she has two human friends that are living proof that RSO works.

It appears the lobbyist, big pharma, politicians, and other entities of the government want our money much more than our health. Since marijuana is a plant it cannot be patented in a manner that allows the 'players' big profit.

Here's a little Eco Cannabinoid System info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endocannabinoid_system

I spoke with a good friend who's a longtime surgical oncologists familiar with the Klatskin bile duct tumor. The problem with this tumor is it doesn't present itself until late stage, even if caught early which is very rare he said it's difficult at best to successfully remove this type of tumor and in later stages it's simply not possible.

The odds between the US and UK of contracting a Klatskin tumor are 1-2 in 100,000 so they're very rare and thus the profession has little clinical data to fall back on. So in this day of medical malpractice I don't think surgeons are overly excited about performing the surgery.

In my research I've read that the THC actually turns the cancer cells on themselves and eliminates the tumor.....key words: I've read.

The only thing I would add, Doctors are humans like the rest of us. They have their own perspectives, beliefs, and skills in the medical field, specifically. I'd want multiple opinions from experts if that's possible.

My Dad smoked cigarettes, heavily...for over 60 years. He often asked me "Why haven't I ever got lung cancer?"

My Dad also used cannabis regularly for the last 30 years of his life. This thread has me wondering if there is some connection between the two?

He died from COPD little over a year ago, his lungs were so full of tar that every time they did a chest X ray on him, they'd have to back up and do another because they'd miss the bottom parts of his lungs that had stretched down so far from the tar. The last 10 years or so he couldn't take smoking cannabis anymore, so he made brownies...his daily routine of having a brownie with his morning coffee sounds a little bit like what Greg is describing above...maybe not as scientific but one has to wonder if that is what kept him from ever getting any types of cancer and who knows how long it actually may have extended his life.

Thanks for sharing your story Greg, hope you don't mind if I pass it along to some of my friends and family that are dealing with some sort or another of cancer treatment as well.

They are absolutely human, I have numerous good motorsport/car, hunting/shooting, and golfing friends that are Docs.

Problem is they are a business and subject to heavy regulation by the insurance industry and the FDA.

Have you noticed the mental health questionnaires you have to answer now at the doctors office? Maybe it's just me because I hold a concealed carry permit? These two page questionnaires based on the nature and language are obviously mandated by their regulatory sources. My dentist office also has a similar but not as in depth mental health interrogation.

So those who abide by the regulatory authorities cannot give you their honest personal opinion without professional consequences.

Rather than try to respond individually to various suggestions etc -- which just makes for a whole bunch of reading.... I'm going to just answer ONCE - the reasons for NOT DOING surgery or Chemo etc.

Personally we have led a very charmed life style. We don't just get a room at the Beverly Wilshire. We get a suite. The point? There's not much I haven't done.





75th running of the Monaco Grand Prix? CHECK!




















25th Eddie Aikau? CHECK!














MY POINT?? The QUALITY of life must have some consideration. Life for me means being active - traveling - doing things that can't be compromised by feeling crappy -- or having to do appointments for chemo treatment - therefore being tied to some "place". A liver transplant is out of the question for me. Just not going to live with all the side affects etc that is going to entail.


AND HERE IS WHERE THE THC/CBD TREATMENT has been so "effective" to date -- mind you -- we're only 3 lousy months into this thing -- because I have been able to continue to do the things I like to do! I'm headed out on a mountain bike ride in a few minutes. Then I'm going to workout with my trainer tomorrow. And I'm planning on doing DirtFish -- and Thunderhill -- and SEMA -- and beyond. WHY?? Because I FEEL it's doable! End of story. TO me ----- that means the stuff is doing it's job. I'm over the hump.... and on the road to normality. Isn't that success enough?

How long does this last? Who knows? 2 months - 6 months - a year...... Doesn't matter. Until that day - I get up every day and go do stuff. That's living. The other -- that -- to me -- is suffering.

My dog LOVES THC on car rides!!! lol we have to give her some or she will have a heart attack!! I have no idea where the dog gets it from either!!

And that is what we talked about on our visit, Especially Anita! make plans and make them happen!! so glad to hear that things are better.
