True story here:
I grew up in a household that reeked of pot 24 hours a day. My mother and her friends all smoked a ridiculous amount. (Seriously, I tell people how much I witnessed personally and they don't believe it)
Suffice it to say, I grew up with a strong bias against it.
It wasn't until my oldest daughter developed a rare form of cancer when she was 12 that I relaxed my stance on it after her doctor told me that he wanted to give her cannabis capsules as part of her treatment (She wasn't taking the chemo well). The change in her was massive. Her pain level had decreased significantly, and I did a 180 on my thought process. I immediately became a "legalize it" kind of guy.
Now, I am on disability for knee injuries sustained, and my case nurse recommended it to me. My first bottle of cannabis oil arrives next week.

(I may have to share this story on my own page, come to think of it)
