I have been giving my Barry 1 drop of cannibis oil on his gums twice a day for 2 days now.

He is not angry anymore and he is more lucid.

We cant expect him to be fully healed as it is PSP. But if this makes him les stressed with and interested in food and smiling again. Then so be it. 💛

That's not a bad idea considering we as carers are going through the same hell 💛

Too late for my darling but as a matter of interest, where do you get cannabis oil from?

My son - in - law is a paraplegic and he gets the oil for his condition. So he gets it for me.

It was recommended by my Barry's Neurologist who has many patients that use it. The medical world are understanding its value. Not so much Tabu anymore.💛

Thanks for that. I hope Barry continues to remain calm and lucid for a very long time.

I'm wondering how I can acquire some cannabis oil in Virginia? Does anyone have any ideas?

We are in Cape Town South Africa but I'm sure most Neurologists will know where you can get it. 💛

Don't know where you are in VA but Medical marijuana is legal in DC and MD.

Wow...did not know that. I can get to MD in an hour.

Did some initial reading. Still not entirely clear if we need to be Maryland resident or simply treated by a Maryland physician. They do list "Compassionate Care" as a qualifying condition and I believe that may well apply to our situation.

It makes total sense! Really, why should they have to spend a single moment stressed out or anxious? Thanks for sharing this.

I asked the first neuro about it and he looked at like I was batty - He looked at my husband and was so serious saying that was not indicated here~~~I laughed and said I don't want it for him - I wanted it for me!!!!!!!

I have heard it works for cramps with Parkinsons.

That is very interesting A, Ben is getting muscle cramps and the medication he is on doesn't seem to help. Not sure about legality of cannabis oil in the U.K. but I'm going to discuss with the GP. Thanks for the info.

Love Kate xxx
