A dear friend rang me recently concerned about her beautiful friend who has been through so much with two lots of cancers and all the chemo/radiation and other painful tests that go along with this dreadful condition over the last two years. My friend is sad and feeling helpless. She sees her friend is tiring, mentally and physically as if she has lost her will to fight her condition. She has stopped all treatments and medications. Her doctor has given her permission to try the cannabis oil but says it may not help everybody and this has put up a barrier in her friend’s mind.
I have been there and I know how I felt. I had experienced so much pain and vomiting, loss of weight and muscle wastage due to the stomach cancer. What appetite I had was diminished by the radiation and chemo and in its place were metallic tastes, blisters in the mouth, loss of taste and smell along with my body hair.
I could feel myself going and even accepted my fate because I was having trouble coping and the mainstream medications were not helping me.
If my daughter had not advised me to try cannabis butter I know I would not be here today.
With my nursing background, I was dead against taking any illegal substance however, when you are in a situation of life and death and your family are saying, "please mum we don't want to lose you". I bit the bullet and started taking this amazing herbal medicine. I will let you all into a little secret. I did not like the taste and smell of this green stuff even though I do like the smell of cut grass (this is what cannabis smells like when it is cooking). I had to remind myself this is herbal medicine. I would either have a half or a whole teaspoon on a quarter piece of toast or a cheese ched biscuit with promite four times a day it depended on my amount of pain I was experiencing. Then I would quickly chew it up and wash it down with a small cup of weak black tea. The relief was quick and I could relax and later eat a little food without throwing up. If you do not maintain food or fluids your body will become too weak to fight. You can make up muffins and cakes and savoury morsels with this herbal butter.
My friend has informed me that NSW has now legalized the cannabis/oil. I could have done with this wonderful oil. So easy just place the drops under the tongue, because you have special glands there, this special herbal medicine goes very quickly into the blood stream giving a very quick response. Having trouble with the taste place it on a teaspoon with something nice then place under the tongue.
Keep Well and Enjoy Life

Cannabis-based medicines have so far only been available to patients enrolled in clinical trials in NSW, but Premier Mike Baird said with regulatory changes the drugs could be prescribed for patients who have exhausted standard treatment options.
"People who are seriously ill should be able to access these medicines if they are the most appropriate next step in their treatment," Mr Baird said on Sunday.
