I am paralysed from the lower back down. Cannabis acts as a relaxant on my leg and stomach muscles which relieves pressure on my bladder. I am less prone to excessive, uncomfortable sweats, and I have a more positive outlook on life. With the use of cannabis I am able to see beyond my temporary suffering to a more positive future. I get my medicine from the BC Compassion Club Society because the people who work there and the other members create an community atmosphere that is conducive to healing.
