Although I haven't written my bio yet, there will be a full section about my use of marijuana. I have a number of very painful chronic illness. Some of them are physical, others mental.

I know the feeling of desperation when the doctors tell you to use your medication "sparingly" when you don't want to use it all but require relief. At that point, you'll try anything.

I am also a marijuana mom. Our daughter is 3 and from the beginning she knew that it was Mama Medicine. Education and advocacy is one of my goals.

While I am in a state that is legal for MMJ, finding a prescribing doctor has proved a major challenge.

I'm looking forward to reading your blog, sharing stories as we go.
