I have been diagnosed with glaucoma for almost a year now and I've been searching any alternative medicine that can help me then i came across this article that says marijuana can be used to treat and prevent glaucoma. I've been planning to try this kind of strain here in http://www.ilovegrowingmarijuana.com/purple-weed/ but i have no idea where to start or buy. Can you guys give me any tips or any ideas that can help me?

It's still illegal here. Here's the story www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-44507135 - she's had it returned now and the law is being looked at. As for banana ice cream - I often make it. It's incredible that you can make a really nice ice cream with just one ingredient! Your version looks delicious.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.thatspurrfect.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">That's Purrfect</a><br /><a href="http://www.aroundmykitchentable.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Around My Kitchen Table</a>Around My Kitchen Tablehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01840917368903178857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762107274389650601.post-87194899158111930992018-07-26T11:10:47.279-04:002018-07-26T11:10:47.279-04:00Riptides are scary.

They are in Guelph, unless they have several outlets. Well I guess I will find out next week. The bowling friends (he is on my team, wife takes Mojo) tells me she is on pills these days.

My friend, from Vancouver, was when he was in Hawaii. He said he was suddenly taken out into the ocean so he remained calm and swam "with it" until it brought him back in. I would have freaked. I am on the medical mojo and it does help. Yes, they mail it but via special delivery so you receive it in 2 days tops. There is no wring on it to show what it is so that is good. I am with Tweed and I take the CBV (non-high one) 3 times a day which helps with pain. It comes with a "syringe" that you place in the bottle and suck up some oil and then squirt it under the tongue. You start with a small dose first and work your way up until you feel satisfied with that dosage. I also take the THC (high version) at night-once per day and this not only helps with pain but with sleep and it does help. I liked Tweed best which is the company and found them helpful but it is not cheap. I find it worthwhile since i will do almost anything to control my constant pain. It doesn't get rid of it but it calms it down which really helpsBirgithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09439720285857050428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762107274389650601.post-4809096576982082782018-07-26T09:23:35.839-04:002018-07-26T09:23:35.839-04:00I was a tad surprised to see this happening at Eme...I was a tad surprised to see this happening at Emerald Isle Diane.

In our mid teens my brother and I were caught in one - along with dozens of others who were carried out a long way. Luckily our parents had sent us to classes where we'd been taught how to get out of it so we rescued ourselves unlike the others. It was especially lucky as we caught sight of a small boy who was being swept out near us us and if we hadn't been there he would certainly have drowned.Helen V.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07989670682260643429noreply@blogger.com
