Jazzmoose Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 (edited) You seem to be taking it in stride... Well, I don't see much of a choice. I never understood that "brave battle against cancer" thing; I mean, what choice do you have but to battle it? Anyway, it's one of those cancers that isn't curable at this point, so it's not like I'm going to survive it. On the other hand, now that I'm getting treatment, it's not like it's going to kill me any time soon either. I asked my doctor last October if I was being too optimistic to buy Christmas cars and he laughed and said to go ahead and buy a new car if I didn't mind making all the payments. Of course, he didn't explain how to pay for a new car with the medical bills pouring in... Plus, to get back on topic, I'm now legal...

JSngry Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 Of course, he didn't explain how to pay for a new car with the medical bills pouring in... Doctor totes the note, bills insurance for some kind of service or another, kicks the money back to you so you can pay him for him toting the note, it's all legal, plus you get to not just own and drive the car of your dreams, but to own and drive the car of your dreams while being legally stoned. And getting insurance to pay for ALL of it. Dude, you can DO this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 Sorry to hear that, hope you are getting healthier, slowly. I get the "brave battle." If nothing else, cancer patients may have to face a lot of tough decisions and take courage in hand to make them. And it takes courage to agree to these treatments.

Jazzmoose Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 I see what you mean. The treatments now are more of an inconvenience than anything else, but the plan is to have an operation at some point involving stem cell transfer and massive chemo and radiation and such. We'll see how brave I am at that point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve(thelil) Posted June 3, 2013 Report Share Posted June 3, 2013 You can but marijuana here in the coffee shops, a wide variety and some ready rolled. My only recommendation - unless you want to instantly astrally project and have a Tangerine Dream album to hand - never, ever, smoke the White Widow variety. I don't assume your intent was to make anyone jealous. But I am jealous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzmoose Posted November 2, 2015 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 (edited) Thanks guys. I haven't been here for a while; kind of gave myself an "internet time out", at least as far as forums go.  So now I guess you know; if you want to leave a message for me, just put it a pot thread...  By the way, the cancer thing is going fine. I only have to go in for chemo once a month now, and so far the cancer is pretty beat down and not offering much of a fight. NOT THAT I'M COMPLAINING! The oncologist and I ran out of jokes to swap, so I only see him every other month. All in all, I'm pretty lucky as far as cancer patients go.

Dan Gould Posted November 2, 2015 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 Very glad to hear it Mark. Since I never partook, a thread about pesticide in pot was something I would never have read so I was very surprised to see how that thread had turned and to learn of you situation. Which seems pretty good now, so ...
