Guest guest Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 LOL! I was trying to be discreet Butch.......BUSTED.....it works, thats all i know. Surely they can create an eye drop . I know they have the tablets which if you can hold down water or food is great, but often those who have had cancer treatment can't keep it down long enough, even a wrist gel would help. I can't imagine what the infused oil blended with arnica or other herbs could do for pain and I do know that the patients I knew who did have access to the herb stated it helped their pain meds work better, they could rest, and they felt calm......so it has its place... If they want to reform our society on substance abuse they can start with alcohol. If you can't advertise cigarrettes, then you shouldn't be able to advertise alcohol.....I am a by product of alcoholism and its affect on those around them.....me ole irish 'da' was dreadful when drinking and I've seen so many families devastated by this to include that new family that goes on their first vacation and is wiped out by some guy with a rap sheet as long as your arm -the cause due to drinking and driving.....again....... That said I do wish they would keep everclear and have you sign for it so I can make stuff with my herbs..... But I do feel both hemps have their place and I'm not coming from a hippy stance. I rather like being in control or aware at all times.....but i do think with neuralgia it could help, and perhaps with anorexia within a therapeutic setting.....I think its able to be refined enough to where it wouldn't be a problem....shoot, the thing now is oxycontin and fentanyl patches on the street and cooking down otc cold medications...... okay, I am getting waaaaaaaaaaaa off subject. I knew some recruiters who consistantly purchased those fast flush herbal drinks to get people into service...those guys have a quota to meet and most of whats coming in can't pass the UA.......I hear the Army has lowered some standards about past records and also scores on the afsa? (sp). My grand dad made medicines. He knew how to cure decubitis in a diabetic, burns, pneumonia ......and I never got to live close to him to have him teach me. But he could it. That was back in Korea. He literally learned something from every country he was stationed on local home made medicines and he was good. Dang, I wish I'd done this at 15. No , he wasn't a doctor but I do recall they'd call him from time to time and say 'Harry, I have a patient with a decubitis that I just dont think can be helped, what do you have?' I know one thing was he concocted an ointment with plants, fruits, honey, his theory was the skin was being deprived of nutrition because of circulatory issues...and I know he could mix a silver nitrate salve that would fix dang near any burn too. evie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
