Good Morning Senior (and other) Friends

IT IS OFFICIAL !!!! The New York Times ran an article 
(http://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/nyregion/retirementmedicinal. 
marijuana } OR go to google and put in NYTimes medical marijuana and the article should pop up. So it must be true if it is in the NYTimes ..... POT IS GOOD !!!!!

Call it what you want....cannabis, weed, pot, reefer, herb, dope, or grass....it COULD be beneficial for those of us with PD, aches, pains, old age, etc etc.

I have gotten liquid marijuana from a local DC doctor (yes its legal). At the end of a long (or short) day, at around 5 o'clock, a couple of drops under the tongue and a glass of Pinot Grigio seems to take the edge off.....NOT a "high" (like college days) but a relaxation ? easing ? lessening of anxiety ? As my favorite T shirt says 'WHATEVER'.

I may have some new readers (I have been passing out my 'cards')
Quick update about me and the blog......I am 66, 4th generation PD, have the LRRK2 gene, retired MCPS teacher, mom, grandma, sister, wife, friend.

I am obsessed with feeding birds, battling squirrels, my 2 cats, word puzzles, Jeopardy, chocolate, moving furniture and rocks, pulling weeds, YA KNOW, the usual insanity.

No need to comment on the blog. You can always reach me at dianegtunis@gmail.com for comments and advice!!!
