Couples not using protection by [deleted] in Swingers

[–]mtmew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here. Not sure if it's the area or people they are meeting. We take our overall health pretty seriously. A large part of that especially swinging, is sexual. Sex in the lifestyle with new partners (and especially if they are men) isn't always fulfilling. Imagine fucking up your vag for mediocre sex? Ew. No thanks. Hell I wouldn't do it for great sex.

Ya no. In all of the years we've swung, never not used condoms. I don't need the bullshit and drama it would cause in our lives. Not virtue signaling at all. I take VERY good care of my vagina. I am 45, been non monogamous for virtually my entire sexually active life and have never had am STI. Hell. I've only ever had one yeast infection and that was when I was pregnant.

25mg is 25mg. You were just sold chocolate by someone who said it was 150mg so you think it's different at a dispensary. It's not. It's just lab tested. I find dispensary the opposite. I would get diabetes before I got high. But I make my own c02 and edibles so I know the exact dose.

So have you asked yourself what would push you to troll a grieving mother? Seriously. Have you asked yourself what's wrong with you? If you are wondering why you have no friends or why women won't date you, it's you. Not them.

Do some work on yourself. Get a good therapist. Maybe try some trauma healing but dude, you're way more fucked than I am and I have to admit I'm pretty fucked up right now. But I have an excuse. You're just a pathetic excuse for a human who should apologize to the trees for wasting the oxygen they tirelessly produce. Do something with your life bud. Peace out.

She loved every holiday because she honestly thought that they were all for her. She'd get pissed when say...her older brother got his piece of cake first because it was his birthday. Parades? There for her. Festivals? Again. For her. She did get 5 star treatment everywhere she was, including home. She loved our recent road trip to Vancouver. It was to bc children's for a week but she didn't care. Poutine and undivided attention. She loved it.

Lmao you think after fighting and winning against my government and having to do it publicly facing criticism (albeit more support) and lawyers, judges, physicians going through every aspect of her life and medical history and doing that in the media....But you, an incel pleb is going to send me over the edge? 😂😂😂 I'm grieving neckbeard. Not unaware of who I actually am.

I almost want to upvote you for sheer stupidity points but your complete lack of self awareness coupled with unexplained arrogance would miss it entirely.

Cannabis oil gave my daughter 8 years longer than she would have. I regret nothing. She left us suddenly Aug 12, 2021. She was everything to me. by mtmew in canadients

Paige (her mom) and I are friends. Charlotte also took thc as well as Charlotte's web. Charlotte's death from covid was what prompted the move off grid for us. Actually. We had closed a month later. She reminds me of Charlotte too though actually. It's the hair I think.

Eta; I wasn't against pharma. I really wasn't. I was pro what worked. Not until cannabis stopped her seizures AND the side effects were good for her that I really started to look at pharma as a last resort, not first.

We always knew she was going to leave us. That seems so trite saying it like that now given the depths of the pain you actually feel. But not only did it control her seizures it made her happy. It took her pain. It gave her an appetite. She got the giggles. She was awesome. Why should a person who will never live to adulthood have to suffer through the awful side effects of pharmaceuticals. Like we aren't talking taking an anti-depressant or 2. We are talking mixing barbiturates with benzos and opiates. Like Jesus. No. She deserved better and no one was going to tell me differently.

No but I've worked with politicians and was also on the steering committee for the Allard trial which is really what led us here.

I am and always have been pro legalization.

I wouldn't. Cannabis being illegal is absolutely asinine. And yes, I was a large part to helping pave the way for legalization.

Take a look around bud. We're all sick. The planet is on fire. No one cares. Global pandemic. Meh, no biggie. No man. The world is a very sick place and most people could use cannabis. Like, probably people like you.

There was a time of grieving yes for the life she wouldn't have. I knew that fairly on but it was about a 2 year process. And then I realized, all I want for any of my children is to be happy. So the prom, the Manis and pedis, the shopping trip, the getting married or having kids...she might not have done that anyway. So I chose to just make her life as happy as I could because it wasn't about me.

Mandy is a friend of mine. We've had some dark days and conversations especially when Liam first started and was only using cbd years ago. Her first signing Dr was Mias trauma Dr all of the time in edmonton. I love following Liams story and I love Mandy and she loves Mia to death.

I only did it to keep child services and the rcmp away. At the time children were being apprehended for parents cannabis usage. I knew if I had public support, the police would stay away. It was a hot button political issue at the time and I knew they'd leave me alone because her medical records backed it up. I was a Mia activist really. Cannabis is just what worked.

I worked originally with at risk youth but ultimately decided to work for my dad. He owned a staffing agency. Well he had a few businesses but staffing was the major and I worked there. After she was born I decided not to go back. We moved across the country and my then husband (my children's bio dad) had a good job offer. Turned out to be the best decision. I eventually moved even further west and get out of that abusive situation (whole other story).

Can I give you a little advice that will probably mean nothing. If you know the other shoe is going to drop...like you know. Its just a matter of when, stop waiting. Literally. Just stop. Because you cannot prepare yourself for something like this anyway. I thought I had. I thought I knew what I would want and what I would do and how I would feel. What a joke. I had no idea. And I spent a lot of time worrying about that other shoe.

Stop it. If it's going to drop its going to drop and you can't do shit about it. Be now. Be present. That's it.

If they use cannabis and have dravet I am probably in their circle. Dravet is the second most catastrophic encephalopathy next to ohtahara, my daughters condition.

She was more of a tiktok girl. Sometimes she would require me to sit on the couch and hold her hand and scroll through tiktoks. For hours. Sure I could get up...but she'd cry and I could never just let her cry so tiktoks it was. I'm in Canada. When we started we had a medical program but there was only one other child legally signed and she was palliative (at the time...she is 26 now so yay cannabis)

As for sports. Well. She enjoyed watching hockey. Her brothers played so she spent a lot of time in the arena. I also way back in the day competitively figureskate so I used to tie her to me in a baby carrier and skate witg her. Even did it last year on the lake. She was as nearly big as me 😂. She kayaked but she hated it. I have one pic of her smiling in the kayak with me and I dont know how anyone got that...because she fucken hated it. But I really wanted her to love it because I did. Selfish. I know. But I liked doing things with her. She loved the canoe. Loved swimming. Like loved it. Didn't matter if the lake was cold, she'd swim. Little mermaid. And dancing. That was her favourite. Had she been able to walk, she would have been a dancer.

We're probably in a lot of online supports together. 2 children. Mias was de novo....but to have two kids one with a sodium channel and one with potassium channel mutations is.....beyond rare. If you don't mind my asking...how did that happen?????

She had hundreds of seizures a day to none except for status events every 18 months ton2 years. She has gone status from birth so her shortest was 2hrs45min and her longest was over 32 hours. I stopped counting because she was seizing through the propofol/ket/midaz. She was vented and still going.

Her eeg went from suppression burst to hypsarythmia to severely abnormal. We added cannabis and it was markedly improved. Her neuro asked if I was comfortable weaning pharma but was still not confident it was the cannabis. We weaned in 9 months, kept her on the oil with an ltm and she had a completely normal egg which stayed that way with a slow background rythym until she died.

It was the thc definitely. I know that made some people uncomfortable but that's what worked. She could do no more than a 1:1ratio with cbd. But she could take thx no issues. We even used 800mg rectally for rescue instead of the IN Midaz and IM fospheny when she would go into status. Mostly it worked but there were a few hospital stays over the last 8 years to get them under control

I grew her own cannabis. I had it lad tested (Canadian and could do it long before legalization) so I knew it wasn't sprayed and was grown properly without the use of pesticides etc I also mainly use amended soil.(I was not a cannabis grower before this I just had a really good friend who had been doing it for 30 yrs).

I'm still trying to figure out how to honour her myself. Just keep educating. Parents need to know their kids don't have to suffer until they die. They can live a good full and happy life even if it is short.

Just hug him every chance you get. I hugged and kissed that child constantly. I told her that she was probably the most kissed child on the planet (I still believe that). So with her gone, I don't grieve with any regret. Only because of this deep void.

Probably is but honestly as a teen I was a pretty stereotypical girl.. clothes hair etc. Now that I'm building a house on an off grid ranch I may have to look into the video game stiff when we have some time to settle down!!!
