When I finally figured out just how fragile the human body actually was, I found out the hard way.
Perhaps that’s what comes from a lifetime of thinking that I was somewhat invincible.
It’s not that I actually thought I was bulletproof or immune to injury, but there was something subconscious going on. And it made the reality of my physical trauma all that much tougher to deal with. Thanks to the local cannabis spot, I’m on my way to what I hope is a full recovery. I struggled mightily prior to discovering the benefits of indica, sativa and hybrid strains. Marijuana was something I had tried back in college. But it just wasn’t high energy enough for me. I wanted to be tasting adrenaline in my mouth and taking risks. That was not something I could do while smoking recreational marijuana. So I just never got into it. But once I got hit by that car, things changed and cannabis soon became a part of my life. Actually, it was a doctor who suggested that I give sativa and indica strains a shot. I was not at all into using the heavy opioid meds for pain any longer than I had to. But I also wanted something to manage pain and help me get the most out of my physical therapy. So I hobbled myself into the local cannabis spot and picked up a variety of cannabis products. The indica strains really do help me stretch my muscles and I have a greater range of motion. But I think the sativa strains are every bit as important. They help me to stay positive and maintain a perspective of hope as I continue on my way toward what will be a new normal for me.
