My mother in law and father in law are 90. Use 2.5 mg eatable 2 to 3 times 3day and lotion for hands 2 to three times a day. At first I just told them it was weeds and herbs. Mother in law was real insistent. She finally gave up and said I don't care what it is it works and keep it coming

My mother in law was the same when she got cancer. Was anti cannabis all her life but soon loved my caps.

Being a teenager in the 70s there was a lot of access to cannabis. We would rather smoke a joint then drink and it was a lot easier to carry when you were going to concerts. . Girls would hide it In their boots, hair and assorted other places that the guards were not allowed to check. Back then we never even thought of it being a medicinal product. There are many more of the older generation that partake then some younger people may think.

Well actually us older folks still think we're young .

If it's clean and pure weed without any mold or chemicals, i think it should be fine. Start with a small dose of course and see how she reacts.
How would she consume it? I would suggest edibles instead of smoking.

I’m glad that you came to the professionals on a RIU before just dosing grandma LOL. Any updates? I would try a indica or mostly indica hybrid. Sativas give some people anxiety. Also remember to start super low because a lot of things affect the elderly more intensely

Don’t get torn up about it. You were doing a very noble thing for grandma and you have to understand you are dealing with almost 100 years of propaganda and associating weed with hard drugs like heroin. I know how people like that are especially if the grew up in the 50’s or never experienced cannabis. You see for what it is which is an herb and a medicine and they see it as a street drug. It’s extra painful because you did this with a kind heart and wanted to share something special with somebody that you love. Their reaction made it feel dirty and cheapened how you felt about yourself. I can understand that kind of hurt. Just realize they don’t understand what you me and millions of others understand that this is a medicine. Don’t let them get you down because they don’t know any better

I feel like I've discovered this amazing thing that means nothing if I'm watching my loved ones suffer...I feel like it's more than medicine too....its all spiritual, something I can't describe in words...and you know what I mean because you smoke too..but they don't it's like they are brainwashed or something idk...I just feel I have failed them...I can't save them but I still have to save myself but that hurts knowing I could help but can't...it's like watching somebody drown but you can't swim ethier... basically there's nothing I can do

No worries I have had a similar experience with somebody who is drinking themselves to death. I wanted to get him high thinking maybe it would help and got my shit jumped about how he has enough problems already and adding drugs is a stupid thing. I totally get how much it hurts you because you are trying to do good for somebody you care about and people without any concept of how much you could help bash you for being a piece of shit. Again it’s not you it’s what they have been led to believe all of their lives. I got that anti-drug shit crammed down my throat to the point that now even as an adult I still feel guilt about toking weed. I fucking hate it. Who jumped your shit?

My gma and my gf...well probably shouldn't call her my gf anymore...but we are trying to work things out...but yea ever since I was 13 I started smoking saved the seeds and had been trying to grow ever since...I guess the plant called on me. I got my first job took my check bought a light and a bag of soil...I was 16 I think but anyway I tried telling everybody that this plant will be the future of this world and if it will be legalized this could open jobs etc...nobody believed me, in fact I got so much shit for even bringing the topic up...and now look I was right and still with all the studies and news report proving that it is beneficial, they still reject it...it's the ego. I don't know what to do.
