Um...story?

This exact same thing happened to my roommates mother. First day of vacation and BAM, broken back. She hated taking the pills and felt like a zombie all of the time. We don't technically have sanctioned medical marijuana in our state, but we convinced her to drop the pills and just toke a few times a day. Hasn't touched pain meds since. She even bought a vaporizer that we get to use at our convenience! Just a suggestion ;)

Ha well there ya go! I just can't imagine you would have any trouble getting approved lol. Or you already thought of this and are at about a [5] or [6] right now.
