There has been increasing research on the benefits of CBD.

I've just read that testimonial from a French member about CBD: https://member.carenity.ushttps://www.carenity.us/condition-information/magazine/testimonials/beat-chronic-pain-thanks-to-therapeutic-cannabis-42

I like the testimonial section obviously emoticon dance

I had a mastectomy last month, Oct. 2018, no chemo, now starting on a hormone pill. See how I do with that, suppose to take it for 5 years.

I completely understand as I don’t have anyone to talk to also. I’m a widow & I live alone. My oldest son died in 2021 & my youngest son & his family live 3 hours. My father is dead & my mother has chronic back pain & is immobile. My younger sister lives with our mother & she is going through a divorce from her husband who abandoned her. My sister doesn’t visit me, help me, call me & rarely texts me. I have various cousins, a niece & nephew that are spread out in nearby states but are hours away from me. After I told my friends I had cancer, they quit contacting me. I have learned how to be my own care giver. It has been very difficult. I’ll admit I’ve been depressed, cried a lot, felt sorry for myself but I never gave up. I prayed & read my Bible everyday. Then I found cancer groups online like this one where I could share what I was going through & got empathetic responses. That really kept me going. I hope you find someone to talk to but I highly recommend the online cancer chat groups.
