Cannabis Saved My Life – Multiple Sclerosis
Teri Heede, a medical marijuana patient with multiple sclerosis, at her home with marijuana plants in her backyard in Makakilo, Oahu.
by Ocean Malandra
This is the story of Teri Heede, who went from being bedbound and pain racked to taking on the system with the help of medical marijuana. It’s just one of the stories profiled in Reset’s new book Cannabis Saved My Life by award-winning journalist Elizabeth Limbach (available online via Whitman Publishing). The book features interviews and testimonies from 46 different patients who were able to reclaim their life after facing serious illnesses — everything from cancer to depression — thanks to the little herb that could.
“Active” is the last word usually used to describe those with multiple sclerosis. A degenerative disease that affects over 2 million people worldwide, MS often causes paralysis, blindness, and cognitive dysfunction that worsens over time, as well as excruciating daily pain.
The entire central nervous system of MS sufferers, including the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves are under constant attack and the medical community still does not know exactly why. Nor do they have a cure.
This is where medical marijuana comes in. For MS sufferers, cannabis offers immediate pain relief, although its benefits do not stop there. Far from it.
“I have a theory about MS,” says Teri Heede, a Vietnam War veteran who was diagnosed with MS twenty years ago. Now a politically involved cannabis crusader in her community in Oahu, Hawaii, Teri is definitely “active” in every sense of the word.
