Ok, I've just had a half a gummy with THC. Used to smoke on weekends.....then when I got [View all]

my 2nd knee totally replaced, I quit when my blood pressure dropped and I went to the hospital because I thought I was gonna die. Turns out my pain pills mixed with my blood pressure pills dropped my blood pressure to a point where I really did think I was going to die. Then my husband ended up in the hospital and eventually in a memory care facility and did pass away last Saturday. So after 4 months of almost giving up, my neighbor gave me a few gummies to get relaxed and chill out because of all that did happen. I did have a half a gummy last night, first THC experience since January 5th. I went to bed @ 9:00pm CDT, which was mistake, because I didn’t sleep, so I got up at midnight and saw the aurora borealis. It was beautiful. Did get about 5 hours of sleep and really don’t know why I did go to bed at 9:00, just habit I guess…….So, had the other half of the gummy a half an hour ago and am and going to try to experience it at full awakeness. Wish me luck.
