..my dtr used to live in Gallatin and when she her kids and hubby moved back to Seattle after 10 years they felt really liberated and free from some of the cultural restraints. When they moved 3 yrs ago, Tn was JUST THEN letting grocery stores sell wine! Wash state was the first state to allow legal pot. Yes..i know all about Colorado..... but we had legal pot six days before Colorado....even tho they both voted to legalize it the same night. Colorado sold it legally a month before we did but possession was legal here before any other state.

So for your health and your peace of mind you may want to consider one of the states where pot is legal and you can walk to the corner store and get your meds.

I know what you mean about wanting to a manual..kind of like the Dummies Guide we can buy for for everything. When I cared for my aging parents, I wished there had been a Dummies manual for me!...and all the VA stuff I had to learn about.
