Giving Everyone a Voice – Ed Talks About
I wanted to start a new series of posts from people that require help raising their voices about any subject. But since this website was built around cannabis activism i thought i should continue the theme and we should hear from other cannabis patients other than myself. If you would like to be featured in […]

Not Bonging with Philippa – A Temporary Set Back.
So earlier today (Thursday 1 September 2022) I broke my Airiser BubbleMax Bong (pictured above). I’m really sad. This was probably about to get the title bestist friend ever.

Welcome to the movement Hi Philippa, Thank you so much for becoming a member of The Disability Union! We’re thrilled to […]

Bedford and District Cerebal Palsy Society
What a beautiful statement “Enabling people with disability to live life their way”. I absolutely agree with this statement and when i met the voluteers at Daxtonbury Festival I couldn’t have met a nicer group of people. They had young people of the charity voluteering their time to help things run smoothly and although the […]

My friend Mary appears on Radio U105 in Northern Ireland to discuss Medical Cannabis. Something that I know she was very nervous about. You did a fanstastic job Mary I hope you get to do some more interviews soon. The first time is always the most daunting and you will only get better with practice. […]

My friend Jane Hinchliffe does Medical Cannabis videos
I met Jane a few months ago when I started doing the occasional zoom call for medical cannabis patients to connect with each other. Jane started uploading videos of her unboxing and vaping the cannabis products that she was being prescribed. I love Jane’s energy and how she is able to do a video at […]

New Clinic Acceptance with a brand new prescription
Before i start this post i would like to disclose that this could be a post with (TMI) Too Much Information. I really wasn’t looking forward to posting about this part because it is a story of a sexual nature. But I still feel that this should be a warning that comes with this medication […]

Another Tragedy for People with Disabilities
I woke up today to an exclusive story from The Mirror. Who reports that yet another teen is being refused NHS funded medical cannabis, which is the only medication that has stopped his seizures. The NHS would have to find approximatley £26,000 per year which dwarfs the costs of hospital treatment once the medication can […]

Please Help – The Medical Cannabis Clinicians Society – MP Letter.
Hi everyone. If you reside in the UK I would really like your help please. As a medical cannabis patient it can get very frustrating at times gaining access to medical cannabis and most people are completely locked out of being able to even try this medication because of the prohibative costs. This is due […]

The Skin and Cannabis
It looks like there is still an awful lot of research to do when it comes to skin conditions being treated with cannabis. It looks like CBD helps with acne and I have read somewhere that THC can act very much like testosterone and cause acne which is probably the reason that I am currently […]

Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, Autism and ADHD.
This is not something i have studied inn great detail but i have wondered whether I am on the spectrum of both these conditions. I don’t suppose i will ever know now that the NHS is all but privatised. It’s not like i could go for a test anyway i think the waiting list is […]

EDS & Postural Orthostatic Taccycardia Syndrome (POTS)

Fed up of Toxic Behaviours
I really don’t know what is going on, but i seem to have become a magnet for toxic behaviours in the last couple of years. From women with really quite nasty behaviour who take credit for other people’s work and can’t hold a conversation with anyone without shouting and screaming and being completely disrepectful, to […]

EDS Awareness – Gastroperesis
My friend Jenny Tate has this to say about gastroperesis. Taken from her Facebook page with permission. Jenny also has a music blog called Rock Queen Reviews. *Ehlers Danlos Syndrome Awareness Month post* TMI WARNING. Gastro stuff. This isn’t stuff I’d usually post on here, as it’s obviously embarasssing, but in the cause of awareness […]

The Endo Cannabinoid System
With the help of some of my Hemp/Cannabis activist friends, The National institute of health and other media outlets, I though I would do a post on the Endocannabinoid system. Let’s start with:- Who/what species have an endocannabinoid system? All animals, including vertebrates (mammals, birds, reptiles, and fish) and invertebrates (sea urchins, leeches, mussels, nematodes, […]
