Always enjoy your viewpoint 😎👍🌻
When the Civil War Ended (It Was War, Not Civil)
There were no heroes and villains. A suffering divided country. War was not just about slavery. My Great Great Grandfather died fighting for the Union army. Teach that.
Sherman burned 🔥 a path to the Sea,
Starved Southern Women & Children & assaulted to force the South (95% not slave owners) to surrender.
Richmond Destroyed.
Same city that wants to open all the old wounds again.
Let’s teach both sides.
War is Hell.
Photo:Richmond flour mill 😢
We all have different feelings Re: “Civil” War ,built on stories, history. Will Critical Race Theory tell about my Caucasian Great Great Grandfather, Fresh off the boat from Bohemia, left Wife and 4 Orphans. His wife fought for $5 a month pension-Army shortened his name to Green.
My blog posts contemplating the War. Was it Really Necessary?

Thank God @amazon @JeffBezos are way bigger than little old #MS riddled me, sometimes in a heap of hurt, no, that’s HURT 😢
I’ve written letters that never are answered traveloguefortheuniverse.blogspot.com/search?q=Canna…
Now found deltaeffex.com and prefer Delta 8, 10 to Cannabis for Symptoms.
So imagine my surprise as Virginia USA Quasi-Legalized a measured amount of Cannabis, There are New Laws and Regulations (feel the price of a nickel sack go astronomical) in pipe-line.
Banning Post office from delivering vaping products, and Other carriers will be banned too 🤔
Ahhh, I get it, the Legislators formulate their law building by the forces of Money Flow. Delta Effex developed and makes a Superior Hemp Product (legalized under Farm Bill). THC<0.3%. With #Terpenes that promotes, for me, less pain, more active, feel Better ❤️‍🩹

Yesterday I didn’t want to know.I have a few more risk factors. Have an excellent medical team and am losing weight, Rx HTN, Type 2 DM,⬆️ Chol well treated. Ozempic helped me lose 40 pounds and A1C now Normal. Costs $2,000 a month. Medicare and retirement coinsurance covers most. Image
Part of me wants to tell proponents of #SinglePayer Health insurance in the USA 🇺🇸 difference between @NHSuk website and American Capitalism and Benefits of Employment(really a component of salary package). Part of me knows “they” will persist until they need $80,000 a year Meds.
Was searching to see if #BoJo has better healthcare cost coverage than 🇬🇧 citizens do. Here 🇺🇸 Lawmakers who want #MedicareForAll for us little people will still have Cadillac plan, for your country Rolls Royce? What I found was worse. theguardian.com/society/2020/j… @guardian get ready.

@RepSpanberger @MarkWarner @timkaine @RalphNortham I have suffered without #MedicalCannabis since moving to Virginia 3 years ago from Vermont.I have Severe Pain from #MultipleSclerosis I got a Medical card here but no product available. Finally finding relief with Delta 8 and 10.
A Local Vape vendor had some crude version, but still effective. I looked for better Therapeutic Products, Better Prices. I found deltaeffex.com/pages/faq-delt… A Great product. First time I haven’t had bone crushing pain.I ordered more. It’s expensive. It’s worth it.
Today I found out Lawmakers are promoting Ban on Mail order Vaporizer products. @UPS And @FedEx are following suit. The one Non-Narcotic, most effective pain relief I have found and they are in California! All I can do is tweet because the Comment period has conveniently passed.

When you cite a @washingtonpost poll or any news from @Google @CNN @nytimes you will find news outlets I hang up on 📞 I am Conservative, a #realDonaldTrump supporter, @DonaldJTrumpJr ‘s Dad. He’s banned from Twitter. Trump got the shots After getting #COVID19 . I took shots.
The only Real Way to Study whether Political Choices affect #vaccines acceptance and adherence to current guidelines,
Is to do a Study, Not a Poll. Not guesstimate by “leaning voters”
PBS Wisconsin spun this one skillfully pbswisconsin.org/news-item/the-…
Beyond Conservative bashing Press
blaming one political party based on phone poll
I believe in the Patient Right to Self Determination
We, Each of us have the Right to determine our own destiny
Refusing the vaccine is a right.

Rewatching this video and I am finding my Apollo to be essential in my daily routine 😎 My HRV=Heart Rate Variability steadily rising , a little up and down. Overall riding. Indicator of Resilience. ⁦@DrJosephMaroon⁩ I call HRV the Fifth vital sign.
@Apollo_Neuro paired with @ouraring have helped immensely 😎👍🏼🌻

traveloguefortheuniverse.blogspot.com/search?q=Apollo
Started using Apollo September 2020 Baseline HRV =18
Slow steady rise to 34 so far.
Dip was when I had a fever, seizure (needed increase in meds)and treated for a UTI.

Thank You @JordanTishlerMD for your information on #MedicalCannabis
Also for consultation with me. You helped me 👍🏼
Virginia USA Today Quasi legalized it with many hoops, scarce availability and prohibitive pricing. Is this Really what the Doctor ordered? @GovRalphNortham ?
I have a card.
3rd year.
No access.
Can have 4 plants, not 5.
My need far from recreational.
I have distressing symptoms of the #MonSter known as #MS.
All the lines of this complicated bill translates to money transfer
And micromanaging.
Too many details to go one by one.🙄
My Poor Doctors I Love at @UVA Hospital couldn’t quite grasp the #MedicalCannabis Application. I didn’t push it. In my experience working many years with Neurologists, they run Hot and Cold on using Cannabis for #MS symptoms. Don’t ask. Don’t tell.
