I am (suddenly!) the caregiver for my parents and I live in legal land. I have my own MMJ ( which I sneak in the bathroom of my parents house!) Good lord I'm 66 and still sneaking weed. Anyway.... my dad is slightly demented with aphasia..he cant hear me and I cant understand him..and I cant even imagine dad high AND trying to talk to me!
