Anything to Help a Friend

A good friend has had a bum knee for a number of years.  Slowly doing downhill.  The past few months she has been virtually immobile.  Finally she was told by her doctors that knee replacement surgery is the only hope.

Problem is: in these quarantine times and with the hospital situation the way it is, it will be late September or early October before she can get scheduled for the procedure.  5-6 more months of misery and limited mobility.

With nothing for the pain except the Tylenol/Alleve route, which basically doesn't help at all at this  point.

She knows that we use CBD,  and she tried some weird cbd capsules that aren't helping, so she called yesterday to see if we could suggest anything.

So today for Mother's Day we took her a care package of some Salve, Oil and Pain Patch.  Don't know if it will help her knee or not -- sounds as if  it is in terrible shape -- but our hope is that she will at least get some measure of relief to help her make it to surgery!

Thankful that we might be of help to a suffering friend:  isn't that why we do what we do?

Grateful for Zogena!

Will let you know what I hear from her.

Have a blessed day and stay safe!

And I've found that a double dose of my Zogena oil taken immediately prior to putting on that cursed mask makes my trips to the grocery store go much better!
