From an old soldier, Thank you.
Gypsy,
I am writing you to thank you so very much for your seeds. On August 5,2003 while serving with the 101st Airborne division in Mosul, Iraq I was shot 2x at point blank range in my head.... luckily I was wearing my protective kevlar helmet. My helmet barely stopped the bullets. I received an extremely bad concussion from the double impact. I spent the next few weeks in a hospital in Germany. I was then flown home and Medically discharged from the Army. I then began a long fight of plaguing health problems that I am still fighting today, such as insomnia, loss of appetite, dizziness and worse of all extreme migraine headaches. The meds that the doctors have me on are very harsh on my body and can be very addicting. A friend of mine then suggested that I should try medical marijuana. I did some research on the subject and after a long talk with my wife we decided that we would give it a try. I ordered some Nirvana white Rhino seeds from you and began growing them. My life today is much better than 6 months ago, I now get close to 6 hours of good sleep, before i was only getting 3 hours at the most. I also am eating like a normal human. I would just like to say THANK YOU so very much. I am very new to this whole thing, but I am living proof that medical marijuana works. I am not sure if the strain that I got is the best medical grade. So, if you can suggest a better medical strain it would be much appreciated. Once again THANK YOU VERY MUCH AND GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.

Hey Mike! --
 First, and formost, I would like to thank YOU for your service and sacrifice!!! Secondly, welcome to ICMag, the friendliest Cannabis Site on the web! {IMHO} There are many here abouts that, I am sure, will be able to make suggestions on strains that will best assist with your conditions. I wish I could make some recomendations, but being relatively new myself, I lack the experience... In a day or so, if you are not getting responses to this thread, I'd suggest you kick up a new one, with a title along the lines of, "Strain recommendation, please" down in the "Medicinal Marijuana" forum, or somelace. Explain your conditions again, and ask for suggestions... Once again, welcome to ICMag! -BuzzBob

Green lantern,
Ty for the offer, the first claim i filled with the V.A. got awarded at 50%, but I can't get a decent job cause im getting 3 or more migranes a day, so i filled for a 2nd claim, along with a claim for PTSD. Everyone, Thanks for the Emails with the medical strain recomendations, they all seem like real fine ones. Little out of my price range at the moment, Money has been real tight since ive gotten off Active Duty. I got mouths to feed around here, so my $10 seeds are going to have to due for now. Ive been busy reading forum posts and seem to be learning some real useful stuff. My wife has been laughing at me cause I got about 6 pages of notes ive been taking, lol. Im also going to school on my Montgomery GI Bill, im thinking about taking some horticulture classes when register for spring semester classes. Well, I got to get the little ones Ready for bed. Thanks for all the help. Peace....

Gday delta, i have found heavy indicas to help my ptsd, but have also found a mix of strains work also, its all a mater of sample testing small amounts of each. As you learn to grow more you will sample more and find which is best for you...
I hear bogs lifesaver is a good med strain. Anything with knock out indicas in it is a goos start. Makles you hungry, induces sleep etc...best of luck, im glad mj can help you deal with the efects of war.

deltamike21,
the reason i am responding to this is because i believe you are a man who feels strongly about fighting for what you believe in. i would like top ask you what your opinion on medical marijuana was prior to this experience. the reason i ask is that i believe you could do a world of good for our movement. i strongly urge you to contact the marijuana policy project in washington d.c. you have made a great sacrifice for your country and should not be treated like a criminal simply because you choose to use marijuana as medicine. unfortunately, the federal govt does not see it this way. even though you risked your life and suffered greatly as a result they would just as soon see you in prison. your story would be of great help in swaying public opinion on this issue. you can contact mpp via thier website www.mpp.org or you can call 202-462-5747 you may want to speak with alison green, membership director at ext. 129 i hope you will consider getting active in this movement we need more people like you among us peace beans

THANK YOU "The prestige of government has undoubtedly been lowered considerably by the prohibition law. For nothing is more destructive of respect for the government and the law of the land than passing laws which cannot be enforced. It is an open secret that the dangerous increase of crime in this country is closely connected with this." Albert Einstein, "My First Impression of the U.S.A.", 1921 "Prohibition will work great injury to the cause of temperance. It is a species of intemperance within itself, for it goes beyond the bounds of reason in that it attempts to control a man's appetite by legislation, and makes a crime out of things that are not crimes. A Prohibition law strikes a blow at the very principles upon which our government was founded." Abraham Lincoln, U.S. President. 18 Dec. 1840 PLEASE don't PM me for seeds or cuts,.. Thank you
