I’m the Pot Head Veteran My story with cannabis begins with serving in the Air Force, and the Utah Army National Guard –– I’m a cancer survivor, I suffer from PTSD, as well as chronic pain, and joint damage which sometimes leaves me debilitated and unable to live life the way I want to. I recently got my Medical Cannabis card here in Utah, and I was told by a few friends that I should blog about my experiences. So that brings us all to The Pot Head Veteran. I hope you enjoy my journey, my sarcasm and sometimes dark humor, that’s all part of who I am now, trauma, smiles, scars and all!

Controlled by my Disability, Going to the State Convention… and being Accosted by a mouth breathing Cop over a simple ADA accommodation request.
Today was the Utah Democratic State Convention, here’s the funny thing about that –– I’ve been an accidental delegate for the last 6 years. I also somehow unintentionally found myself to be the Salt Lake County Veterans Caucus Chair, as well as State Veterans Co-Chair –– Now I say this in jest and take my job seriously and I’m honored to serve, but it’s funny how when it comes to these certain responsibilities they found their way to me without ever being part of MY plan.
I’ll be honest with you, I’ve been dreading this day for weeks, I loathe these large gatherings — when I go to them, my Post Traumatic Stress controls me, instead of the other way around.
I recognize that part of the reason why it’s been so difficult for me — Post COVID, this was the first really big event I’ve attended since my Service Dog Molly passed away shortly before covid ended the world.
