Good Morning! As you know Dabbin Dad was started as a blog for me to have an outlet as a Veteran and Cannabis patient, describing and advocating for cannabis use to treat PTSD. I'm glad to be able to meet, learn and discuss other conditions patients are having and how cannabis is helping them. Honestly, this is the most satisfying part of all of this! We would all agree … [Read more...] about Grow for Vets!

Bill to Eliminate Veteran State Fees for MMP
A good friend passed onto me a great piece of knowledge the other day about some new legislation pending in Hartford, which could eliminate the cost of state fees associated with the CT Medical Marijuana Program for veterans. The bill will require the Commissioner of Consumer Protection to waive the registration and administration fees for veterans registered as qualifying … [Read more...] about Bill to Eliminate Veteran State Fees for MMP
Danksgiving Weekend
Good morning world! I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving/Danksgiving weekend. I decided to keep with the holiday spirit and spend the weekend with my loving family and friends. I truly felt blessed to have so many loved ones around. Thanksgiving was a hustle, mainly for my wife who not only hosted Thanksgiving, but also a dinner party last night for some great … [Read more...] about Danksgiving Weekend
VA Response to Veterans with PTSD
I came across this interesting page on the VA.gov site. This is the official response to Veterans with PTSD who treat with cannabis. It really shows how the Veteran Affairs truly is unwilling to investigate the truths about cannabis. To the Veteran Affairs, we are only drug addicts, but to me... I see more than 40,000 dedicated veterans, who are not ashamed to admit they … [Read more...] about VA Response to Veterans with PTSD
Veteran Suicide in Philly
I really hate reading about suicide, regardless of the situation, but to hear a Veteran decided to make a life-ending decision at the Veteran Affairs Hospital in Philadelphia on Thursday is heart breaking to me. I can relate, I had some dark times. It's easy to say it gets better, but it doesn't feel like that when you're rock bottom. If anyone every wants to talk, I'm … [Read more...] about Veteran Suicide in Philly
Today was a good day!
Today started off a little stressful, but after some medication time I was able to focus on what needed to get done today. It was a long day, none the less, but for atleast now the hustle is over. I'm looking forward to sparking this bowl of Theraplant Balinica. It's a indica. I hope with this, a nice dab of Theraplant TathracetX wax (also an indica), and a medicated brownie … [Read more...] about Today was a good day!
Tuesday Safety Session!
Just got back from an awesome safety session at a buddies house. Safety in numbers! I really needed this today and some friends I've met through Dabbin Dad came through. I met with the CtMedical MarijuanaCritic for the first time and he's a great dude. I was introduced to some CBD strains that I normally do not dab on and man do I feel relaxed, great tasting dabs. He is … [Read more...] about Tuesday Safety Session!
Sunday morning!
It's been a while since I had a rambling. My kids are sick, poor little girls. They have been home all week with different ailments, and all my wife and I can hope is that we don't catch anything. It's been a tough week to say the least, but thankfully my girls are starting to show improvement. With my work schedule, I was able to spend most of the week at home. But being … [Read more...] about Sunday morning!
Moment Alone
Decided to sit outside and enjoy the sun today. The two dabs I just took have me feeling lifted and motivated to do something. My kids are off to school and I'm waiting for my wife to come back home. Fridays are the only day of the week that I get to spend time with my wife. I love her to death, she's always been my light when I've been my darkest. She was in an unfortunate … [Read more...] about Moment Alone
