how to sneak marijuana to a hospital patient?

My friends grandmother is in the hospital, she just has surgery. She had to have cancer removed from her lungs. They are giving her morphine for the pain, and its not helping as much as she wanted it do. So we want to give her a marijuana brownie. But the thing is we want to know, if the doctors need to know, if its going to complicate with the morphine, or change her vitals irregularly. She is 68 years old, and is willing to try marijuana to make her able to eat, take away some pain, and make her feel better.

Hope shes doin well. I have no idea how to comment on the brownie. Maybe you should tell, maybe you shouldnt. Is bud legal where you live? If not, you might want to take that into consideration before you decide to ask the docs. But in my opinion, I would give her brownie if she was willing. Herb should be able to be used medically for everyone.

Ahh, well I'd say let the friend make the call on the brownie part. You could be the "bystander."

Well, as far as getting it to her, there would be no problem. They certainly won't search you or anything. Just wrap it up in tin foil and be nonchalant about it. Of course, the thing to worry about is how she'll react to it. You never know these things with the older folks. If she wants it though, give her a light dose at first to see how she'll take it.

sorry to hear ask the doctor if marijuana would help or complicate things, if he says it would help then see if you could give her some medicinally if the doc says no and you really want to help its her choice weather to give it to her or not.

I wouldn't until she was more stabilized. Besides that, marijuana might come up if they're screening her urine.

Yes, indeed, although I doubt it'd kill her, but she could have a bad reaction to it, especially so soon after surgery. Y'all might want to wait until she's had some time to recuperate from this a bit.

I would just bake a few brownies and let her know they have marijuana in them, and that she should maybe start out eatting half a brownie. and then just nibble on the brownie all day as she sees fit?
Good vibes out to your friends grandmother.
peace and love

lol morphine kicks marijuana ass when it comes to killing pain. If the morphine isnt helping they need to up her dose or give her a stronger pain killer, marijuana isnt gonna do jack shit.

Well, yes, but the main thing is to get her to eat a bit more, which can be a problem with cancer patients, especially after chemo/radiation therapy.

The doctor could be anti-weed so they'll possibly be against it whether it's a good idea or not. I don't think there's any MD's on the shroomery so maybe ask on a medical forum like http://www.doctorslounge.com/forums/

Does that even matter? I don't know about texas but here you can't be charged for having thc in your system unless you're behind the wheel of a car. It isn't the doctors concern unless you're being violent and they actually have a reason to contact police.

this is a big concern also, her eating. And the pain, shes already been upped to something stronger.

I'd just make some brownies. Go in with a family member like your mom or dad to make it seem legit. Just be like hey grandma, we made your some brownies to make you feel better.

Definitely start with an extremely low dose. Some people have a hypersensitivity to cannabis. Better she have absolutely no effects than too much effect. When the dose is too high, it can put minor stress on the heart, which is fine for most people, but it could easily be dangerous for someone in her condition. You can always give her more, but you can't take back what she's already eaten.

Morphine is definitely a better painkiller, but with my experience weed potentiates opiates a lot and will possibly add some more to the pain relief without upping the morphine dose.

Pot would definitely change her vitals. I don't know how the doctors would react to it, but giving her a brownie is garaunteed to change her heart rate, breathing, etc.

QFT, it def does potentiate the euphoria from opiates but I wonder if it also potentiates the analgesia or just the mental part of the high.
