My name is Dean and my new nickname is name is the Weed Nurse.  I became a Cannabis Nurse after I got hurt on the job -I was a paramedic/pre-hospital Nurse for over 30 years.  I was a first responder at 911 on the day of attack through to next day.  I worked in Europe (Was born in England) for 10 years teaching and developing Cardiac Arrest Programs in hospitals and came back to USA in 2015.  I stopped drinking on my own accord in 2018 and same with pain killers I was taking for back issues.  In 2019, I got seriously injured at work and needed multiple back surgeries and now am fused from L2 to S1.  Because of this—they put me out on disability.  I decided that i wanted to do more holistic approach to my healthcare and did the studying and now help others working with cannabis to better ones health.  Now want to go further and learn even more!
