Her thoughts scared her and prompted her into seeking out something she hadn’t tried before. She turned to Cannabis.

Sherri became a medical Cannabis patient in 2014 and started administering Cannabis to treat her symptoms and try to wean off of the medications that were causing her side effects. She vaporized Cannabis, took tinctures, capsules and edibles. Her symptoms were improving to the point where she realized “wow, this works!” Through her own trial and error, Sherri was able to wean off of all her IBD medications within 6 months. Sherri had effectively bridged the gap from what she was not getting with her conventional treatment and the holistic therapies that she was utilizing to help herself. Her condition had greatly improved, and she felt connected to her community again.

The Green Nurse Group is Born

Because of everything she had been through, Sherri saw a great need in her community and beyond. Another gap that needed to be bridged. This time for other people. She had to learn how to medicate with Cannabis on her own, without anyone to guide her or help her make informed decisions. It took her a very long time to find what worked for her. Navigating the medical Cannabis community can be challenging, and there can be a steep learning curve that patients have to overcome in order to relieve symptoms consistently, effectively, and in a way that doesn’t impair them. Sherri had to learn all of this on her own and felt that Cannabis patients shouldn’t have to, especially in the face of debilitating disease which can be overwhelming enough. She founded the GreenNurse™ Group, an action oriented, non-profit organization of dedicated professionals and nurses who seek to relieve suffering via the safe use of medical Cannabis and other natural, holistic therapies. The GreenNurse™ Group utilizes a medical-based, patient-first approach. Through their services, they strive to bring the same excellence of trusted, quality nursing care to the medical Cannabis industry.
