Dan received severe head and physical injures during a traffic stop incident while on patrol, which forced him to take an early retirement. He gets great medical benefit from using cannabis. It helps control his severe headaches, insomnia, mood swings, nausea and pain; and has enabled him to get off of debilitating, prescription drugs.
