Actress-comedian Whoopi Goldberg has turned weed columnist which she claims has helped her in her glaucoma.
The 58-year-old 'View' co-host wrote the column in Denver Post's marijuana-focused website Cannabist.Com, reported the Wrap.
"The vape pen has changed my life. No, I'm not exaggerating. In fact, her name is Sippy. Yes, she's a she," Goldberg wrote, saying the electronic marijuana device, gifted to her by daughter, has been a huge improvement.
"These glaucoma-induced headaches come on like freight trains - like, BOOM, my head starts hurting, my eyes start bugging, my whole body starts to tense up. But then I find her, and it relaxes everything and calms everything. It helps my head stop hurting, and with glaucoma your eyes ache, and she takes the ache out. It's wonderful," she wrote.
Goldberg, however, explained that she has never been high when she is on TV.
"It helps that I know when to do it. I have a day job where I need to be clear. But if I need it after the show, she's there. And if I don't feel any pain, she stays in my purse.
