Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It appears that she is suffering with the pulmonary embolism, and pain due to that, You want to give her marijuana in food for pain relief. It may not help her for relief.
In such a case of embolism you should be care full of the treatment, to be given. If the drugs are late to come , you consult her doctor, or the pharmacy for the alternative drugs.
Let her take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts,and protein rich foods to have stamina to bear the pain.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
