When Todd Mitchem’s mother was diagnosed with cancer a second time, her doctor told her that she had only six months remaining to put her affairs in order.
“That was a terrifying moment,” Mitchem recalled. “Her doctor was so convinced of her prognosis that we began to accept the inevitable. Saying goodbye to my mother was going to be the hardest thing I could imagine doing.”
At the time Mitchem’s mother’s doctor asked that she head to Pennsylvania to visit a wellness clinic and to undergo limited radiation. This visit could potentially extend her life as much as another month.
During this time Mitchem’s mother found out about the many properties of marijuana, but in her state the plant was still illegal. Mitchem’s mother began growing pot plants in her house and baking them into muffins with the hope that this self-treatment would extend her life a few extra and precious months.
That was six years ago and she is still alive today.
Todd Mitchem of Todd Mitchem Cannabis Consulting and CannaSearch LLC is on a mission to help doctors understand that they must learn about the benefits of cannabis in the body as a wellness medicine. “Doctors in many states now have a powerful medicine available to their patients if they will simply take the time to learn about cannabis,” he said.
