Prop 2

How do I feel about Prop 2?
Last night, I took one of my boys to a store in Kaysville.
I had talked to my soul sister, Miss Birdie, about it prior.
I have done my research.
A lot of research.
Too much research.

My boy has struggled greatly with anxiety and depression.
He also struggles mightily with headaches that are debilitating. 
He throws up. 
He can't sleep.
He has days where he can't go to school.
No matter how hard all of us try.
He has been in counseling, with multiple counselors.
He has been on various different kinds of prescription medication.
We have tried everything I know to try.

Now we are trying CBD.
He has drops that he puts under his tongue morning and night.
He also has a sucker that he can put in his mouth if he starts to get a terrible headache while at school or work.

I am a mother of children who have had 29 operations.
I am a mother of children who have seen the worst in people, who are survivors of abuse.
I am a mother of children who have seen their brother on hospice.
I am a mother of children who have had to grow up much quicker than many.
I am a mother who will fight for my children's well-being until my dying moments.

My child is on CBD.
I am telling you this for this reason:
Prop 2 is important.
There are people who have tried everything else.
Nothing else works for some people.
As a mother, I need options.
I need viable options for my children and their well-being.

My child is on CBD.
If you have a problem with this, please keep it to yourself.
In particular, don't say a word to him.
Or... Mama Bear might just come out.
I say that nicely... kind of.

My child is on CBD.
I will be voting YES on Prop 2.
I hope that you will do your research and made an educated decision on it as well.

My child is on CBD.
I love my child.
