The Q&A: Humboldt Episode 23: Kelly Bruce from CannaMommy on the Benefits of Prenatal Cannabis use

The Quantum Alignment Podcast

In this episode we are joined by Kelly Bruce. In 2010 Kelly Bruce was raising her daughter alone living in the beautiful mountains of Breckenridge Colorado teaching children to ski for Vail Resorts. On NYE she was hit by a drunk driver and suffered injuries to her lower back and neck. These injuries would ultimately end her skiing profession, sending her on the path of pharmaceutical pain management. After a horrible out of body experience one night on Ambien; she decided there had to be a better way to manage the pain and still be able to have the confidence to be an effective parent. She was not only able to completely manage pain to the point of not even needing Advil, but she was able to come off of other medications for medical conditions such as ADD and Major Depressive Disorder. She was amazed at how versatile the plant was in alleviating ailments. She became quite outspoken about the benefits; advocating for the various ways to use it. In 2012 someone reported her medical use to Child Protective Services. Kelly openly and willingly admitted she was a medical patient and using cannabis to treat medical conditions. She believed her choice with the direction and care of her doctors were better than using the prescription drugs. The state disagreed with her choice to consume a schedule 1 illicit drug, even while under her legal right with the state, and Kelly was founded of her charges. She fought. Hard; appealing the court's ruling. After a 2 year probation, all charges were dropped. This experience is what sparked a fire inside Kelly that has grown into CannaMommy.org ​
