Montel speaks with Jennifer Conforti on this episode of Let’s be Blunt. Jennifer thought she would never have children, and then was blessed with a surprise pregnancy at age 42. Shortly after the birth of their beautiful baby girl, they learned she had a congenital brain defect and she was later given a secondary diagnosis of severe autism. When her behavior developed into self harm, no doctors or therapists had the answers that would help their child. They tried thirty different pharmaceuticals and none of them worked. That’s when they learned about medical cannabis, and everything changed.
