![]() The CHA is committed to championing the cause and exchange of information around clinical cannabis and industrial hemp. Renee H Petro is one of the founders of CannaMom's and her young son Branden suffers from what's called Febrile infection-related epilepsy syndrome (FIRES). Renee and I went to the same High School on Long Island, NY, Commack High School and were recently reintroduced via Facebook by a mutual friend. I was excited to see a fellow cannabis activist and advocate, but deeply dismayed to find out the harsh reality over her son Branden's medical condition. Renee has been a valuable source of information to me over the last few weeks being a central information source for relevant articles and her charity the CannaMom's has been making big strides publicly. On May 27th, 2014 the CannaMoms, Renee H Petro, Moriah Barnhart, and Jacel Delgadillo were making a statement on in the local news in support of their beliefs in cannabis legalization. The goal was simple, get their children the medical treatment they should be entitled too. While many people are still in the dark about the powerful endocannabinoid system and the unmatched healing powers of certain cannabinoids in the human body, this group of strong women has banded together to educate and lead the charge toward liberation.
