Only One In The Room

Scott Talks to Marie Myung Ok Lee


Listen Later

Imagine having a nine-year-old son who was so violent that you were afraid of him. Acclaimed Korean American writer and author Marie Myung-Ok Lee accepted the diagnosis of autism the doctors gave her son but knew that there was something else going on, something that defied traditional treatment plans and medication. So what would you do if Cannabis was the only thing that seemed to offer your son the relief he needed for his pain? Would you be too afraid to administer it because of what people might say? Or would you give the middle finger to the world and provide your son with the only treatment that really worked?
