Harmon said that her child was in constant pain and the medications prescribed to her was doing more harm than good.

One day Harmon saw a documentary about medical marijuana and how it helped people who suffered from pain.

Harmon and her family went to Colorado to see how her daughter would react to the ointment. Since then, Harmon decided to team up with the Texas for Responsible Marijuana Policy.
