Peter Thurley is Principal and Chief Writing Officer at Peter Thurley Communications and Consulting Services. In October 2015, after the removal of a 25lb tumour and the repair of burst bowels, Peter turned to cannabis to help with pain relief, nausea control and appetite stimulation. As a result, Peter has become an “accidental advocate” for medical patients, and serves as a member of the Patient Advisory Board at Canadians for Fair Access to Medical Marijuana. He lives with his wife in Kitchener, ON.
