*Actress Regina Hall dropped by “Jimmy Kimmel Live” on Monday to promote her new movie “Little” but the conversation quickly turned to the time she feared her mother was having a stroke after she took too much CBD oil for arthritis pain.
As reported by SandraRose, Hall said she had been giving her dog medical marijuana to help with illness-related pains due to old age. When Zeus passed, she couldn’t toss the stash in the trash, so she held on to it until it was time to put the oil to good use when her mother came to visit.
“The good stuff, you don’t want to throw it away. I was sad, I couldn’t sleep,” she told Kimmel about mourning the loss of her beloved pet. “My mother came to visit me because it was traumatic for me. She has arthritis, so I gave her a little and I took a little,” she explained.

“It’s not an edible, it’s an oil – it is in a tube,” Hall said. “It’s the consistency of like honey or tar. And you put a little bit on a cracker, a cookie. This is to help heal.”
But when her mother took too much oil, Hall said, ‘Mommy, that’s too much,’ and her quote was, ‘That little dab you give me, barely does enough!'”
Later on, Hall noticed her mother was unable to move her mouth.
“I said, ‘Mommy are you having a stroke? And she said, ‘I think so.'”
“I called the ambulance. We went to the hospital, she had on my Think Like a Man Too robe. We were panicked.”
An MRI scan and other tests confirmed her mother was okay and not in any medical danger.
However, the doctor became suspicious of Hall’s behavior when he overheard her whispering on the phone with a friend about the “stuff” she and her mother had taken.
“(The doctor) was not amused. He said, ‘Why are you whispering?’ And my girlfriend was still on the phone and she goes, ‘Yeah, you’ve been whispering all night.’ I didn’t know (I was whispering!)” Regina said.
