I just got a call from a gastroenterologist office. Mom is booked for follow up endoscopy on April 8th at Saanich Peninsula Hospital. I requested that staff who will be dealing with us at Mom's appointment to be masked up. The MOA said that will be respected. I said - Thanks, because I already lost one parent to covid & not OK losing another when it can be prevented if people masked up more. She then said that she understood because her Dad got really sick "when covid was around". I stopped her before she could finish & said - #Covid never stopped & people are still dying & becoming disabled for life from it. She didn't know how to respond for a moment - awkward pause - before agreeing, yeah - it never stopped 🙄

Anyways - it's booked & they better be masked up when we get there. 😷

Mom is seeing this doctor:

FYI - almost anytime I go out in general public wearing face masks I get flurries of both - Why the hell are you still masking? and Where can I get your gaiter/face covering?
I always mask up. This isn’t new. This isn’t changing when almost no one else masks up & has decided to normalize #Covid.
People with disabilities are lockdowned from societal understanding because people who stopped masking up -> lack empathy & don't believe they'll ever be as disabled or more disabled. It's foolhardy, at best.

I'm at VGH for first 3 hours of work & can't wait to leave. I dislike work days that involve being in any #hospital because of all the unmasked plague spreaders in that #medical workplace environment.

Compliments from unmasked folks, praising me for being cautious & taking excellent care for my Mom aren't considered compliments to me. I consider them as passive aggressive guilt-ridden confessions from unmasked folks, who aren't taking good care of themselves nor anyone in their own family.

#ThrowbackThursday 2022.
I miss Dad very much 😢 ❤️ He's been gone for over 2 years now.
I remember this day well. It was an excellent family bonding day. We had a nice dinner after a short walk together. 3 months after this photo was taken, Dad had to go to ER for a leg muscles issue. He was infected with covid by unmasked hospital staff. It happened shortly after our eugenics government removed public masking mandates. Dad ended up dying from covid related cardiac arrest, the following Summer.

I have never forgiven the #BCgovernment or #unmasked #hospital staff for killing my Dad. We had him fully protected with home #caregiving for years. It took less than 2 days in hospital for him to get #covid.

Please #WearAMask. Please don't let my Dad & others who died from getting covid from unmasked people, to be forgotten. It could be you or your family members, next. Covid doesn't care if you believe in it or not - it will end up wrecking your life, one way or another.

Not a single political party in BC cares about #CovidSafety. All of them have opted to go along with #eugenics #PublicHealth policies. Further marginalizing people like me, my Mom, every disabled person, every elderly person, every child & every cautious citizen who is still trying to prevent getting sick from #covid & other #AirborneIllnesses. We have been abandoned by every single politician in BC & federally too. This is government folks doing passive #dehumanization of us. Our lives matter even if they #dehumanize us by normalizing public health eugenics.

There's a popular citizen journalist, Brandon Buckingham, with fundraising video on YouTube. He's in hospital hooked up to a bunch of stuff & has pneumonia & other sicknesses. He has been unmasked & traveling all over the world for awhile. I posted on his hospital vid good luck & I hope he starts #MaskingUp after recovery. I mentioned that I work in health care & that covid, especially multiple infections, tends to trigger pneumonia, organ failures, neuro damage, latent TB activation & more.

@emilylowan Where does #GreenParty / #BCGreens stand on government #PublicHealth failures with #covid ? #PeopleWithDisabilities feel abandoned by every political party on this #eugenics issue. We are voters too.
