ME-as I go through this zany, marvelous, difficult experience called: "LIFE"!

s I navigate through the mazes in the Healthcare System, I am totally appalled by the high numbers of people who see the sick, people who are older and other people in unfortunate circumstances as disposable.  I am facing, and have been for some time, the wrong doings of the Healthcare System. I notice the lies that are told about me, about unfortunate others who are 1st robbed of their credibility, then their dignity, then their purpose and eventually they are robbed of their humanity. I see how evil dressed in the license of a nurse, a doctor, a medical professional and discover how they are allowed to continue their "Reign of Terror" because "my word means nothing!"  I have gone to the Dept of Public Health, the Dept of Elder Affairs and many more more depts, agencies, law firms and lawyers all hoping someone would listen to me, talk with me, see me and study the proof I have in files. I have been praying, diligently and constantly! I pray a lot and now, at ...

Dear Friends, Family, Church Family, Helpers + Friends and People I have yet to meet, I pray all of you will have a sacred, holy, joyous, jovial and loving Christmas! It’s the time of love, forgiveness, letting go and letting God! It’s the season of miracles and joy! For me, it has been a difficult, challenging and frightening year! I have been sick and at times, I have required immediate emergency care followed by hospital admissions on the medical units at the hospital. The last, most recent hospital inpatient encounter was in November, 2025. I had been battling  an aggressive pneumonia that required 2 different antibiotics, IV antibiotics and also an antibiotic in pill form. My oxygen saturations were dipping dangerously low and I was already in Respiratory Failure . I was in the hospital for about a week which comes to approximately 2 months that I have been home. I am still working on recovery. I have been on a higher liter of supplemental oxygen + I am actively in the ar...

Yesterday, Today & Tomorrow  Good Morning Family & Friends!  Did you ever have one of those days? Yesterday seemed like a bad day for me and for many of us.  It was also a completely crazy day!  Nothing, "nothing" went right! Absolutely nothing turned out the way it should have! People were on edge. Tempers were short. Misinformation was communicated to people who had little choice but to "go with it!"  People said words to other people that they should have never said. People hurt people! Words became Weapons! My dear friends, yesterday was the past! Today is a brand new day, a day of new opportunities. Today is a day to forgive, a day to give graciously accept apologies. Today is day to make things right again! It's time to let go of that heavy baggage which has been weighing us down for so, very long! Time to "Let It Go!" Today I am going meet others with my finest smiles! Laughter will freely spring out of me.0 My words will be sweet and...

  My name is Evelyn This is my Story! This is my Truth! I had the grave misfortune of needing emergency care and eventually being hospitalized for a life-threatening bacterial infection! I also had Sepsis! This bacterial infection had been relentlessly and viciously attacking my body. Upon arriving to the Emergency Room, I was placed onto a gurney with high fevers of 103 and rising still and extremely high blood pressure with a high and rapid heart rate. Before the Emergency Room, while still at home, my blood pressure and heart rate were dangerously high and alarming. On a hot and humid summer day, I was freezing! Despite multiple layers of shirts, sweaters, pants and jackets with a huge pile of blankets covering me, I was still freezing cold and with a strange inability to get and feel warm. Knowing my body well + reliving previous experiences of sicknesses and pneumonias, I realized that time was was of the essence and that I needed to get to the hospital immediately! The ambula...

Dear Friends, Family and Church Family, I pray all of you are well, safe, healthy, happy and loved!  Me, I have been experiencing brutal breathing episodes, especially these past few weeks.  Breathing is automatic! When a person experience difficulties breathing, it's life threatening and scary! With breathing being automatic to most humans, when I, or anyone who endures episodes when I, or them are struggling to breathe, it's life threatening and beyond frightening! During the early hours of this morning (Tuesday- Wednesday), I awoke not being able to breathe or catch my breath. I struggled trying to breathe in what seemed like days. I know it was not days but, minutes, long, long moments, much longer than I, or anyone could have realized. I remember as I feebly was attempting to call 911, the night staff entered my apt.  This knowledgeable, kind person gave me the medications I needed while doing what he could to¹ place me at ease and calmer. The breathing (or lack of ...

As a person I need what you already have which is to treat me which means to: Dignity  Respect  Honesty Integrity I am a person first! I do need help "Yes"! I do not need nor do I want my credibility to be continually at question! I do not want healthcare professionals or anyone else to rob me of my independence! I want to do all I am capable of doing!
