    #BelfastME - Kindling Collective Rest and Recharge Fall

    October 10, 2026

    "About this trip:

    Rest and Recharge is an event for folks who take part in #CommunityCare work who are looking for rest and connection.

    KC is committed to creating programming that is responsive to our community. We’ve heard from folks who are deep in local community care work that they are exhausted, overwhelmed and struggle to find time to rest. In collaboration with #MCHT , we put together two day events inviting organizers to be with the land and seek rest/play. Join us for the second of these events on October 10th in the Belfast area (specific location provided after registration). #DanielleArroyo and #DaeneKugel will hold this space and offer a guided #NatureWalk and optional #crafting projects. Music and vibes courtesy of Kafari. Lunch will be provided.

    Who is a community care worker?

    Someone who spends time doing work (for pay or not) that supports the people in our community who need it most. This includes but is not limited to:
    - #MutualAid / food delivery / #cooking & shopping for folks / #farming & #FoodSovereignty
    - #StreetMedicine
    - #Doula / #DeathDoula / #GriefWorker
    - #Policy / #advocacy work / #LegalSupport
    #CommunityDefense / #documenting law enforcement
    - #SocialWork / #CaseManagement
    - Community based health care
    - #Elders / #KnowledgeHolders / #storytellers "

    This event is for Queer / BIPOC participants only!

    "Queer events are designed as an affinity spaces for queer and trans people of all racial identities. If you think you might be queer or trans, you are queer enough. While we love our allies and advocates, if you’re not queer, don’t come to these events.

    BIPOC events are for Black, Indigenous, and people of color of all genders and sexualities. If you’re not BIPOC, do not attend these events!"

  3. Accompanied my Mom to doctor's appointment this morning. This was mainly for getting another prescription for her recurring gout issue. She got a physical checkup too. Her doctor & his MOA were masked up. None of the other medical clinic staff & no other patients were masked.

    Location of masking report: Burnside Medical Clinic - office in lower part of building - there's a different office with same name on main level.

  4. 6.7: Restorative Justice & Reconciliation With Rev Nora Jacob

    Join us for a conversation with Rev. Nora Jacob on a better way to dispense justice than to subject offenders to a strictly brutal prison experience. A way that, by recognizing that hurt people hurt people, aims to empower, not just victims, but also offenders, to heal. This isn’t just showing mercy to incarcerated people, it significantly lowers the chances that they’ll end up back in prison after their release. That's a win for us all.

    Finally got dr permission for IV magnesium. I don’t absorb it any other way so I am extremely deficient in it and ill. Can provide materials.

    Problem is that I can’t find anyone to come out here in suburbia for less than $600 (check cost of wellness clinics in Melbourne. Expensive or don’t do at all. )

    If you are a #nurse #phlebotomist #hcw or have any experience running a drip, please reply/DM. I don’t care if you learned it DIY as long as you know what you’re doing.

    This treatment changes my life from bedridden to 60% of normal in a few months! That’s mildly ill in comparison.
    It helps every symptom I have.
    Hospitals only give it for preeclampsia. Hospital in the Home is the same. Private nurse services same.
    It’s so basically going through proper channels doesn’t help.

    It’s not illegal to have someone qualified come out and do it as long as doc has signed off on it which is why wellness clinics can do it. But medical system won’t. I know it doesn’t make sense but it’s Australia 2024. If you don’t have formal qualifications we can figure it out.

    I’ve even asked the government for help. Nothing.

    Was informed even private insurance wouldn’t help with this (I don’t have it ofc but this is an example of how hard and stupid this is.)

    P-l-e-a-s-e post to other platforms. I have no team to help promote me I barely have any energy for basics . I have no energy to advertise. If you can help an team also let me know.

    Please give me some quality of life.

    I’m in #Melbourne #Australia.
    If you’re willing to drive a distance will compensate for petrol and pay what you think is fair for your time.

    TLDR: Need nurse or any qualified healthcare worker to come to my place to give magnesium IV.
    Even consider unqualified if you know what you’re doing.
