  1. 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:

  5. 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.

  9. 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.

  13. @thetyee This wording is concerning because covid never ended. Our governments just opted to go cognitive dissonance route/eugenics style of public health failures instead. We are still seeing too many covid & long covid patients in health care. I work in health care. Our government is lying to the public & I wish more media wasn't so willing to aid/abet these public health failures.

    Young people are struggling: in my engagement with tweens and teens, both as a studio teacher and through my own kids’ networks, the proportion of kids experiencing mostly ignored disability or now carrying diagnoses like POTS, PNES, and other amorphous disabilities is alarmingly high.

  20. My hubs and I were just talking about vaccines. Nova Vax is updated now. It's supposed to have fewer side effects. My health care friends keep telling me that if you've got the vaccines you should be fine with covid. Are they ever wrong. Vaccines are reducing hospitalizations but they aren't stopping #LongCovidisReal.

  24. Got back yesterday from Sydney with the family. Things got so tense in the middle that I ended up spending a few days with friends. It was either that or change my flight and come home early, which very nearly happened. Thankfully, it seemed to act as a circuit breaker and things were unbelievably better when I got back to my parents’ place after a few days away. We really need more understanding around #LongCovid

    I will be forever thankful to the friends who offered for me to stay with them, both for taking such great care of me and being wonderful friends, and for potentially saving my relationship with my mother as I don’t know that there’s much coming back from “I’m too unwell to be here with you constantly pushing me so I’m going home early”, especially considering she’s a retired nurse.

    I’m also thankful to the wonderful Australian long Covid community on FB who were there for me when I was totally falling apart and encouraged me to get out of there before I had a serious crash and was stuck with family that didn’t get it, physically unable to get myself home. #LongCovidIsReal

  28. @KiwiNikki This is the conversation we need to have, the statistics we need to keep! I caught COVID in early Feb 2022. Still dealing with cognitive issues on a daily basis. People who don’t work may not notice the problems as much as those of us who do. #LongCovid #LongCovidIsReal
