I just came across your email. I did not know who was going to represent Randy until now. I suspect it is a bit late for us to get together. A lawyer told me that it was good that the Trustee was involved because you the lawyer would be able to help me. I hope so.
Very briefly I was able to have Don Morrison advise me on Friday. At least I hope nothing goes wrong. He hasn't had much time to go over the information so I do not know if he will be asking for a further adjournment or not.
I hope you do not consent to the VCH's new proposed order that no agents (friends) of mine attend at GPC. This is a wrong step. The friends I ask to go and see Randy three of them are retired RNs so they can tell me his state of health. Each time I talk to Sam the social worker; it is always don't worry he is okay. Nothing out of the ordinary.
From Wednesday I was told that Randy was unresponsive and could barely lift his head off the pillow. I got a phone call from Pierre that said Randy was dying and he won't last the night. At that time I was with Mr. Morrison and we went by taxi to see Randy.
Later I spoke to Pierre and he said Randy was in his bed at the time he called me. This was at 12:30 so the nurses propped him up to look reasonable. Pierre said that Randy was not sleeping; he was in a comma.
Within an hour when I got home there was an email saying that Randy was sent to VGH for observation. He had septis. Septis is the leading cause of death in the US in ICUs and Randy was sent to a ICU stepdown unit. I went there and saw him and he was out-of-it but I noticed he had a very large bedsore/ucler which was black on his heel. You get these wounds if you do not move, the blood stops circulating and amputation could happen. GPC puts him in a wheelchair and he sits in its for nine hours at a time.
At VGH at the same time Security came waiving the Trespass letter and I was asked to leave. I waited on the sidewalk for five hours at Emergency until a friend came out and said that Randy was starting to look okay. Later I was told that he is in a stepdown ward on the 10th floor. His doctor Dr. Mackie who I phoned would not allow me to see Randy "as he did not known me" and had to go by the Trespass Order but he told me Randy is okay for at least the weekend. They were watching Randy very carefully.
He said that Randy had sepsis pneumonia.
Randy is close to death and I can't be with him.
Just about everything in the Assessment Report is not true. For close to two years I took Randy home for the afternoon and yet Calder said I would take him home without authoritization. Calder is so used to writing confidential reports that he doesn't do proper research because they never go anywhere to be challenged. A star chamber is what VCH has become.
The incident of October 21/22, 2013 was caused by GPC and I did was act in self-defence. I wanted the police to charge those who assaulted and imprisoned Randy but they refused. The LPN Stephanie said that Randy was choking and his face was red created this lie later. In Randy's condition he would never have a red face something to do with his trach and breathing and I had just suctioned him five minutes earlier. He doesn't get enough blood into his face, he always looks pale. But then Stephanie is a LPN won't know that.
I protect Randy like a mother bear protects her cubs. It is a natural instinct and I should not be punished for it and Randy being punished which is bizarre. He is going to die soon; even I know that.
Up until January 29 2013 Randy had a private room which was rather isolated so I had very little contact with staff and then on the 29th they moved him to the open ward which forced the issue of my removal so I could not see Randy because the staff, visitors and residents were afraid of me.
None of these groups are afraid of me. When I first got banned I asked over a year those on Randy's team about the banning and none of them said they even knew about the banning. I asked residents and visitors and none of them were aware of my banning.
If Mr. Morrison got in touch with you yet, I can't send his contact information as he never gave it to me on Friday so I wait. I have a meeting with him at 10:00 am on Monday at the RayCam community centre. My cell phone is 778-689-2276.
Is it possible that a nurse can be hired so I can take Randy home and if there is a problem I can call 911.

I just got a disturbing phone call from Paul, a retired RN who went to see Randy. He told me not to freak out but Randy was looking really bad. He had to search for a nurse. It looked like he wasn't' suctioned since the morniing shift. He was enveloped in mucous. And he was coughing and coughing. Finally a nurse came by and suctioned him. Paul also said that he had a high fever and he might end up at VGH. And I am banned from seeing him even if he goes to VGH.
I am so afraid that he is going to die and I won't be there.

And what did Kevin do, NOTHING
