Basket Case #2

I knew that VCHA and the rest made me a basket case and now this litigation is making me a double basket case.

My visions of Randy are so distracting that I cannot do much to advance what I have of my limited time on this earth.

I read an article this morning from the New York Times that doctors always know when a patient will die.  So Dr. Dunne knew Randy was going to die when he refused to lift the DNR when I asked him to.  He said he would look into it after his trip to Prince George.  Four hours later Randy was within minutes of dying.

Why didn't he remove the DNR at that time.  He did not have to wait until after his trip to Prince George.  He was there less than thirty feet from Randy's bed.  I told him to go and ask Randy and he refused.

That evening I was given new visiting restrictions.  6 to 8 pm.  On January 29 2014 I was banned 24/7 from all Vancouver Coastal Health property.  The PGT and all the other defendants were part of this banning.  

The justification must have fallen into the category that he was going to die anyways so hastening it is a bit is not a problem.  No court would fault a doctor.

Vindictiveness of the College of Physicians and Surgeons

It did not take long for the vindictiveness of the College to surface.  Seven days.  On February 19, 2019 it filed a Notice of Motion.

It sort of missed the point though.  The College never investigated why Dr. Dunne put a DNR, a DNT and a CCO Orders on Randy.  The combination of all three is a death sentence for those that want to die.  Randy did not want to die.

The College didn't even get its facts right.  I first contacted them on November 19 2013 but the College said I contacted them on December 16 2013.  They did not even know that Dr. Dunne also put a CCO Order on Randy.

The College decided to exercise its discretion to take no action because Randy was incompetent.  So when did Randy become incompetent?  Was it in 2010 or in 2011.  In December of 2012 Randy was assessed by Dr. Dunne and Mr. Doig and someone else I do not know his name and it was decided that Randy was competent and that Randy wanted Full Code. I was not there to unduly influence him to live. When I spoke to risk management in August 2013 Randy was full code. On 14 November 2013 early evening Randy was transferred from VGH to GPC. The next morning Dr. Dunne coded him to die.  When I told Dr. Dunne to take the DNR off, he mumbled that he could not take it off as it wasn't his decision to make. Then he said that Randy was incompetent.

So who would want Randy dead. Randy did not want to be dead.  I did not want him to be death. His parents did not want him to be dead.  Randy's doggies did not want him to be dead.  So, who and why.

The College did not talk to me, nor did they talk to Dr. Dunne.  So who did they talk to. Maybe it was the lawyer for the CMPA or maybe VCH's department of risk management. Or maybe they did not talk to anyone.

The College should adjourn the application and commence a new investigation.

Better yet, the attorney-general should fire the College of Physicians and Surgeons as they are not doing their job of protecting the public.   It they can't do a simple investigation, how could they protect the public. It was a simple investigation but a serious complaint.  They should have done everything possible to make sure what Dr. Dunne said was the truth.

College of Physicians and Surgeons (1)

The day after the November 18, 2013 incident happened, I phoned the College wanting them to do something. Anything.  I wanted DrXXXX  suspended until a full investigation was conducted. Dr XXXX put an unlawful DNR on my husband.  If I had not intervened and called 911, my husband would have died.

Two years later I got a decision from the College who agreed with Dr XXXX that he could not be objective because I was a bitch, but it was okay for Dr XXXX, who could not be objective, to put a DNACPR/DNT/CCO on my husband.

 My husband was not terminal.  There was no need for such an Order.

To all the defendants

I am fed up with all these court applications, etc.

You are to work with my lawyer.

All you are doing is racking up legal fees.   Fees that the taxpayer is paying.

And all I will get from you is that your client told you to do that.  And if I ask your client why did he do this, he will say his lawyer told him to do it.

You all know I am not well.  How could I be well after what I was subjected to.  Every flashback I have is of the defendants bullying me.  Or, of Randy crying. I was his wife and you had no right to divide us.

At the first CPC, the judge said to the defendants to apologize to me.  At the second CPC, the judge said talk to me.  Neither happened.

And now even with Carolanne, she apparently is missing in action.  The all-and-powerful health authority can hide someone, and it does not have to tell anyone.  And Mr. Bell told me he is not authorized to tell me.

All this over a "plush toy" I was going to give a disabled patient in 2011.  A LPN ripped the plush toy from my hand saying that the patient did not need it.  I told him that it was not his decision to make. He called security. Nothing happened to this Lowest Paid Nurse, but from thenceforth if I wanted to visit Randy, the hours were severely restricted.

And another time, I said to a RN if she had something to tell me, tell me, do not send a LPN.  And what did she do, she called security.  She also said that I was going to be banned forever.  A prediction that came true.

And then there was December 26 2013 when staff hid Randy's AMBU bag from me.  If Randy needed help with his breathing, and I could not give him extra oxygen, he would die.

And I can hear Dr. Dunne saying to me: "Audrey, that was unfortunate. Too bad there was no resuscitation bag you could have used."

Everyone was complicit in "letting Randy die."
