Dr. Moira Stilwell
If you as a reader is disturbed by the way the medical establishment behaves, email Randy's MLA, Dr.Moira Stilwell.
Moria.stilwell.mla@leg.bc.ca or phone her office at 604.660.8360 and tell her so.
Her address is: 7283 Cambie Street, Vancouver, B.C. V6P 3H2
(right across from George Pearson Centre).
If she gets 200,000 emails and/or phone calls, better yet letters, things will swiftly change. It has got to. We can't be bullied by the medical authorities to the detriment of our security of person.
You might also want to tell your doctor that you disapprove of what is happening on my blog or your own personal experiences. All the doctors are members of the College of Physicians and Surgeons and they can institute changes quicker than the government.

The day after Randy's fifth's month anniversary of his death
I survived yesterday quite well. I was surprised. I did not cry once. However, I did have flashbacks.
When I first was banned from seeing Randy in 2011 I asked one of the nurses if she would wheel Randy in his wheelchair to the common visitor's room so he could look out and see me on the sidewalk. This she did. They left him there alone. He did not know what was happening. He could see me. He was gnarling at the large windows trying to get to me. It was heart breaking. I never asked for the staff to do this again. Now I am crying.
I still have to finish deconstructing Calder's report. What Vancouver Coastal Health has done to discredit me is so bizarre it has to be believable. I asked this past week for the report of Dr. Georgia Nemetz, a psychologist in private practice who had been brought in by VCHA to conduct debriefings with GPC employees following the October 21, 2013, incident: the incident in which I was attacked by staff and security at GPC when I attempted to remove Randy from GPC.I acted in self-defence. When I receive it I will deconstruct it as well.
In Calder's Affidavit paragraph 19 he states that if I continue to have any access to GPC that there is a significant risk that staff at GPC, including Dr. Jame Dunne, who is crucial to the operation of GPC's respiratory ward, will quit or refuse to work on the respiratory ward at GPC. Where in hell did he get that from. Yes, Dr. Dunne do us a favour and quit. Just to reiterate in three years I spoke to Dunne a total of three times: totalling twenty minutes. I sent him numerous emails and he never replied to one of them. As far as I am concerned this respected member of the medical establishment is a cry baby and don't get me going about Dr. John Fleetham, a bigger cry baby than Dr. Dunne..
In paragraph 20, Calder says that VCH has done all that it can to accommodate me in my requests to access Mr. Walker. VCH is under significant pressure from other residents of GPC, families of those residents, staff at GPC, and WORKSAFE BC to protect the safety of all parties involved. What residents, what families, what staff and I was told by Worksafe BC that they would never ask for the banning of anyone. And how did VCH accommodate me. They abused their powers and flaunted the law, no broke the law.. And now my Randy is dead, him being robbed of the time we could have been together.
What is wrong with Calder's and Nemetz's reports is I speculate that they were never made aware of the fact that Randy was not a prisoner at GPC and I only acted in self-defence. Neither of them talked to me or saw the police report. I did not hit a police officer which Calder alledges. How could I intimidate staff at GPC when the staff are the experts in how to intimidate. What about the bruising I received on October 22, 2013 to which I have a witness.
The best one is in paragraph 21 where Calder says that my behavior increases the risk of injury to herself. Does that mean that staff is going to physically attack me again. How can Clark, Wilson, VCH's lawyers allow such garbage to be entered as evidence against me wanting to see Randy. But then lawyers do exactly what their clients tell them.
The deconstruction will continue...next post...

Randy's fifth month anniversary of his death
I apologize again for not doing enough to save Randy. Randy always said I was stupid and I agree. I have been trying to puzzle what has happen these past years since his accident.
One does not need a constitutional challenge to tell Vancouver Coastal Health that it denied Randy his security of person and that they should have acted in his best interests. As for me I was entrapped by a system that is not accountable to anyone: no jail time.

Doctors in Ontario have to follow the law re DNRs and informed consent.
At least in Ontario, doctors are finally instructed to follow the law:
Doctors at a major Toronto hospital violated the law by unilaterally imposing a do-not-resuscitate order on an elderly patient against his family’s wishes, an Appeal Board has ruled in an extraordinary clash over end-of-life care.
go to National Post and type in DNR (father : Douglas DeGuerre ; daughter: Joy Wawrzyniak, who saw her father die and no one would help including the doctors who put the illegal DNR Order on her father).
This happened to me twice finding Randy needing acute care as he was heading for heart failure but I was lucky I called 911 and Randy's imminent death via DNR was averted.
But then I was banned on January 29 2014 from both George Pearson Centre and all other Vancouver General Hospitals because of disrespectful conduct. Risk Management said the Order would be extended forever; this was confirmed by a letter from its lawyers.
Randy finally died on April 13 2014 from organ failure. No one told me he had bad organs.
I had to get a Supreme Court Order to see Randy die in the ICU. I had to get the Order by myself (self-counsel).
I do not know how the Public Trustee and Guardian got involved but its lawyer was able to get an adjournment at the first court hearing for three weeks as Randy's condition was "plateaued" so I could not see Randy for another three weeks and a few days later he died. The PGT didn't care about Randy. If they did they would have made sure I had access to Randy.
If anyone knows how to get a hold of Joy Wawrzniak please refer her to this blog and thank her for fighting for her father since 2008. I would like to talk to her. 604-321-2276
Postscript September 9, 2014, no mention of the Ontario decision is found in the Province or the Sun.
I am also looking for Mary Turner who was/is a resident of Prince George. She lives/lived across from the college.

April 13 2014 ICU VGH 3:00 pm
Quote from the Second Edition of Privileged Presence: Personal Stories of Connections in Health Care, by Liz Crocker & Bev Johnson, page 230.
"The wife knew that the end was near and asked the nurse if she could get into bed with her husband and snuggle. And the answer was, Of course you can, dear."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This isn't what happened to me when I asked the nurse who had twenty years experience in the ICU if I could lay down next to Randy for a few minutes.
The nurse said NO. I said why not. The nurse said that it was not allowed as it was a liability issue. I asked what liability. The nurse then said that the bed Randy was dying on belonged to the hospital.
I was taken aback with the refusal and the stupid reasoning, and backed slowly into an alcove.
As I stood there, slightly out of sight, two Paladin security guards ran to the pod questioning "where is she, where is she." The nurse had called security.
What was security going to do: pull me out of the room by my hair screaming.
This VCH did to me and Randy. This I will never forgive.
If you find this behavior vomitoid by VGH, email Randy's MLA, Moira Stilwell. Moria.still.mla@leg.bc.ca or phone her office at 604.660.8360 and tell her so.

Deconstructing Calder's Erroneous Report Amended 29/08/14
The frist Paragraph 1 wrote by me is missing. I will have to reconstruct it in the next day or two.
*The paragraph missing had to do with Calder's recommendation that I be permanently restricted from attending George Pearson Centre and from all other VCH facilities and this was incorporated in the Notice of Trespass letter I received on January 29 2014 and what risk management said.*
Unless staff and Dr. Dunne are harshly interrogated by the police as if they were terrorists rather than saints, I will never know. If I had not been there on November 18 2013 and December 26 2013 during my limited access to Randy and I calling 911 Randy would have died. Because of the missing paragraph, this sentence was to refer if the staff or Dr. Dunne shut off Randy's heart monitor (the audio). This was conveniently countered later by Paladin Security who said the alarm was on after I brought it to management's attention. Anything to save Palladin's multimillion contract with VCH. Randy's heart rate was 142 and 155 and maybe beyond. In Randy's frail condition his heart rate should have been alarmed at 100.
The staff was instructed not to call 911 because Randy had a DNR on him. Randy did not have terminal cancer, he had respiratory problems, maybe a pneumonia (an infection), he wasn't at the end of a painful cancer death because he did not have cancer; he had a spinal cord injury due to an acquired brain injury.
My ideation is that Mr. Calder be run out of his profession post haste.
His report was given to WorkSafeBC, Vancouver Coastal Health and the Public Guardian and Trustee. And now it is a court record accessible to the public in the Supreme Court Registry.
(Action No. S142003).
How could Vancouver Coastal Health commission such a disparaging report.
On a lighter note, I have custody of Randy's doggie being a mixed terrier-poodle. It is so spolit that it won't eat anything unless I feed him by spoon or else from my hand. I suspect it is his way of getting undivided attention from me. Like Randy when he stubbornly refused for months to have the respiratory technicians tend to him after they took away his passey-muir talking valve... I blame myself for not fighting harder for Randy...They had no right to take away his means of communication limited although it could have been. The first word he spoke to me as he looked at me and this is documented in his health record was the word "stupid." And that is exactly what I am: stupid and also stupid for believing in the system.

August 22 2014
I checked with the court registry this afternoon to see if the two missing affidavits had appeared. No.
I do not know what was in the affidavits that was so important. Maybe it had something to do with not telling the truth.
In any event, I came across an email of one of the supposed "offending emails" I sent to Dr. James Dunne with cc to Dr. John Fleetham. One of the emails that caused Dr. Fleetham to abandon Randy as he could not provide Randy with objective care and one over which Dr. Dunne threatened to resign.
I did not receive a reply to this email.It took Dunne and Fleetham ten months to make mention of it or the one dated May 16, 2013.
Further to my email to you dated May 16, 2013, to which you have not
replied to. Please do.
I also want to know why you are refusing to give Randy an oxygen tank
for use when he is off site. Someone telling me that he doesn't fit the
criteria for home funding does not ring true or Ro telling me that an
oxygen tank might explode the likelihood so remote that such a statement
is rendered ridiculous. Note: I was given a second opinion saying that if Randy
was off site and was having difficulty the only thing that would save him would
be oxygen. I offered to pay for the oxygen.
Just like Randy cannot have a passey muir valve so he can speak
because there is no funding to monitor him. I read the passey muir
web site and it says a passey muir valve helps swallowing so how can
you say that he can't swallow therefore he can't have a passey muir
valve. Randy can swallow, how else can he be rid of his mouth saliva.
I do not believe that you or you staff understands fully what a passey muir
is.
Your rationalization that suctioning only be as needed is based
when a patient is in intensive care and there is one-to-one nursing
and not in a ward with closed curtains and one nurse overseeing ten
patients as she walks down the middle of the ward each fifteen
minutes (????). NOTE: At times you can't even find a nurse on the ward.
They have no schedule they just walk by whenever whenever that is.
Even telling me that Randy can't have the curtains open in
the ward puts him at risk as staff cannot see him.
I want Randy safe and it seems that you are doing everything possible
to make sure he is not safe.
