A powerful testimony from Michael McNair who was a Canadian military service member but was medically discharged due to injuries caused by the vax. Public health acknowledges that he has PTSD due to his medical conditions, but won’t admit his blood clots were vaccine related.
He is visibly upset and angry, and rightfully so. I’m glad he got to speak today.
💗 Chronic Illness Finds — something new I’m starting!
Over the last few years, I’ve found so many little things that genuinely make living with chronic illness easier—comfort items, accessibility tools, organization, self-care, and everyday essentials.
I’m going to start sharing some of the things I personally use and love in case they can help someone else too. 🫶
Some links I share will be affiliate links, meaning I may earn a small commission at no additional cost to you. It’s also a small way to help support me while I continue navigating treatment and recovery. 💕
If something makes chronic illness life even 1% easier, I think it’s worth sharing.
Stay tuned for my first find! 💗

I’ve been cleared by my eye dr that my eyes are so far stable. And waiting on the Edogawa team for clearance for trmts in Japan to clean my blood with DFPA and SGF. Which I am sure they will do!
I am about $6,000 away from getting to $30,000 for trmts. Thanks to my family, friends and from generous people on X.
If anyone out there would be able to help me reach at least that goal to get at least two trmts that would be amazing!
I’ll go for just two, as I’ll never reach $60,000 for all four trmts. As I am in desperate need for medical help.
If anyone see’s this if you could share in case there’s anyone out there that could help me reach part of my goal.
And thank you for all you’ve done for me.. you know who you all are! Forever grateful for your generosity! 🇯🇵

💙 POST-JAPAN TREATMENT UPDATE 💙
I’ve been meaning to write this update since coming home from Japan on August 20. The last few weeks have been a lot, and I wanted to give my body time before putting into words what had changed.
And I can finally say this: there have been definite improvements. ❤️
The two areas where I notice it most are energy and brain fog. My brain feels clearer. I’m able to think and process things better, and I’ve been able to spend more time upright and out of bed.
For someone who spent so much of the last year bedbound in a dark room, unable to tolerate light, talking, sound, or normal stimulation, these may sound like small gains—but to me, they are HUGE.
There were days when conversation, a screen or sitting upright was more than I could tolerate. My world became incredibly small. Being able to think more clearly and participate again is difficult to put into words.
I am absolutely NOT cured, and I am nowhere near 100%. I still have a very limited energy envelope, significant POTS/orthostatic intolerance and ME/CFS, must be extremely careful about overdoing it, and still rely heavily on caregivers.
There have also been scary new medical issues since returning home: intermittent numbness and tingling in my hands and feet and, most recently, acute urinary retention—my bladder stopped emptying properly. I currently have an indwelling catheter and am undergoing further neurological/urological evaluation.
So this has definitely not been a straight line upward.
But despite all of that, I am so grateful for the improvements I HAVE experienced.
One of the biggest questions everyone asks is: Will the improvements last?
The truth is: we simply don’t know yet.
What I underwent in Japan is still an experimental protocol. I completed 4 dual-filtration plasmapheresis treatments (DFPP/DFPA) and 23 stem-cell growth-factor infusions.
The filtration treatments were intended to remove circulating material, including the abnormal clotting/amyloid-associated material we have been investigating. The growth-factor treatments were intended to support recovery and potentially reduce the inflammatory and immune dysfunction thought to be contributing to this process.
The hope is that after dramatically reducing that circulating burden and giving my body an opportunity to recover, it will not recreate the same pathological process again.
That is still the million-dollar question.
From what I’ve learned from researchers, clinicians and patients who came before me, this may ultimately be something I need to repeat at intervals. Some earlier patients have reportedly experienced decline around the 4–6 month mark, while others have maintained improvements longer.
There isn’t enough long-term data to know where I will fall.
Of course, I’m hoping with everything in me that these improvements continue—and last forever. 🤞❤️
Even if I never get back to 100%, spending more time upright, thinking more clearly and participating in my life is profoundly meaningful.
I could tolerate this level of disability so much better than being completely bedbound in a dark room and unable to participate in the world around me.
I don’t take that for granted.
💙 I also want to be transparent that my fundraising journey isn’t over.
I’ll continue raising and saving for ongoing medical care. Many treatments and medications I rely on are still out of pocket.
The specialists I need are often outside Oregon, adding travel, lodging and testing to the cost of care.
I will soon be traveling to Utah to see a new specialist at the Bateman Horne Center, another step in trying to better understand and treat the immune dysfunction and other pieces of this complicated illness.
Depending on how long these improvements last, I may need additional treatment.
So while I am incredibly grateful to share some GOOD news, this journey—and its financial burden—is far from over. I’ll keep fundraising so finances aren’t the reason I have to say no to the next treatment…
📣 Wende bei Impfschadensklagen? Erster mündlicher Termin vor dem OLG München in Augsburg!
Heute fand vor dem OLG München (Zweigaussenstelle Augsburg) die erste mündliche Verhandlung gegen AstraZeneca und Biontech gleichzeitig statt. Nachdem Klagen in den letzten Jahren meist direkt per Beschluss (§ 522 ZPO) abgewiesen wurden, ist dieser Termin ein wichtiger Schritt nach vorne!
Was ist passiert?
Eine betroffene Klägerin schilderte ausführlich ihre schweren Gesundheitsschäden (u.a. epileptische Anfälle, Parästhesien) nach der Erstimpfung mit AstraZeneca und Zweitimpfung mit Biontech. Auch ihr Ehemann wurde als Zeuge vernommen.
🙏 DANKE für eure Unterstützung!
Normalerweise bleiben die Zuschauerränge bei solchen Prozessen weitgehend leer. Heute waren viele Betroffene und Interessierte vor Ort im Saal. Ein herzliches Dankeschön an alle, die dem Aufruf gefolgt sind – eure Präsenz bedeutet unglaublich viel!
Wie geht es weiter?
Der Verkündungstermin des Gerichts ist für den 19. November 2026 angesetzt.
I’ve been fighting for my life for the past 5 years, so my next move: Japan. I am going to be here for a month to fight to get my life back. 🇯🇵 Still trying to wrap my head around the fact that my first trip to Japan isn’t going to be for sushi, sightseeing, and fun.
