The Death Of My Beloved Aunt Three Days After J&J Vaccine

 I just found out about three weeks ago my aunt had died last August. There were some personal family feud issues that are typical sometimes among family members when there's some stake involved. It caused a complete shut down of communications between members of the family that ultimately led to one of them being notified by an insurance company she had left them a life insurance policy and they had spent months looking for her. It's sad these things happen but she wanted to live in her house until she died so to allow her to stay there in peace until one day she passed the decision was made somewhere along the line to cut off communication among family members. That meant all phone calls went unanswered including mine.

I understand why she'd want to live in such a beautiful environment until her last remaining days. I had often wondered where I got my penchants for flowers and gardening and she was quite the gardener. She grew beautiful flowers and was a avid organic gardener. It's a long story how it came to be that I didn't even know I had a aunt on my dad's side the family, actually two of them. As children they basically, after their mothers death had a rough time that seen them being given to their mothers twin sister which shortly thereafter found my dad taking off for parts unknown. He was only nine at the time but back in those days where families in the backwoods of Virginia struggling to survive one of them taking off was just one less mouth to feed more so than an urgent need to locate a missing child. They reconnected a few years later for awhile but become disconnected again for quite a few years. My aunt started placing ads in newspapers trying to find him and a friend of his came across her ad. I was in my mid twenties at that time and the first time I'd ever met her.

She lived on a acre of land with her than husband Don. Numerous visits over the years led to meeting a lot of cousins I never knew. There was never a bad moment ever had among all those visits, totally unlike my moms side the family who had, and may I note my dad also, indulged in to many spirits that often times led to the bad side of themselves springing forth. There was never any alcohol involved and those were some of the most positive times spent enjoying family gatherings. Not that they didn't have problems as a family, as the above mentioned entailed but sibling rivalry was kept at bay among themselves and didn't involved being part of family gatherings. You'd hear the stories later on in detail depending upon who you spent time engaging with later on but there was always that one true thing, when family gathered together it was a time to enjoy and cherish those moments.

Which is what led me up to yesterday. I just did what they were all scared to do and go find out what happened to her after we couldn't find her placed for burial next to her husband Don. Everyone wants closure, everyone wants to go pay their last respects to their loved ones. Even though he never returned my phone calls either I never had any reason to fear him. Actually he was great to be around, great sense of humor that could keep you on a roll for hours. I just decided enough of this crap and I am going to go find out where she is. He came out of the house with his hands all propped up on his hips and I basically just told him relax I don't have a bone in this fight and you know the times we've ever spent together were filled with fun and laughter. We've never had a problem. He relaxed as I was explaining while trying to hold back tears that I just wanted to find closure and I can't do that if I don't know where she is. He said she decided she wanted to be buried next to her mother in Indiana. She didn't much know her mother and it took her most her life to find her. She had died of TB and was sent off to live on back than what was called a TB farm. She spent years researching old TB farms before she finally found her. He hadn't taken her to Indiana yet, her ashes were in the house. Still that's on them to come together on where she finally lays to rest, I was just there to find closure of my own and be able to tell one of her daughters where she was at.

He told me they all decided to get the vaccine. They decided to get the J&J vaccine because it was one shot and done. My aunt, who was 97 at the time, had high blood pressure issues for years. The day after the shot he said she was like in a trance, she just stood at the kitchen sink staring out the window. He said she appeared rather incoherent. The next day they found her laying in bed in a trance unable to communicate or move. They took her to the hospital where she died the next day. He said they told him she died of a neurological disorder that led to a stroke. I said so she died as a result of the vaccine. Him and his son both agreed the vaccine, in their opinion, killed her but debated the vaccines were harmful to everyone because they themselves got the shot and were double boosted. None the less that led to a long debate over the issue of the vaccines with him saying that there are always going to be people who die when new vaccines come out and me telling him not like these vaccines do. He called bull crap on what most I had to say but what are you going to do with people whose main source of news is the nightly news. Which apparently he must not have been watching much because if he had he'd seen this report which was in July of last year, she got her shot in August:

The Food and Drug Administration is adding a warning label to the Johnson & Johnson Covid-19 vaccine following reports of 100 cases of Guillain-Barré syndrome in vaccine recipients.

Ninety-five of those cases were serious enough to require hospitalization, and one person died, the FDA said in a statement Monday. Guillain-Barré syndrome damages nerve cells and can cause muscle weakness. In rare cases, it can cause paralysis.

The cases, which are now under investigation by the FDA and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, "have largely been reported about two weeks after vaccination and mostly in males, many aged 50 years and older," the CDC said in a statement.

The warning was added to provide information on the "observed increased risk" of the syndrome, the FDA said, but added that more research is needed to determine whether vaccination was the definitive cause. The agency noted that the benefits of Covid-19 vaccination clearly outweigh the risks.

Johnson & Johnson said in a statement that the company had been in contact with the FDA "and other regulators about rare cases of the neurological disorder," adding that the number of reports are only slightly higher than the number that would normally be expected, regardless of whether an individual had been vaccinated.

"The chance of having this occur is very low," the company said.

If confirmed, the 100 cases would represent a tiny fraction — less than 0.001 percent — of the more than 12.8 million Johnson & Johnson doses that have been administered in the United States.

Guillain-Barré syndrome is rare, affecting an estimated 3,000 to 6,000 people each year in the U.S, typically following a viral or bacterial infection, according to the CDC. It has also been linked to other vaccines, including certain seasonal flu vaccines and a vaccine to prevent shingles.

Most people recover fully; however, permanent nerve damage and paralysis are possible. People over age 50 are most at risk. 

The FDA's warning label will be included in the fact sheets provided to vaccine recipients.

Those who have received the Johnson & Johnson vaccine should contact a doctor if they develop weakness or tingling sensations, especially in the arms or legs, as well as any sudden problems walking, speaking, chewing or swallowing, the FDA said.  https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/cdc-fda-investigating-possible-j-j-vaccine-link-rare-neurological-n1273748

Someone needs to explain exactly how it is that a otherwise healthy 97 year old woman who got up each day, went out to fill all her bird feeders that two days after getting a covid shot lays helpless in her bed and dies on the third day. Someone needs to explain how they blame this neurological disorder on Guillain-Barré if it supposedly takes two weeks to develop such a illness, it's obviously a flat out lie because she was paralyzed within forty eight hours of getting the vaccine. My cousin said they called it a neurological disorder that led to a stroke. Which blood clotting was also called out early on with the J&J vaccine but than cleared according to the article. Someone also needs to explain how they can get away with calling these cases "small" relative to the number of shots given if a doctor isn't even investigating the fact she was paralyzed and died almost immediately after getting the vaccine, reporting these incidences and just label the death as attributed definitively to something other than the vaccine. If there's no correlation check than they really don't know and it will never be found out. Making such a statement is a fallacy.

Fully knowing the risk, the media coverage given, the bottles labeled with a warning, just how is it that she was even allowed this particular vaccine? Many people just don't understand when I speak of having to protect the most vulnerable among us. She was one of them. She's a prime example. She was a steward of American patriotism, every year she went to the national cemetery to pay her respects to those who served in our military. After my dad died we often went along with her as he ended up being laid to rest in the national cemetery. He never got to serve because he was injured in training, which is a whole different story of how that came about, but if she wasn't going to attend the whole memorial day service, which was lengthy, we'd opt to go along. It's a beautiful tribute to our service members no doubt, I went with her once, it's all the politicians who show up that make it a dragged out ceremony. They do the salute and fly over and it's beautifully decorated with flags on all the graves. She was a committed patriot and proud of the country we live in, she wholeheartedly trusted in our government for them to only turn around and kill her. It's the ultimate betrayal not just by our government but the medical professionals who fear retaliation for asking the questions, who fear telling people the real truth and who fear writing the real cause of these people deaths which enables them to keep the truth hidden.

I found my closure. As tears streamed down my face I cut flowers from her yard like she did every years and went over to the cemetery for her and laid them on my dads grave. This was the best tribute I could give her. For all of those out there saying well she was ninety seven and lived her life I have only one thing left to say and that is exactly who are you to make that determination for her. Who exactly is it that has a right to withhold vital life threatening information from a vulnerable population who grew up in a era of trust toward our government. You better start asking the question because one day you will be just as vulnerable as she was. I know if it hadn't been for that vaccine she'd lived to be one hundred years old still getting up early every day going out to take care of all the wildlife that surrounded her. Sometimes it's the small pleasures in life worth keeping yourself looking forward to another day.
