Real Life Lies

It has been a year since we experienced SARS-COV2. It has been a journey laced with lies.

They lied about the origin of the virus.

They lied about wearing facemasks.

They lied about lockdowns.

They lied about medications to treat it.

They lied about ¨vaccines¨.

It has been a year and I have had my blood tested three times for antigens – guess what? – the levels have remained at a steady high level and I have not gotten ill again. No, I did not get even close to getting ¨vaccinated¨.

However, every person living around me has been shot up and boosted and they are all ill all the time.

Fevers, coughs, muscle aches. It is sad to watch. And in the news are reports of young adults dropping dead for no apparent reason. There is even a name for it: SADS: Sudden Adult Death Syndrome.

This is like a badly written science fiction movie.

Except it is real.

The Hospital

June 27th – July 19th, 2021

Sunday, June 27, 8:30 p.m.

The Hospital

Sunday evening, I felt drained and tired but had no fever. It had been two weeks of being sick, with mid-range fevers, congestion, and fatigue. Maria called an ambulance and insisted I go to the hospital. I wanted to wait till Monday, but everyone seemed concerned that I go right away even though I was in no pain and was not short of breath; I just kept having fits of coughing. There was a question about where I would go – CIMA or the state hospital. My feeling was that going to a private hospital would be better. Maria said it was less crowded – I told her I would go to the less crowded one. My son Daniel (who was also very sick but recovering) heard me say that. Instead, Maria told the ambulance driver to take me to the state hospital.

Emergency Room

The ambulance ride was long and I was hooked up to oxygen as we traveled to the hospital. No one talked to me as I watched the flickering car headlights and passing streetlights reflected on the ambulance ceiling, unsure about what would happen to me. The attendant in the ambulance had a thick pad of forms he was filling out. But I noticed he would write, stop, then look out the window, and never finish the form. He had a very distracted dazed look in his eyes. We arrived at the emergency entrance, and I saw we were in central San Jose, but I was unsure exactly where. I clutched my travel pouch with my important papers, credit cards, phone, and charging cable. As I was wheeled through the double doors I first saw that the walls were painted a dark green, and the light was dim. An obese woman was lying on her stomach on a hospital bed. The nurses were cracking jokes. All the female nurses were very young and acted silly, posing for each other and teasing each other. So, I found the place odd before I was given any medicine or injection. Why were all of these people joking around when sick people were there? In the past, I have been in emergency rooms in the U.S., usually with bright, white walls and solemn, filled with quiet ill people, so I found everything here strange.

After moving me to a hospital bed from the ambulance gurney, an English-speaking nurse asked to give me a PCR test. I questioned her about it; I wondered if there was another way to test if I had COVID – she said no – this was the only way they did it at this hospital. She said they would not treat me if I did not take the test. So, I decided to have it done, remembering that my son had been tested this way and had not been harmed by it.

When the nurse stuck the swab far up my right nostril, it was very uncomfortable. I cringed a bit. Then she stuck a swab far up my left nostril, I flinched back and uttered, ¨What the hell! ¨ I saw a flash and a small sepia-colored microchip shape with this label [#13].

Next, a nurse came with various shaped vials and large syringes and drew blood from my left arm. That arm has the best veins. Another nurse walked up with two large needles and said they needed to take arterial blood samples. First, she took a sample from my left wrist. Another nurse held my arm still – it felt like something was being injected into my wrist rather than drawn out. I was shocked at how badly this procedure hurt. The nurse came around the hospital bed to take a sample from my right wrist. She tried it without the other nurse holding my arm. Again, the pain was intense. But she had to try again because she missed the vein, and it felt like something was injected into my wrist rather than drawn out.

They wheeled my bed into a dark side room, and I dozed off for a short time. After about 30 minutes, a male nurse walked into the room, a female nurse stood solemnly next to him, and without looking directly at me, he stated in a very flat voice that I tested positive for COVID. They then turned and walked out. A few minutes later, the same male nurse returned and said he needed to take all my clothing and someone from my home would have to pick it up. A female nurse helped me undress and put on a faded pink hospital gown. She then put my clothing into a black plastic trash bag. A few minutes later, the male nurse returned and said he needed to take my papers and phone – everything – due to some new magisterial order! I reacted strongly against this because I would be left in this hospital without identification; I did not trust giving anyone my personal belongings – especially my phone. But the male nurse proceeded to tug the things out of my hand and put everything in the bag with my clothes. A few minutes later, a female nurse came in with a form with my name and ID printed and asked who they should contact to pick up my belongings – she emphasized that these things had to be picked up immediately. I told her to call Maria and Carlos, whom I knew had their car and knew where I was. Their number was already listed as a contact because Maria was the one who had called the ambulance. I asked what time it was, and the nurse said around 10:30 pm. I also asked where I was, and she said The Hospital. I was then wheeled into a larger room where there were other patients – I could not see anyone well because my bed was in a flat position, and I dozed off, worried about what I had gotten myself into.

The Hospital: Day One

Monday, June 28

It was dawn when I was transported to the main hospital. After a short ride to the hospital, A nurse wheeled my bed through hallways and to the COVID treatment area, accessed only through a special elevator with a large red emergency warning sign looming over the door. The nurse had to type in a code to open the elevator door. I saw this and felt uneasy. It seemed like I was entering a prison.

The patient rooms had various names; the one I was placed in was named Salon Tara (I found this out weeks later). These rooms held six patient beds, attached to a bank of attachments with computerized monitors that recorded and displayed the patient’s vital statistics. There was a separate bathroom and shower area. The main sliding glass doors were kept shut. Doctors never entered; only nurses and cleaning personnel completely covered in PPE. The far wall from my bed (no. 96) to the left consisted of a large bank of windows. The windows overlooked building roofs, and two large towers were visible in the distance. I tried to figure out what direction I was looking at, and it appeared to be southwest.

*Note: all conversations were in Spanish unless noted with ENG. I understand more Spanish than I can speak, but the nurses and doctors did not know this. My comprehension of Spanish was vital because I was not exposed to the program’s full impact, and the doctors and nurses would say things thinking I did not understand. I understood more than half of what was said in Spanish.

Because no doctors or nurses wore visible name badges and constantly wore masks, it was hard to remember the names of various nurses or doctors.

General Schedule:

4:30 a.m.    Morning nurses came to clean patients and change the bedding.

                  Male attendants came to empty the trash and biohazard containers.

                  Blood pressure check/medicine/anticoagulant shot

5:30 a.m.     coffee and bread

                      Morning nurse/doctor rounds

10:45 a.m.   breakfast: pinto de gallo, bread, cheese, pineapple or banana, water

1:15 p.m.     lunch: chicken, rice, salad, papaya, vegetables, water

4:30 p.m.     dinner: meat/fish, rice, beans, bread, salad, tomato, lettuce, water

                     Blood pressure check/medicine/anticoagulant shot

8:00 p.m.   Warm drink, atole.

                     Night nurse/doctor rounds

                     Night medications.

Atole, sometimes referred to as atolli or atol de elote in other Latin countries, is a warm drink that is traditionally served in Mexico.

Standard recipes call for a mix of corn flour, corn dough, water, and spices. Milk is often incorporated into this set of ingredients to add sweetness and moisture. 

There was a variety of good fresh food. The times are approximate because there was no clock visible from my position. Later I would find out that the date and time were displayed very small on the lower right side of the patient monitor. I could not see the small time displayed well because I did not have my eyeglasses with me

I learned the names of the other patients on the first day. I noticed that all patients had their phones and bags of personal belongings. I was the only one without a phone and personal belongings, and the nurses were not clear about my placing a phone call. They were very unhelpful. I kept asking to call my son and tried to figure out how to contact him once I got access to a phone. I did not have the number memorized, and since I did not have any of my papers, I had no phone numbers memorized. But I remembered the restaurant owned by Alex, the son of Maria and Carlos. Even though it was Monday and the restaurant was closed, Rosita offered to call it after looking it up on Facebook. We rang several times, and finally, Lara’s sister Elizabeth answered! Bingo! We got through, and Rosita gave Elizabeth the telephone number to have my son contact me. I felt better knowing that someone on the outside knew where I was.

Nurses came in with patient medicines and syringes. A nurse grabbed my left arm to give me a shot; I pulled away and asked what it was. She got pissed off and began sounding off at me in Spanish as she gave all the other patients a shot. Then she asked me if I still did not want it – I said ¨No, I don’t want it.¨ I thought her attitude was ridiculous. Leo and I talked about it – how unreasonable she was. Later, we asked another nurse what the shot was, and I found out it was an anticoagulant – Heparina – Leo and I looked it up on his phone, and I read that it was ok. So, I got the afternoon injection.

Patients:

Bed No. 97: Leo. He is married with two sons. He was ill but could talk on his phone ok. He volunteered for a research study on a floor below where we were. A research study paper was put on my tray table instead of his by mistake, and I read it before I realized what it was. Later, I saw an American doctor come in to talk to him. By Thursday morning, he was transferred out and replaced by an older woman.

Bed No. 95: Tina. She was about 50 years old and, during the day, was always in a very sour mood. At first, she was very sick. She slept most of the day and was not breathing well. Her phone lost its charge, and she did not have the proper cable, so Rosita let her use her phone to call home, and she would go on a loud rant about how COVID was the way to get people from doing their evil deeds. She would tell her father to stop drinking and doing nasty things when she spoke to him on the telephone.

Bed No. 98: Aglia was very sick and slept on her side or stomach for the first two days. She did not talk very much to any patients. She would speak with her family on her phone all the time.

Bed No. 99: Jose was very ill; he could barely breathe, he did not eat, he did not talk, he just laid on his back and slept the whole time. Jose was transferred out by Tuesday.

Bed No. 100: Rosita was still coughing a bit but was getting better. She said she had been there for 21 days. Rosita spent her days talking to her large family on her phone. She offered me the use of her phone to call home.

The First Night: The nighttime was very different from the daytime. I was hooked to a large cannula and an oxygen machine because my oxygen level was around 83. Around 8:30 p.m., the nurses gave us medicine and a cup of water. I asked what each pill was. The first night I got a vitamin C, two large white pills for digestion, and a tablet in a blister pack for circulation/oxygen. I began to hear Rosita’s monitor above her bed making a musical-sounding chime. The little light at the top would light up and off. Rosita herself was fast asleep on her side. I thought this was very strange. We were all hooked up to our monitors by a finger pulse monitor. These were special because they also kept track of our oxygen saturation level, which showed up on the monitors above our beds. A beeping alarm would sound if the monitor fell off your finger or if you took it off. So, how and why was Rosita’s monitor making a very relaxing musical chime? I listened and gradually fell asleep.

I began to fall asleep and felt a ¨glitch¨ (The only way to describe it – I felt my body twitch, my heart jumped a beat, and I was over and into what I will call a program.) First, I was walking in the hospital, and fantastic machines ran the whole building in the basement under the emergency Covid section. Down a dark hallway, I saw the machines replicating themselves by using women as surrogates for creating human/machine beings. I saw a pregnant woman screaming as a machine sliced her open to reveal a strange round armadillo-shaped mechanical ¨baby¨. Some human nurses nearby marveled at it, and I left quickly down another hallway and then saw a flash of a document in a sepia tone. It looked like a patent document. On it was the Title DOD Department of Defense, bar code, and patent number – similar to this example:

There was a list of subscriptions in numerical order that one could choose. I just accepted the first one, which led me to a night-long exhaustive creation of my own company. I designed the logo, the name – Supreme Drone Delivery – and the whole business model. I was delighted and excited; it was a total rush. I could not wait to tell Daniel all about it. I woke up near dawn, drenched in sweat, my heart racing, and I felt as if I was surfacing from deep underwater. Several monitors were beeping what sounded like a repetitive sentence: ¨You cannot save us. ¨ ¨No, you can’t ¨ This was coming from monitors no.98 and no.99. I thought, what the hell was in that medicine? I recognized everything I had just undergone as some drug-induced hallucination.

I awoke to a dawning recognition of strange things about several patients and nurses’ behavior. I feel now, in retrospect, that the first night’s medication began my trip into the program that was being run. Before the first night’s pills, I did not hear chimes and beeps from patient monitors, I did not hear people talking strangely, and I did not see people acting weird.

6/28/21, 9:20 a.m. – Daniel: Good morning Maria, how are you? I hope you’re well. I wanted to tell you that a bag of my mother’s things was at my door this morning. The things were her clothes, document holder, telephone and charger. Now that she doesn’t have a phone, we have to wait longer for information.

6/28/21, 10:14 a.m. – Maria: Yes Carlos and I went to the hospital last night and I picked up that bag, we have the documents on hand and he put alcohol on them. Wash clothes with plenty of soap. I went to the Covi emergency center at the hospital downtown. I spoke to dr. that she is with her and she told me that she was responding well to oxygen.

6/28/21, 10:14 a.m. – Maria: Mr. Ramos will bring you cooked food.

6/28/21, 10:19 a.m. – Daniel: Ok, I understand. Thank you very much for your help, Maria. God bless you.

6/28/21, 10:29 a.m. – Maria: Yesterday I realized how much I love your mommy. I have a hospital phone number, I am trying to communicate and if I know something I will tell you. 6/28/21, 10:30 a.m. – Daniel: Thanks for the kind words Maria. Ok, thanks again.

6/28/21, 10:37 a.m. – Maria: Daniel. How do you feel?

6/28/21, 10:38 a.m. – Daniel: I feel good. I have no fever or pain

6/28/21, 10:45 a.m. – Maria: Good. You shouldn’t go outside for 2 weeks. If you can, take the boxes that are around the table out on the terrace. You should put liquid Lizol on the surfaces. and spray the whole house. Open window doors, if you can little by little and remove all of mom’s bedding and take the mattress out to the balcony to ventilate. I would like to help you but it is dangerous for me I am high risk. Anything you need, let me know with confidence.ok😉 ♥ ️👍🏽

6/28/21, 10:50 a.m. – Daniel: Ok, I understand. Without worries. I’ll start disinfection today as you described .👍🏽

6/28/21, 1:33 p.m. – Daniel: Ok, thank you very much

6/28/21, 6:14 p.m. – Maria: Hi Daniel, how are you feeling?

6/28/21, 6:16 p.m. – Daniel: Hi Maria, I feel good. How was the visit to my mother?

 6/28/21, 6:20 p.m. – Maria: I couldn’t see her. But I was reassured to know that she is in a room where the condition is average, I am waiting for the doctor in charge of her to call me.

6/28/21, 6:22 p.m. – Daniel: Ok, thank you very much for this news.

6/28/21, 6:31 p.m. – Maria: I recently spoke with Dr. and she says your mother did not allow them to put the heparin in her. Heparin is an anticoagulant that is generally applied to the stomach when lying down for a long time to avoid forming blood clots. These patients are isolated and do not allow any communication.

6/28/21, 6:32 p.m. – Maria: You can look it up on the internet.

6/28/21, 6:37 p.m. – Daniel: Ok, I know what this drug is. Thanks for the update.

 6/28/21, 6:39 p.m. – Maria: It worries me, also this disease gives thrombi (clots) and heparin does not allow this to happen.

6/28/21, 6:40 p.m. – Daniel: Do we know the results of the covid test for my mother?

6/28/21, 6:44 p.m. – Maria: If she has covid. And by nexus you too. Since I was close to her last Wednesday, I must be at my house and let no one come because I too can have covid.

6/28/21, 6:45 p.m. – Maria: Do you know where you got it?

6/28/21, 6:47 p.m. – Maria: You guys went to San Lorenzo last week.

6/28/21, 6:51 p.m. – Daniel: I started feeling bad on Monday, June 14. I was with Nico just to run an errand and then back to my house. I’ve been at my house all this time. We canceled the trip to Heredia and never went. I would be surprised if it was covid.

6/28/21, 6:54 p.m. – Maria: Renee went somewhere to get it.?

6/28/21, 6:57 p.m. – Maria: I was with Renee on June 16 in the afternoon, who got sick first. 6/28/21, 6:59 p.m. – Daniel: Right, I was sick on the 16th, not my mother. My mother was mainly here in the house between June 14 and June 27. She got sick from me after a week of being sick. We were not traveling because it rained a lot these 2 weeks.

6/28/21, 7:02 p.m. – Maria: She went to the dentist and to the supermarket?

6/28/21, 7:05 p.m. – Daniel: No dentist. I do not remember the market. What I’m saying is that she’s more likely to have gotten sick from me than from any of these other places in the last 2 weeks. I was sick a week before she started to feel bad.

 6/28/21, 7:11 p.m. – Maria: Most likely. Now ask God that she does not complicate in the next few days.

6/28/21, 7:14 p.m. – Maria: I explained to you last night but I don’t think you understood me that it was better to go to CIMA even though it is very expensive.

6/28/21, 7:14 p.m. – Maria: But cheaper than USA.

 6/28/21, 7:26 p.m. – Daniel: Is my mother at CIMA?

6/28/21, 7:28 p.m. – Maria: No, she is in The Hospital, I already told you, in bed # 96.

6/28/21, 7:31 p.m. – Daniel: ok, I understand. We will continue to pray for her health. Thank you and have a good night Maria.

The Hospital: Day Two

Tuesday, June 29

It was Tuesday around noon when I got to talk to Daniel. I made sure to memorize his phone number. I was talking on Rosita’s phone, and a doctor arrived at the door with an entourage of nurses. He demanded (by shouting into the room from the door in ENG) to get off the phone! I kept talking while looking at him, I think I said something about getting off to Daniel, but I did not hang up immediately because I was astounded at the doctor’s behavior. He kept yelling to get off the phone, or he would have to intubate me! I asked, ¨are you threatening me?¨ He said my oxygen levels were deficient, so I could not be talking on the phone! He was literally stamping his foot in a fury! Now, think back to what I already wrote — I was surrounded by people talking on their phones whenever they wanted, and some were in worse condition than I was! This incident added to my misgivings about the hospital. I had never been treated this way.

I told Daniel that I wanted to get out of this hospital and go to CIMA — that this place was strange.

I spent the day sleeping and sometimes talking with the other patients. Jose was not recovering, and they transferred him out. Another man (I will call him Zappo because he looked like a frog) was admitted. This man constantly talked like he was on speed. I could not understand much of what he said, but he kept talking to everyone. I noticed he did not wear a mask and was not connected to oxygen. He walked freely around the room. He appeared not to be sick. I never heard him cough. I immediately felt a distrust of him. I openly asked him in Spanish what he was doing here since he appeared not to be sick, but he did not answer.

The nurses turned on the large TV in the evening, and I tried to sleep, but Zappo kept talking all evening. The nurse had given Zappo the remote, and he wanted to watch the news and violent novellas all night. So, about 10:00 p.m. — the nurses had turned off the room lights, and most everyone else was asleep — I asked Zappo to turn off the TV. He said no. So, I began to take my finger pulse monitor on and off so that the alarm would get a nurse into the room. This Zappo guy walked over to my bed and said I should stop doing that, or they would think we were having sex! I knew he was strange, and I became a bit afraid. I realized how vulnerable I was. I knew I had to talk to the doctors about this situation. How was I going to recover when I could not get good rest? Why would they have a man who was not sick walking around the room? How could they have a TV on all night in a room of COVID patients? Nothing was making sense.

On this night, when the nurses finally did come in and turn off the TV, I ¨glitched¨ again and fell into the next subscription titled the No.No. House. In this scenario, you chose your weapon and the house’s configuration, and you had to evade some soldiers and try to kill them in return. I just wanted to sleep, but instead, I woke myself up. I saw that everyone was asleep except me. I noticed that the monitors for beds no.98 and no.99 were working overtime, making beeps and clicks, and the lights on top were flickering in tandem with Tina’s monitor next to me. She was making moans and noises like she was having sex. Again, I was like — what the hell is this? The other monitors seemed to be doing things to Tina through her monitor.

I fell asleep and, in the morning, awoke in a complete sweat again.

Sequence Detail: Patient Monitors

8:00 p.m. Nurses dispense night medicine. Patients begin to get sleepy. 8:30 p.m.: Patient Monitor №100 begins a melodic relaxing chiming with the light at the top flickering in tandem. Everyone drifts off to sleep.

After approximately 20 minutes, a countdown chime starts for about 30 minutes. Then there are answering beeps and clicks with the patient Monitors №98 and 99. My impression is that they were communicating with each other and linking up. The monitors all link up with patient Monitor №95, and after a few minutes, the patient in that bed responds with moaning and groaning. The patients in beds №98, №99, and №97 begin making grunts, groans, and mumbling yes, nice — all very sexual. №96 — my bed is not communicating with the other monitors with beeps and clicks (because I am awake?); however, when I take off the finger pulse monitor and unattached myself, it disrupts the link between all of the monitors. I discovered this days later. There is also another particular aspect of patient monitors. When the sequence is over, they make beeps that sound like words. At first, I thought they sounded like ¨You Cannot Save Us. ¨ But, by the second night, I was sure the words were ¨You Cannot Stop Us. ¨ ¨No, You Can’t ¨. The sequence repeats itself eight times during the night — with each sequence lasting about an hour. It all stops by 4:30 a.m. (8 hours later) when the morning nurses clean the patients and their beds to begin the day.

I will explain; I knew when I was asleep and seeing things in some program and when I was awake and seeing things in reality. I could tell the difference. What I saw when I woke up was real, and I tested it by talking the next day with Leo and Rosita. They both complained about the constant chiming of the monitors for no apparent reason. Neither one remembered though anything from when they slept.

The Hospital: Day Three

Wednesday, June 30

I called this day the breakthrough day.

In the morning, I talked to the 4:30 a.m. nurses. One was very nice. I gave him Daniel’s phone number and asked him to call to tell him I was ok and let him know my bed number. I tried to make friends and get the word out to as many people as possible.

I was able to have a video call with Daniel in the afternoon. The hospital has a computer tablet to do this! (Question: Why was I not offered this before?) I relayed to him that I wanted to go to CIMA. I tell him that the care here is terrible. I tried to hint to him that other things were going on by speaking in code because the nurses were listening carefully. I mention the book One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.

I spoke to Dr. Rico (sp? ENG), who came into the salon, and I discussed the problem with Zappo. I told her I could not sleep until late because of Zappo talking and the TV. I asked her how a man who did not appear to be sick could be in this room, walking around. Dr. Rico seemed scared and nervous throughout the whole conversation. She kept looking towards the door and began picking at her latex glove until she tore a hole in it. A piece of blue latex snapped off, and I felt a drop of her sweat land on my face. She seemed unaware of doing it. I began to sense that there might be even more problems than just weird patients who talked all day and night and chimes from monitors. Here was a doctor that was clearly under some strain.

This day was also the day I became aware of a particular phenomenon. I would hear people talking in English or Spanish, and they would be saying impossible things. If I said anything about it to them, they would deny it. These were auditory hallucinations that seemed entirely real but improbable because people were saying things they could not possibly know. In addition, the things they said were childish and mean. It was like listening to little children taunting someone – in this case – me. For example, I overheard Zappo telling Rosita that she should not let me use her phone because she might get in trouble. On this day, Zappo was acting manic; he talked nonstop the whole day and into the evening

In the evening, I thought of others in the past and present that were in similar situations; cut off from friends and family, imprisoned, and possibly tortured. I thought of Julian Assange. I thought of Nelson Mandela. I thought of Sitting Bull. I decided I needed to be more on the offensive and protect myself. They said I could not have anything from outside the hospital, so I took the paper masks they gave us daily and began making something to help me keep track of the time and events. I used memory knots. They would not let me have a pen or paper, so I got creative. I tied this to my arm so I would not lose it.

I overheard Aglia talking about me badly at night before she went to sleep. It was strange; she was lying in bed talking on her phone; I could see the glow of her phone on her face as she was facing my direction, saying things like, ¨Who does this, Renee think she is, buying a house, having chickens? ¨ENG. I told her to shut up and go to sleep. How did she know I was buying a house? I might have mentioned that I had chickens, but why did she seem to be taunting me?

That night, I had decided not to take Florodon (sp?) medicine.

https://globaldossier.uspto.gov/#/details/US/12089203/A/109204

https://patents.google.com/patent/US6329429B1/en

It is not listed on the drugs I was given. I read the back of the blister pack and heard the nurses say the name. I realized that Florodon was the medication that put me to sleep and made me ¨glitch¨ into the program. I spit the pill out into my cup of water when the nurse was not looking. In addition, to combat the drowsiness and the sweating, I realized that if I took a piece of paper towel dipped in my cup of water and dabbed it on my forehead and face, I felt cooler and more awake. I stayed up all night without taking the drug and witnessed what happened when everyone went to sleep.

This was the breakthrough, I now had a better idea of what I was in the middle of, and I realized I had to get out.

I express No Intubation at all.

The Hospital: Day Four

Thursday, July 1

I felt distraught for a while on this day because I realized I was in something that could be very dangerous. I cried into the bedsheets. All I wanted was to get well, but there was noise, weird people, auditory hallucinations, unfair treatment, and a lack of communication with my friends and family. I had absolutely nothing to do but sit in bed while all around me, people were chatting on their phones and playing games on apps.

Many changes occurred on this day.

Zappo was transferred from the room, and we got a new patient Pedro in bed No.99. My friend Leo was moved to the research project. An older woman named Felicity was transferred to bed No.97. Her bed was slightly turned away from mine, and she was only in this room for two days, so I never really got to talk with her.

There are two nurses that I describe as evil twins. One wears goggles and a mask under the face shield, and she makes it plain that she does not like me. She tries to take my water from my tray. She asked about my memory project on my wrist and tried to take it! The other nurse acts very disgusted about having to change the bed sheets. These two clean up during the day and early evening, so I only have to tolerate them twice a day.

I spoke to Daniel through WhatsApp on Rosita’s phone at 6:00 p.m., told him I would be strong, and showed him my memory project. The nurses always stand next to me when I talk on the tablet or Rosita’s phone, so I have to speak to Daniel in code to convey to him that there is something seriously wrong here in the hospital. On this call, I went into greater detail about the story One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest. I told him that I was the Indian.

On this night, I ¨glitched¨ but woke up and kept myself cool with a wet paper towel. I saw the sequence starting again but decided to try and sleep. Before I fell asleep, I noticed that people in the hallway outside the room were walking back and forth. It was late, yet I saw people acting like they were having a party. I could even hear people laughing and joking like at a party. I wondered what people were doing acting this way at night in a hospital with critically ill people. I was able to stay out of any program and sleep the rest of the night.

1/7/21, 2:08 p.m. – Maria: Hi Daniel, how are you? Dr. Rico called me. Your mother continues the same with saturation of 90 -92-95, which is very serious. But since she did not allow herself to take the medications until Tuesday. She’s been on steroids for 3 days and maybe tomorrow she’ll see better results. She told me that you and your mom don’t agree to the tubing. I clarify that this procedure is done with anesthesia or is asleep and she does not feel anything. Too bad she was too late to the hospital. Let us pray to God that everything goes well.

7/1/21, 2:12 p.m. – D: Ok, thanks for this information. The doctor was clever to call me. I have called all day and I have not reached anyone.

1/7/21, 2:15 p.m. – Maria: She called me to explain to you why she doesn’t speak English.

7/1/21, 2:16 p.m. – D: I understand, thank you.

1/7/21, 2:17 p.m. – Maria: She called me from #XXXXXXX Call to see if you can understand her.

7/1/21, 2:18 p.m. – D: Good thanks.

1/7/21, 2:19 PM – Maria: Dr. Leonardo’s # if he speaks English #XXXXXXXX.

7/1/21, 2:24 p.m. – D: The difficulty is that I call and speak to the nurse and she tells me to call tomorrow afternoon. So for now, I can’t speak to a doctor. Dr. Leonardo doesn’t answer the phone.

1/7/21, 2:25 p.m. – Maria: Call those numbers I gave you.

7/1/21, 2:27 p.m. – D: Yes, I called all the phone numbers. I have them saved. I spoke to Rosita only today and she couldn’t allow my mother to speak for some reason.

1/7/21, 2:28 p.m. – Maria: I called Rosita and she gave her the messages.

1/7/21, 2:30 p.m. – D: Ok, thank you very much Maria.

1/7/21, 6:13 p.m. – Maria: How are you feeling?

1/7/21, 6:19 p.m. – Maria: What you are living is very difficult, it is a pity that Debra is not there to accompany you. No one is to blame for what happens to Renee, only she who did not want to be vaccinated and go to the hospital first and also the following Monday, Sunday, she did not allow herself to put the medications. Her obesity is a major risk factor. This is the truth, I don’t want anything bad to happen. I am praying and we have a chain of people praying for her.

7/1/21, 6:22 p.m. – D: Ok, thanks for your support Maria.

1/7/21, 6:23 p.m. – Maria: How are you feeling?

1/7/21, 6:25 p.m. – Maria: You already ate. Of the pills that Enrique went to buy, do you still have anything left?

7/1/21, 6:26 p.m. – D: I feel good. All medicine is gone. I don’t feel bad anymore. I have no fever or cough.

1/7/21, 6:42 p.m. – Maria: So it happened to you. However, you should not go out on the street for 2 weeks to avoid infecting anyone. Ideally, you do the test for more assurance.

7/1/21, 6:49 p.m. – D: Yes, I understand. I can’t leave the house until July 12.

1/7/21, 6:51 p.m. – Maria: If you need something, tell me and we will buy it for you. We are family.

7/1/21, 6:52 p.m. – D: Ok, thank you very much Maria.

7/1/21, 7:56 p.m. – Maria: Daniel forgive me for insisting but if they need tubing as a last resort it should be done and not let her die. They sedate them. Renee does not realize it or suffer it. 1/7/21, 8:00 p.m. – D: Thanks for your recommendation, Maria. We will pray that I do not have to make that decision and that my mother recovers in time.

1/7/21, 8:01 p.m. – Maria: Yes, but you have to talk to her to convince her.

1/7/21, 8:11 p.m. – D: Maria, I need to explain this to you in the most respectful way possible. My mother and I have talked about many things about her health and actions to take. My mother has explicitly instructed me never to allow the incubation tube no matter the circumstances. Therefore, I respectfully ask you not to discuss this further. I also respectfully ask that you no longer speak to a doctor about this. I’ve talked to the doctor and the incubation tube will never happen. Please respect my mother’s wishes and don’t continue to worry about this. We need to stay positive and objective. Worrying about the incubation tube and convincing my mother is not the help and support she needs right now. I hope to communicate my intention well with this message. I won’t talk about this incubation tube anymore. Out of respect for Renee, don’t mention it anymore. I really appreciate everything you have done for me and Renee and I hope you are not offended by my request.

1/7/21, 8:14 p.m. – Maria: Perfect Daniel, I won’t bother you anymore. Apologies. Let us pray that everything is for the best. It is respected.

1/7/21, 8:18 p.m. – D: Ok, thank you very much again, Maria. We will continue to pray for Renee.

Lawyer SB: 7/1/21, 6:16 p.m. – D: Hello SB, how are you? I have yet to receive the POA from you. My mother’s situation is not good, and I need your legal and translation assistance with the hospital. I fear without your help, the worst will happen. I don’t want to stress you with this urgent need but I have no choice. Please feel free to call or text me. Thank you for your time.

7/1/21, 6:39 p.m. – Lawyer SB: Hi Daniel, sorry, I was out most of the day today. I will get in touch with them tomorrow

7/1/21, 6:40 p.m. – Lawyer SB: I will find out if there is any possibility for them to let us sign the POA somehow.

7/1/21, 6:48 p.m. – D: Great, we need to. I spoke with my mother tonight and she sounded scared. She is not happy with treatment procedures. Once we have the POA signed, I will need your contact with the doctor at least once a day. Today, I called all the numbers I have and I couldn’t speak to a doctor. This is a very bad situation my friend. Thank you for your help and I will talk to you tomorrow.

The Hospital: Day Five

Friday, July 2

Observations today: Pedro seems to be using his phone to research information about me, and I overhear him telling Rosita that she should not help me. He mumbled about how she could get in trouble with the US and FBI. The US embassy might come after her. I found this very strange because Zappo had insinuated the same things. Pedro discussed with Aglia and Rosita how I have $240K in the bank. They talk about how my house in San Lorenzo has washed away, and the chickens are all dead. I saw the recent news reports about a rainstorm on the TV, and I became even more convinced that there was a pattern to the things I was overhearing. First, the things I heard were spoken in Spanish; however, I can understand more than speak the language. Second, everything said was either threatening or tragic. Why? To upset me and make me scared and nervous? Why were certain patients interested in focusing on me and discussing facts about my life that they had no public access to know?

I got to speak to Daniel at 7:00 a.m., and I asked about the house and chickens. He said everything was fine.

I spent the day working on my memory knots, observing the nurses, and cleaning attendants.

The nurses look hot and exhausted in their PPE. All of us patients act very polite and always thank everyone who gives us food, cleans our beds, or gives us our medications. Some of the nurses we can joke with. I have made several nurses laugh at some silly things I say. Many know some English. The male attendants who take the dirty linen and the red biohazard bags are very unhappy. Most do not smile, and I have seen some who bang stuff around and almost smash and then throw the biohazard bags out the salon door after sealing them up. Rosita and I discuss our observations and thoughts.

About Tina. Every morning she is outraged. She yells at her family about Covid and sin when she gets to use the phone. I can only guess it is because of the sexual nature of her treatment at night.

9:00 p.m.: Repeat of the night before. I took all my medication, even the Florodon, but I woke up after about 30 minutes. I spent several hours watching the monitors and the people who walked by in the hallway outside the room. It was a long night till 4:30 in the morning. However, I am now terrified to fall asleep at night. I try to sleep more in the daytime since I have nothing else to do.

7/2/21, 4:35 p.m. – D: Hi Maria, how are you? I hope you are well. I wanted to tell you that I sent the money to pay the rent. It may take a few days to reach Carlos’ account. Also, I am working to pay for water and electricity, but I may have complications during this month. I want you to know beforehand.

7/2/21, 4:37 p.m. – Maria: What kind of complications?

7/2/21, 4:38 p.m. – D: The specific problem is accessing my mother’s bank account that she uses to pay for water and electricity. I cannot access this account at this time to make the payment. The money is there, I just can’t log into the account. We will have to work on something for this month.

7/2/21, 4:44 p.m. – D: One solution is that I can pay for water and electricity through my BNCR account. I will have to know how much to pay in colones, but this is how we can do it.

7/2/21, 4:52 p.m. – Maria: We will give you the data of NISE WHICH IS FROM LIGHT AND THE NIS FROM WATER. You pay for it online.

7/2/21, 4:53 p.m. – D: Ok, thank you very much Maria.

2/7/21, 4:55 p.m. – Maria: NISE is the # of the power and light company named after Carlos.

7/2/21, 4:58 p.m. – D: Ok, these numbers are the account numbers, right?

2/7/21, 4:58 p.m. – Maria: Yes.

7/2/21, 4:59 p.m. – D: Ok, thank you very much. I will work to pay for this.

7/2/21, 5:02 p.m. – Maria: Your mother told me that she had colones in the house. Carlos finds out amounts for her and you give the money to Carlos and he goes and pays.

7/2/21, 5:04 p.m. – D: It is possible this way, it depends on the amount of colones. I don’t know how much I have to pay for water and electricity. this month.

7/2/21, 5:27 p.m. – Maria: It’s from the month of June.

7/2/21, 5:30 p.m. – D: Ok, I will search my mother’s records to find out how much I have to pay.

____________________________________________________________________________

Daniel’s notes: Lawyer SB: 7/2/21, 7:29 a.m. – D: Good morning SB, I hope you are well. I would like to speak with you when you are available today, and provide an update on my mother. I spoke with her this morning and we have additional concerns. Thank you for your time and assistance.

7/2/21, 3:29 p.m. – D: Hello SB, I wanted to tell you I spoke with one of the doctors today at 1:25 p.m. He explained my mother’s condition remains stable. I explained to him about the poor communication and that you and the legal team will be in contact with the hospital moving forward. The doctor seemed nervous because he asked me if we still wanted to move my mother. I politically answered no, my mother needs to receive treatment there. Between you and I as discussed earlier, I would like to fight through the court to move my mother to CIMA. I will let you and the legal team answer these questions to the doctors. I dont want to say the wrong thing to the doctors and have my mothers treatment be affected. Lastly, the doctor explains the protocol is every 2 days they are available for an update.

7/2/21, 3:34 p.m. – D: I am not entirely satisfied with every 2 days, so we will have to see if an update everyday is achievable. Lastly, once the POA is ready for my mother to sign, I would like to know if it is possible to arrange giving my mother her cell phone to communicate. If it is possible, you could come to my house and pickup her cell phone and charger ahead of POA sign. I am afraid my mother’s spirit will dwindle if she is unable to communicate with family during this difficult time. Please let me know what you think. Thank you very much.

7/2/21, 4:09 p.m. – Lawyer SB: Hi Daniel, ok, we can request this to see what happens.

The Hospital: Day Six

Saturday, July 3

This day was another dull day—same routines.

The nurses use a pen to record the patient’s blood pressure and temperature on a chart. The mean nurse who wears goggles was so busy trying to take my cup of water that she accidentally left her writing pen on my tray table. I hid the pen in the sheets of my bed. Then I got a paper mask and began the third pouch. I wrote Daniel’s phone number and Rosita’s phone number inside. I also made up codes for my observations about the patient monitors.

In my evening video call with Daniel. I use code words and references again to try and explain what is happening here. I ask him to do everything he can to get me out of this nightmare.

The Hospital: Day Seven

Sunday, July 4

The same routines. There is fewer medical personnel around, and the hospital seems quieter. On this day, the older woman named Felicity began to prepare to go home. The nurses got a bag of new clothes for her to change into, and she was thrilled. Everyone wished her well. Rosita’s birthday is Monday, and the nurses tell her she will leave tomorrow. I will miss her because she was very nice to give me her phone number and use her phone. She had been here in the hospital for over 24 days.

On TV, we watched many religious programs. I reviewed my knots and counted the days backward from when I was in the ER.

I wish to go home. I feel great; I can breathe much better without coughing. The nurses gave us all a yellow plastic lung exerciser– much like in this photo. All the patients practice increasing their lung capacity during the day.

There is still the same nightly sequence with the monitors and strange talk from nurses and some patients. I remembered that Leo never said anything weird, and Rosita did not, either. Except I stopped trusting Rosita after I heard her talking with Pedro. She had also begun talking badly about Maria after Maria called her to contact me. So, I limited using her phone. Only Aglia and Pedro have said strange things about me, my house, chickens, and money.

I kept up the same schedule at night, staying up most of the night and sleeping in the daytime.

They have a lot of water and food and they are good. I appreciate all your help. My mother is fine with the treatment, I spoke to her last night. We will continue to pray for her speedy recovery. Thanks again for everything and have a great day.
