Reaction of Autopsy Results of Gene Hackman and his wife, Betsy Arakawa

New Mexico authorities finally figured out what happened to Gene Hackman and his wife, Betsy Arakawa. 

She died from hantavirus pulmonary syndrome... a disease with no cure or treatment, and has about a 40% fatality rate. It manifests as flu-like symptoms, then you basically lost the ability to breathe, as your lung starts to fill with fluid (pulmonary edema) and basically... can't get more oxygen in, which causes strain on your heart, and you... die. 

Gene Hackman, in his 90s and suffering from dementia and Alzheimers, did not realize his wife died until a week later, then he had an heart attack. 

And neither was found for days, until a worker became concerned enough to call for authorities for a welfare check. 

What a... sad end to one of the most famous actors of Hollywood... 

Experts say it often takes 2-3 weeks for the symptoms of HPS to manifest, and it does start with flu-like symptoms, and can take a sudden downturn. It is also surprising that neither have any staff or regular visitors. 

Guess money isn't everything...

COVIDiocy Collateral Damage: Heartbreaking Story from Summer Brennan on Twitter

 You can read the original tweets here: https://twitter.com/summerbrennan/status/1442806675325476867?s=20

But I will just summarize it for you. 

Her father, in his 80's, is living fine in rural New Mexico, alone, healthy, and active. And yes, he is vaccinated against COVID. 

Then he fell, and had to be hospitalized for about a week, in the physical rehab area, not ICU. 

But during the stay, he picked up viral pneumonia that wasn't noticed by the staff, who were too busy treating the unvaxxed folks, now infected with COVID, in the ICU. 

He fell in his room and was not found for six hours, and almost died. He had to be put on a ventilator... and put in a storage room, because there is no room in ICU. 

He woke up in 24 hours... But the hospital had to put him on ventilator AGAIN, because they don't have the staff to check up on him, give him tests, or get consulting pulmonologists or cardiologists. Again, full of unvaxxed COVID patients. And there, his condition deteriorated. 

And the hospital did not even try to transfer him to a larger hospital because ALL nearby hospitals are full. In fact, the entire state's ICUs are full. And the doctor said they also tried ICUs in Colorado, Arizona, Texas, Utah, and California. No luck. 

In short, her father will DIE without a cardiac ICU bed, maybe within 24 hours. Confirmed by both nurse and doctor. So she got on the phone and called basically EVERY hospital in a few hundred miles, for FIVE HOURS continuously. And she finally found a cardiac ICU bed in Albuquerque, still within the state. 

And the transfer is made. And according to the doctor there, it was a VERY close call. But her father is now stable. Her father spent 10 days there, slowly healing his heart, but he was on ventilator all the time. They tried to wean him off of it, but his lungs are too weak. 

They have to perform a tracheostomy, to open a hole in his windpipe, and give his lungs a chance to heal. 

And it was VERY VERY CLEAR that if the hospitals were NOT clogged up by the "vaccine-hesitant" he would have NEVER gotten this bad. 

But he seems to be recovering for now. 

----

Her father was collateral damage to all the vaccine hesitants' decisions to NOT vaccinate for COVID. 

To the vaccine-hesitant... your actions have far-reaching consequences than your own body. We've already seen sad story about a man turned away by 43 hospitals, and so on. 

Don't be a vaccine-hesitant entitled selfish COVIDiot.

MORE COVIDiocy: 1 DEAD and 1 Critical of Ivermectin Overdose in New Mexico

 New Mexico officials announced 2 ivermectin overdose cases to the public, that one man is dead, and one man is in critical condition. According to New Mexico Human Services Secretary Dr. David Scrase, while the death is "without firm documentation", a full investigation would take WEEKS and he believes that the cause of ivermectin overdose is "reliable" and putting the warning out in the public, and prevent any further deaths from Ivermectin overdose, is more important than getting the cause of death 100% right 4 weeks later. 

So now it's confirmed, folks. Ivermectin can KILL YOU, esp. if you use the veterinary version meant for cows and horses that weigh several times more than you and have VERY different digestive systems. There is absolutely NO benefit for taking them. The manufacturer said so. The FDA said so. There are NO high-quality studies that show positive results using it on COVID. Only a few people without evidence other than their own rhetoric say it works. 

But by all means, it's YOUR choice. 

Don't be a COVIDiot.

Today I learned: Do NOT Retire in New Mexico

Why should you NEVER retire in New Mexico? Because the government there can detain a senior against his or her will, commit her to a nursing home, seize all of her assets, and use that money to KEEP her in a nursing home, all in the name of keeping her safe with a "guardianship". That's exactly what had happened to Dorris Hamilton, who's 91, and had lived in Las Cruces NM for over 50 years. And she's not alone. 

As reported by the Santa Fe New Mexican news Dorris had lived the same for decades, then one day, her mail stopped coming. Then she's locked out of all of her bank accounts. Then she got a letter stating that a judge had granted an emergency petition to put her in a nursing home. WITHOUT EVER TALKING TO HER OR HER RELATIVES. 

So she drove herself down to the courthouse and trying to ask someone. Where she encountered a police sergeant, who was sympathetic, but a judge's orders were not discretionary. He put her in the back of his cruiser and drove her to a hospital where she was then transported to the nursing. In the meanwhile, her car was towed and sold. Her mobile home was also sold along with her possessions.

So what exactly happened? 

It appears that Dorris' son Rios may have had an accidental hand in what happened to his mother. 

According to Rios, Dorris and he had spoken to an attorney in Las Cruces, CaraLyn Banks, about giving Rios powers of attorney, as Dorris had taken up hoarding, and Dorris realized she is having a bit of diminished capacity, and wanted Rios to handle a part of her life. They went to the attorney to draft such documents. And they had several meetings. 

From there on, the narrative diverged. Rios remembered Banks mentioning that she can find someone who can help clean out his mother's house, but he had made no further commitments. 

Banks, however, apparently came away with a completely different set of instructions, as she petitioned the court for emergency appointment of guardianship over Dorris Hamilton, listing Rios as the petitioner. 

Rios, who lived and worked in NYC, apparently did not think to ask questions as he did receive an email from Banks. He said he believed it was about cleaning up the house, not declaring his mother unfit to live by herself. 

And a few weeks later, Dorris' life was uprooted. 

And this was NOT the first time Banks had done it to seniors and their families in New Mexico. In several cases, a distant child, a local senior, a meeting about the will, and BLAM!  An emergency petition to put a guardianship on the parent. The child denied that guardianship was EVER discussed, much less requested. 

SEVERAL court cases happened where Banks argued, supposedly for the seniors, AGAINST the relatives who denied ever authorizing the petition. Banks argued that the senior should stay in the care of the guardian she had chosen, a company called Advocate Services. Keep in mind, both draw their salary from Dorris' estate... while she's still alive! Your jailer is using your money to keep you in jail against your will! And it's all LEGAL! 

What's worse, the chief guardian of Advocate Services is fond of filing restraining orders against the relatives of the seniors. Fortunately, some reforms in 2018 barred guardians from preventing families from visiting the seniors in question, but the fundamental problem had not been addressed... If the guardianship was appointed by mistake (or fraud), how do you undo it? 

Turns out, you really can't. Guardianship is supposed to be only done to people who are no longer capable of taking care of themselves, and little provision exists to undo a guardianship. Hypothetically, one can petition the court for a review of the guardianship (and it was supposed to be done every 10 years) as per 45-5-307F NMSA (2009). But there is no deadline for the judge to review the petition or any requirement to do it in a timely manner, even though the judge can rubber-stamp an "emergency petition" that uprooted Dorris' life in only 4 days. 

What's really weird is the senior in question has NO SAY in the matter, since s/he was ALREADY judged to be incapacitated. Even the death, resignation, or removal of the guardian will only result in the appointment of a new guardian. Only a judge can undo a guardianship, and remember what happened to Dorris? She never got to see a judge, lost a good percentage of her property, because a judge signed an order, sight unseen, and declared she is no longer fit to live by herself. Now she's living in a place she never wanted to be, her assets dissipated and sold to KEEP her there, and there's no way out... 

And that's why, folks, do NOT retire in New Mexico, at least not with any money. Or they can do this to you.
