COVID, Strokes, and Trust
American Thinker.com ^ | November 13, 2021 | Mark Landsbaum

Those who run the medical establishment and government insist everyone must be vaccinated. As always with such Draconian tyranny, they tell those who object that, “It’s for your own good” and regurgitate tyrants’ favorite meme, “It’s for the greater good.”

I refuse to obey such commands. I am determined to avoid a stroke, a leading cause of death. Someone in America has a stroke every 40 seconds. Every four minutes, someone dies of stroke, 795,000 a year. But a stroke can be worse than death, as my mother’s experience demonstrated.

At the age of 65, mom had a massive stroke, which had been expected her entire life because of a congenital malformation of blood vessels in her head. After days of lying unconscious in a hospital bed, the family decided to pull the plug and let death have its way. As my sister and father entered mom’s hospital room with the doctor, mom opened her eyes. Everyone decided not to pull the plug on the mechanisms keeping mom alive. That would have been murder.

Mom eventually was weaned off the IVs and breathing assistance, but she never again moved, other than the ability to use one arm and nod or shake her head.

We transferred Mom to a nursing home where she talked a lot, but no one could understand a word she spoke other than two phrases that for some reason she was still able to utter clearly: “I love you” and “Bad boy.” The latter she seemed to reserve for caregivers who fed, cleaned and attended to her every need. Because she couldn’t.

I have AFib and I’m Xarelto to help prevent strokes. The last thing I’m doing is taking a “vaccine” with the side effect of causing strokes.

Your mother died of an AVM (arterial-venous malformation) a congenital defect. I know a lot more people who have died of COVID than strokes. The best way to prevent strokes is control your B/P. Your personal experience, no matter how tragic has no relevance to the vaccine side effects. My twenty year old cousin died instantly from a cerebral AVM while in a food store check out line. I haven’t avoided supermarkets since then. Calm down, your going to have a stroke.

"Calm down, your going to have a stroke."

I hope you have a nice day as well.

Had major surgery two months ago with no issues. They asked if I was vaxxed and I said, “NO.” It was left at that. They didn’t even ask me if I wanted to be vaxxed.

I was in hospital for a procedure a few months back. I played along with the masking getting in, but when in the hospital bed I said to the staff, “Wait a minute, I’m the patient here” and took it off until time to leave.

No one said a thing and we all survived.
