An Idaho nurse and mother of two special needs children has died of COVID-19 after refusing to get vaccinated — and urging her loved ones not to get the shot, either.
Natalie Rise, 46, died on August 22, shortly after her unvaccinated mother was also taken to the hospital with COVID.
ICU nurses woke Natalie’s mother up from a medically-induced coma to tell her of her daughter’s passing.
Now Natalie’s brother, Daryl Rise, has quit his job to take care of her two children — and insists that it was misinformation and ‘falling into negative social media’ that killed her.
Natalie Rise, 46, died on August 22, shortly after her unvaccinated mother was also taken to the hospital with COVID
Her brother Daryl said Natalie had fallen pray to ‘misinformation’ and ‘negative social media and bloggers, YouTubers’ about vaccines
Natalie, a registered nurse from Coeur d’Alene, had worked as a home health care worker before quitting to be a stay-at-home-mom to her 10-year-old special-needs twins.
The twins, a son and a daughter, have Joubert syndrome, a genetic disorder that usually includews lack of muscle control, abnormal breathing patterns, sleep apnea, abnormal eye and tongue movements, and low muscle tone.
Her son has undegone several major brain surgeries.
But despite her RN training and two children with medical conditions under her care, Natalie refused to get vaccinated against COVID-19.
‘She was telling me not to get vaccinated,’ her brother Daryl told CNN. ‘I think it was from misinformation, I think it was falling into negative social media and bloggers, YouTubers.’
Natalie said there hadn’t been enough studies on the vaccine.
Several of her family members did seem to listen to her pleas against the jab, including her mother, who is also unvaccinated.
She leaves behind 10-year-old twins with Joubert syndrome, a genetic disorder that has led to several major brain surgeries for one of the children
ICU nurses woke Natalie’s mother Nancy up from a medically-induced coma to tell her of her daughter’s passing
But in early August, Natalie and Daryl’s mother, Nancy, began feeling ill and having trouble breathing. On August 9, she was hospitalized and then intubated and put in medically-induced coma.
‘I miss my mom right now,’ Natalie wrote on Facebook on August 12. ‘I want to call her, but she’s unable to talk because she’s in a “paralyzed” state at the moment on the ventilator, her lungs are trying to heal. She’s hanging in there!’
Natalie felt sick soon after her mother was hospitalized and also went to Kootenai Health’s emergency room, where she was admitted to the ICU as well.
‘[I] just can’t breathe very well at this point,’ she wrote. ‘Very scary and claustrophobic. This is horrible.’
‘I’m hoping it won’t be very long [that I’m hospitalized]. I’m hoping all it will take is some IV fluids, steroids, rendesevir…’ she added.
‘I was in shock. I didn’t know what’s going to happen or what was going to happen with them and who was going to take care of the children,’ Daryl told KXLY.
‘They thought that this wouldn’t happen to them. That they were protected by masks and hand sanitation. It doesn’t protect you like the vaccine would,’ he added.
While her mother was in a coma, Natalie died ‘right down the hall’ from her. Nurses woke up the older woman to tell her.
Daryl quit his job to take care of the kids during the week, while Natalie’s sister and her husband will take them on weekends
The day after Natalie died, Daryl got his first shot
‘Mom didn’t even know that Natalie was in the hospital, and Natalie had written a letter the night before, to mom hoping she’d be able to go down in the critical care COVID unit to be able to see her, but that never happened,’ Daryl said.
Daryl had fallen pray to some misinformation aboud vaccines, too. He had become ill with COVID last year, and didn’t think he needed to get vaccined — but the day after Natalie died, he got his first shot.
‘It was the hardest decision of my life, you know, am I doing right by God? Am I doing right by Natalie?’ he said. ‘And I got it out of fear.’
‘We’re hearing from all these doctors and professionals who have all this education and they’re basically begging us to get the vaccination,’ he went on.
‘The people that are telling us not to, they’re not as educated as these doctors, and they’re following social media. It doesn’t matter if we’re a donkey or an elephant. It is a personal choice, but the numbers don’t lie.’
His mother, however, is still unsure whether she will get the shot.
Since Natalie’s death, Daryl has quit his job as a truck driver to take care of his neice and nephew.
The children will spend weeks with Daryl to remain in their school district, while Natlaie’s twin sister, Jennifer, and her husband will care for them on weekends.
Mama forgot to tell you to love freedom more than slavery.
Too bad...
the shedding of this virus by the vaxxed is something to be feared.....they did a study of healthcare workers and they carried 250x the viral load found on the unvaxxed.....
Including the Sharyl Atkisson story I listened to today. Husband/wife murder/suicide, reported as such by the local coroner but both changed to “covid-19” in the state database to her shock and outrage.
I believe even the CDC admitted most of the 650,000 deaths were with covid and not solely from covid.
But fear proners gotta fear pron.
In before someone ask if she took Ivermectin, Vitamin C and 290,000 mgs of D3, and wore a Garlic Necklace………
I am on another site, where almost everyone is anti vax. But now they are becoming anti health care as well. One poster said he was going to stop taking his blood pressure meds of thirteen years because to renew the meds he would have to wear a mask to the doctors office. So he was going to stop taking bp meds and try homeopathic remedies instead. Other posters chimed and encouraged this.
When I suggested that regular visits to the doctor for health and cancer screenings were a good idea, I was told that I 1) live in fear, 2) like to tell other people what to do, and 3) want to climb into the cattle car.
People are going nuts over this.
Huh?!?
Actually what we have is shots to spread this.
Don't think God had much to do with it.
Agreed, especially if the 650,000 deaths by COVID number is to be believed. What pisses me off about the pro-vaccine crowd is they never criticize China, WHO, or Fauci. Even on this forum.
>> 650,000 dead Americans is not fear porn,
It’s a $hitload of money for the hospitals @ $38k per COVID corpse.
BTW, have you seen the flu numbers?
But Mama, that's where the fun is!
MSN’s home page tab has a daily updated story of fear porn related to Covid. For the past month -DAILY- they post a story about some person dying of Covid who refused the vax (sure!). I saw this story pop up today and sure enough it’s a perfect garbage story for fools who fall for the fear.
They don’t even try to hide the agenda anymore.
Well, the Medicos all mostly rolled over into Marxist Medicine.
Their collective cred is totally shot. They only have themselves to blame. [Perhaps Christian Scientists are now correct?]
They woke her up from an induced COMA to tell her her daughter died.
Now wasnt that nice of them
I’m sure they are about to run a story where a vaxxed person passed..which is happening all over the world..because fairness.
Never been more convinced that this jab is spreading covid like crazy...and the forces behind the push are pure evil.
I happily took Trump’s vaccine, but I would never push it on others. Bottom line is that if you’re vaccinated you have statistically nothing to fear from the unvaccinated. And if you’re fat and eat like crap and don’t go out in the sun, you deserve what you get.
They have a genetic mutation resulting in Joubert Syndrome. Reading is fundamental.
Made no sense to me either.
