I was a COTA in the nursing and rehab settings during covid. I chose to listen to that still small voice, that said, wait to take this shot. So I waited, under much duress from, coworkers and the like. So many times I was negatively called, all the while showing up, when others couldn't or wouldn't. Covering as a CNA as well as doing my COTA work, working all three shifts at times. And still I waited. I saw more destructive things from that shot from others, our residents, etc., that showed me why, I was led to wait. I had to attend Medical Freedom rallies, fight for my rights to get religious and medical exemptions, which I got. It helped some with the harassment, and let me keep my job. However, I eventually got covid twice, late 2020 and again in early 2022. That 2nd time did me in. By July 5th, 2022, after a hella wkend at work, my daughter took me to the ER, with an episode of, what now believed to be, Transient Global Amnesia, a 24 hr period I dont remember. In all, the 2 covid infections did lasting damage to multiple body systems and July 4th, 2022 ended up being my last day of work, work that I loved, but now triggers me with PTSD! Forced to retire, file for disability and by Dec 2024, I was approved for SSD with issues, medically, neurologically, and emotionally, from Long Covid. The untold financial damage it has done is a major stressor now that only exacerbates everything else. Im so thankful for The Frontline Dr., Dr Stella Immanuel for treating me for Long Covid, it helped in the immediate, but the covid infections had done their damage, that I live with now. I survived by the Grace of God, and His still small voice, and the brave Frontline Dr's, willing to stand by their oath they took, 'to do not harm'. Even tho I didn't take the shot, I don't have the health I had prior to this covid virus. There are countless millions like me. We've all been damaged, traumatized, gaslighted by our own medical community, treated unbelievably horrific. That's why, with the truths, we all knew deep down, has been brought out in the open, this government, the medical and pharmaceutical industry, media pushing the loes and cover up, the Chinese govt covering up their gain of function, lab leak and staying silent as the virus spread, that those of us suffering with it damages, should be compensated, for our finances desimated, our health issues gaslighted by the medical community and the trauma of being harassed, maligned, lied about even having to leave our jobs, for the now, dealing with LC. I dont know if this side of heaven, we'll see justice. But I leave that to the powers that be, to the legal system, the groups fighting for us and The Lord. I leave it to Him to help me heal, forgive, tell my story and pray for others. Prayerfully, we won't, and our children, their children will never go through this again! God bless you for this platform to potentially be helped and heard finally! Much regards, Valerie J Woodson
