Mass Insanity

I can't remember the last time checking the headlines for the day when I could read a news article covering something positive and encouraging about the world. These days I have to dig into obscure posts by part-time writers covering developments in their chosen profession. Virtually everything in the mainstream channels indicates the leaders of nations are mad, and like a virus, is spreading throughout the population with people forcing others to do their bidding, sometimes at the end of a gun barrel.

One indicator of mass insanity is the state of medicine. The frequency of "false flag" diseases announced in the press has multiplied since the HIV scare of the 80s. Despite the mounting evidence to the contrary, the populace is being subjected to a barrage of PR campaign for vaccinations of every conceivable kind.

Another indicator is the forced imposition of medical treatments that have a high fatality rate. Cancer treatment tops the list, having become the most lucrative of medical procedures administered. Children suffering from cancer, and even some adults, are being forced into these expensive procedures which hardly have a success rate better than non-treatment. And the call for more donations to the cause continues, while the chief cause of cancer is nutrition--the consumption of refined sugar and HFCS known to feed the malignancy for over a half century packaged into virtually every product on the grocery shelves.

While nothing new in my lifetime, this forced medical treatment has come home to the family. A relative of my wife is 89 years old. A few years ago he developed diabetes and became incapable of driving himself around. Being a physically active person who loved working with his hands and being outdoors this development evacuated the rest of his life force. With nothing to look forward to but his imminent demise he tried accelerating the process by discontinuing his drugs. His kidneys shut down and hospice stepped in to manage regular dialysis. His wife who had been trying to care for him began exhibiting signs of dementia which has progressed almost to the point of non-recognition of family members. When he had a heart attack recently, the hospice nurse spent over fifteen minutes trying to revive him. Ultimately she succeeded, but he shows signs of having lost much of his brain functions. The couple now in an assisted living facility, he cannot recall much of his life, nor can he assert control of his daily activities. He is in pain constantly, connected to intravenous feeds and machines to keep him alive. But he has nothing to live for. Everyone is striving to make him "comfortable", including his children who thought this solution to his advantage.

But there is nowhere he can go in this modern world where he can simply lie down and expire. Knowing their deteriorating condition, a year ago we planned to visit them one last time this summer. At this point we both consider his departure from this massive, expensive effort to "make him comfortable" before we arrive to be his last gift. But he has no rights, no one will honor his desire to expire. They both no longer have the mental acuity to demand it. Meanwhile the $$$ keep rolling in to the medical coffers.
