Standing/honor..

Some times its more important if, and how, you stand up for yourself than if you “win” – 11-29-07

 

 

I’m giving no details, but on 11-27-07, we attempted to get protection orders from three individuals in the mult community.  We were unsuccessful, but lost the biggest one by a hair. 

 

I am writing this on behalf of my system for a few reasons…

 

 

1 - As various people here attempted to forewarn certain individuals repeatedly because they were so loved that, if they did not cease, due to our dire medical circumstances, the situation could likely be taken out of our hands by any of the health professionals surrounding us (we are now in a desperate fight for our life for over a year now, with Home Health and an aide).  We did our damnest to warn loved ones that they might take action whether we wanted them to or not.  One of the most maligned persons of this place, Sharon cried and begged a number of times to medical professionals not to take action. 

 

WE DID NOT TURN ANYONE IN.  It was one of the medical professionals around us who did take the action, still over our objections and with Sharon crying and begging no.  It was done over our heads because the legal responsibility of the medical persons around us now is to save/prolong our life – not to protect people we love and keep forgiving when they track us down and/or contact us over and over to draw us in, only to be attacked again.  From the point of which one of the medical professionals surrounding us, attempting to save/prolong our life, did turn the situation in, we had no choice but to do as we were instructed to do. 

 

 

2 – To point out that we have kept Drake’s word and not attacked nor fought with anyone in public for over a year.  When persons of this place, Drake and Sharon, made public apologies last year to anyone they had ever hurt, or been part of hurting, in the past, they meant it.  When Drake promised on behalf of this overall system, that we would NEVER engage in public fighting and warfare with particular loved ones again, he meant it. 

 

When a person/s is truly sorry for wrongs they’ve done in the past, they show it by their behavior. Trust me, there have been MANY times in this past 1+ years in which its been all we could do not to fire back publicly - or at least attempt to defend ourself.  But, we haven’t.  And we don’t intend to start now. 

 

Again, on behalf of my system, we apologize to anyone anybody here has ever publicly hurt – whether during arguments or flame wars or confrontations of whatever sort – whether hurting someone by writing publicly about our pain and distress – by whatever means, we are deeply sorry.  And, we have proven it by our public behavior this past year of NOT fighting publicly no matter what. 

 

Again, when Drake said last year we would engage in these things no more, he  meant it on behalf of us all here because he is so highly respected by us that we honor his wishes in this regard.

 

 

3 – We are writing this to encourage anyone who has been stalked and/or harrassed, threatened, slandered, terrorized, been accused of horrific things… that you don’t have to “fight back” online – as our attackers have repeatedly dared us to do since we swore to do no more.  And, you don’t have to stay defeated and hide, traumatized, if you cannot get the situation resolved over a reasonable period of time.  You can stand up for yourself through the system – which is what we did – albeit only after we were forced to. 

 

 

4 - Tho we “lost” on 11-27-07, we “won” cause we were told that every single one of these cases across the country which happens now – win or lose – goes in to the pile toward making laws for adults, governing the internet, to tame the wild west atmosphere – as has finally fairily recently been achieved to protect children. 

 

 

5 – Drake – the most maligned and attacked person of this place - was NO part of ANY of this victim protection situation.  None.  Zero.  Zip.  Nada.  He is too destroyed by his personal losses - both of his family, and of the sudden recent death of his dog.  And, he is too damaged by his absolute conviction that he is completely to blame for everything.  No one is ever completely to blame for everything, but there’s no convincing him of that.

 

 

6 - Following directions for these past months since a medical professional in the group of them which is attempting to save and prolong our life because, due to our dire physical condition, it took us months to gather the information required of us, then a couple more months to go thru the process -

 

but following ALL directions from the authorities from the time one of our medical caregivers turned the situation in, we closed everything, and have stayed out of sight.  Now, we are taking our life back.

 

We are lonely.  We are disabled, and homebound.  We miss interacting with friends, playing games, having a social life.  For years, our social life was the internet. 

 

Besides, we refuse to be “disappeared” any longer.  Virtually all of us who front now are triggered as hell by the whole hiding/being disappeared thing, and will not continue to live this way. 

 

So…

 

We are opening our account back up cause it has deep personal meaning to us, and we will not give it up.

 

We are re-opening the Rise8 MySpace - altered in to a public version. 

 

If and when we choose to, we will write what we want to write in public. 

 

We are opening Pogo back up so that we are not invisible. 

 

We may re-install Yahoo messenger, altho haven’t decided on that one yet since all us were uncomfortable with Yahoo cause of the no-sound thing, and we only did that for one very loved child – and she was taken from her father. 

 

We are removing the tracker from the Rise8 MySpace – partly cause we find those things freaky, and secondly cause using one just for the while we did proved our point.  Anyone who wishes to view it whenever, go for it.  Going to a public site, or a public journal is NOT stalking.  If you wish to view it, do it.

 

 

If persons wish to contact us with good intentions, it is well-known where TC resides on the internet. 

 

If persons contact us with negative intentions, do not expect your mail to even be opened.  If we open it, and are duped, and it is negative/attacking of us, expect it to be forwarded to the authorities. 

 

If you IM, and we do not recognize your handle, or believe you are IMing with negative intentions, you will be blocked.

 

 

We have made our point.  Sometimes, what appears to the eye is not what is.  We have not cowered and run out of “guilt” or “fear”.  We have been fighting for our life.  And, we have stood for what, and who, we believed in this entire time.  We have kept our word to never engage in online attacking or fighting of any sort again.  We have stood up for ourself in concordance with the direction of the medical professionals caring for us. 

 

 

One last point… I said that Drake was NO part of any of this victim protection thing, and that is the God’s truth.  Sharon (whom someone said last year “if Sharon is a protector, I am a fairy”), Cody, a few others, and I did what was required of us once the situation was taken out of our hands.  Why?  Cause we had no choice – the choice was taken from us by those who would not stop – and cause there are people who truly love us, need us, want us - and we intend to live every single second God will give us for them.

 

 

11-29-07 – LJ – Gypsy… For the Record – Some times its more important if, and how, you stand up for yourself than if you “win”

 

Oh there is one last thing.  One thing we must say.  We have a right to say this.

 

We find it deeply disturbing that a person who claims to hate us so, and has been so open and wild and voracious in her attacks and claims against us, is naming her daughter a female version of our deceased son’s name, which everyone who knows us well knows what it is. 

 

And, to make it more disturbing, the child’s middle name will be a version of our dog, who was known personally by this person - which yeah she was all our dog and loved us all, but EVERYBODY knew that was Drake’s dog - our beloved Annie, not yet even 3, who died recently within weeks of the onset of symptoms and diagnosis from, ironically enough since she was so tied to Drake, cancer of the heart and lungs.
