Me, Myself, and I

Hi, my name is Renee. I was born and raised in Edmonton, Alberta before coming to the beautiful province of Ontario. I first moved here in 2003 and I love it here.

I was raised to believe that we are all equal; but now as a 58-year old female, I am seeing the opposite. I thought people were supposed to be kind, accepting, thoughtful, loving, inclusive. What I have seen pretty much my whole life; I have never "fit in". I didn't then, and still don't.

I have experienced all sorts of abuse. Sexual abuse by a babysitter, dismissiveness, ignoring, cooercive control, harassment, dissemination of hate towards me by spreading narratives that I am somehow a bad person. I am NOT!

My whole life I have chosen to be a good person, and to improve in all areas of development. I wanted to be 'well rounded' person. You see, I wanted to be a person with integrity, known for my compassion, kindness, authentic care - without expectation in return. Most have abused these traits of mine, taken advantage, or just spread lies about me. And now, I am being harassed because people are not able to see my disabilities.

I am asked, "Who is harassing you?", and all I can say sounds cray cray; but my lived experiences are not up for debate. As a researcher who has the fundamentals of data collection, unbiased an incredible brain that sorts through the bullshit. I will call myself, The Data Wrangler. I literrtally sleep on issues and wake with solutions.

In their campaigns against me, they act like 3-year olds in the playground whining because they don't want to be accountable to their actions. They act like the TRUTH is a popularity contest; when in fact, we know that is not!

In spite of how people have treated me, I still try to remain positive and not allow them to evoke another reaction out of me. But I am human. Even I have bad moments. I mean over 14 investigations have cleared me of their false allegations; and yet they are permitted to continute to do so. I have said things in my car as I was under duress. I do not believe it is ethical to harass someone to evoke anger and then use it, tailor it to special interest groups, and the community. They have manipulated my friendships, life, and I want to put it to an end.

They are now trying to Paint me as Crazy, But we know, that is not true. Okay, well, maybe a little bit, but that is so I can see BS a mile away. In the words of Judge Judy, "Don't piss on my leg and tell me it is raining." In other words, don't harass me and then call my reaction to your abuses as 'mental health issues." Or better yet, that I am experiencing psychosis. Again, we know that is not true!

My health issues are serious, and I am done being a nice guy (girl). I am respectfully demanding the patient bill of rights be instituted in Health Law, I want an end to abuses of power, position, authority, and influence; most of all, I want to develop, The Patient's Advocate, which would investigate experiences to mitigate the issues, and create win-win outcomes.
