Editor,<\/em><\/p>\n

This is my story.<\/p>\n

In 1986, during my last pregnancy, I became very sick. I had mono, hyperglycemia, beaver fever and a gall bladder issue. I collapsed.<\/p>\n

Damage to my gall bladder was a result of a medication I received for beaver fever.<\/p>\n

Since then I have struggled with allergies, being ambulanced to the hospital for extreme, and I mean extreme vomiting. Medications I received have made me sick. Family members from the Netherlands have witnessed two vomiting episodes, from foods I have eaten during their holidays with us.<\/p>\n

I could tell you more stories, but these three words are why I am writing: allergies, medications, food.<\/p>\n

I also quit my job as a care aide, when my last mandatory vaccination left my arm in pain for three months.<\/p>\n

Then the pandemic hit.<\/p>\n

Vaccinations were needed, but, when mandatory vaccinations came in, my fear started to build. Will I get a reaction to this vaccine?<\/p>\n

At the moment, I am so thankful that I am retired and I would not loose my job if I honestly felt this was not safe for me.<\/p>\n

If you really care about each other — taking the vaccination to protect others, not so you can keep your job, go travelling, eat out, go to a bar, etc. — then I commend you.<\/p>\n

So do not condemn me. I do have the right to make a choice, because no government, health official, or Canadian knows my story. <\/p>\n

My fear is real. This is why I support the truckers’ movement.<\/p>\n

Respectfully,<\/em><\/p>\n

Shirley Plugboer,<\/em><\/p>\n
