I’m not a doctor either, but a Family Nurse Practitioner.

The first instance of "triple anti-coagulation" appears as "triple antique coagulation." Auto-correct?

I'm not a doctor but sometimes I have to play one among those who have problems that don't surf all your great stuff. Keep up the great work and never let the eternal flame be extinguished.

The FLCCC are producing *real* science; there is no hype, and no hidden agenda. The obstacles faced by society in a post COVID world are enormous: the medical establishment in a near petrified state of tunnel vision; Big Pharma, committed to vaccinating the entire universe; and MSM propaganda, invested in keeping us uniformed and lashing out at each other. The FLCCC is a light in this abysmal darkness.

Un-informed? Uniform in our thinking, absolutely!

Wonderful story and great reminder to seek out the FLCCC for all the latest. So happy that life has been kind to you of late. Was reminded of how turbulent adolescence can be not just for me and my siblings but for my own child as well. Life can be quite hard but it's so worth the trouble.

I just found your Substack today, but I look forward to following along. It is amazing how our family trauma can impact us throughout life. I am glad you had the opportunity to have that conversation at 54. Sounds like your practice is full of informed consent and discussion of alternatives - that is the type of practice we should all want! God bless.

thank you Scott for sharing your story. All of us have them, and many of us had a bumpy ride.

I am proud of your efforts growing up.

The most difficult parts of family life stem from the generational aspect.

There has to be respect. You seemed to be a very mindful and aware of your immediate surroundings, or what is it? in general, your adapting to those differences. That is pretty cool.

I also enjoyed the older generation when I was a teen.

I am grateful for everything you share.

For me, you hit the nail on the head with this statement: “My story is not that different than those of hundreds of other readers, who have felt disconnected and isolated from their families, friends, and neighbors as they become aware of the real dynamics behind this pandemic.” It’s as if we’re all being tapped on the shoulder at random times to go pull back the curtain that exposes the wizard, but what determines when (or if) we each do that is harder to pinpoint. I actually had a conversation about this with someone yesterday. We made the unexpected discovery that, within each of our respective families, the family members previously deemed by the group to be the “most conservative” are now being deemed the most radical based on their willingness to depart from conventional wisdom regarding the dynamics behind the pandemic and the medical treatment of it. It seems counterintuitive, but this shift ended up proving true for both of us. Perhaps living further from society’s middle in makes it easier to see the forest for the trees.

My sense is that the difficult experiences of your formative years have left you with a depth of empathy greater than most. No doubt your patients benefit from it, but hopefully not at a great cost to yourself. Your “decision to care for the people in front of you who want your help” is probably one of the sanest things I’ve heard in a long time despite also being tragic. From the conflict you described, the inherent pressure to be perfect within the medical field has now been amplified by the schism forming between the medical professionals on opposite sides of the “pandemic dynamics”. Sadly, some colleagues who are still drinking the conventional kool-aid are probably looking for opportunities to defend their own choices by attempting to prove you wrong rather than themselves right.

I am so happy to have found you and your Substack. I just watched the FLCCC presentations at the 2024 Healthcare Revolution conference. Such incredible information presented by leaders in recognizing and treating long COVID and long vax. I am an RN. If I were younger I would have loved to be part of a practice like the one you and Pierre have created. Nurses contribute a different perspective on the delivery of care. Most nurses have spent lots of time 'at the bedside' totally involved in caring for sick and injured people. There is a kind of intimacy there that is such a privilege to be part of with another human., to witness their suffering and work to bring some comfort. I was glad to hear you describe your practice as 'nurse-driven'. Your patients will benefit immensely from that. These years of the 'pandemic' have been hard ones. My husband and I never got the vaccine and have never had COVID. I guess we represent some kind of control group ;). We have been ostracized, criticized and bullied. My worst fears are being realized now as I watch one friend or family member after another develop a fib, cancer, heart failure, dysautonomia, GI distress, memory issues, and so much more. I fear it is only going to get worse for a while. I am sorry to hear you are vaccine-injured. God bless you, Scott, for all you and your colleagues are doing.
