    Thank you all so much for your positive response to my story. Thanks especially to @TravisMcEwanCBC and @korysiegers for prompting me and helping me to share it. It’s a bit unnerving to share such an intimate part of our lives, but you all are so kind.

    It is with great sadness that we, Julie’s family, must inform all of you that Julie has traded her earthly clothing for that of the eternal universe. She has passed from this life to the next, and this is what she wanted us to tell you. (1)

    Hi, Alberta 🧵 I’m an end-stage cancer patient, dealing w some of the most difficult decisions I’ll ever make I have to get my lung drained in order to breathe. Doc wants me to come to a hospital ER to do the procedure. But hospital ER’s have Covid outbreaks. #abhealth 1/

    I JUST SAW THIS AND I AM SCREAMING 😭😭🙌🏼🙌🏼❤️❤️ @DanJLevy & everyone at @SchittsCreek - your show carried me through some dark, dark nights dealing with this disease, and laughter was my medicine. Now, at the end, it still lifts and delights me. THANK YOU for this gift!

    I am trapped. If I get delta these lungs are done for. They wouldn’t even treat, based on my condition. Do you see how this WORKS?? Covid vaccine deniers are getting my bed. The one I need to survive a little longer with my children. And puppy. Here they are. 2/

    Also hi hello am I dreaming? @chantalkreviaz just had a 20 minute Facetime with my husband & I, serenading us with her cover of Leaving on a Jet Plane (his fave) & Feels Like Home (my fave.) There were tears. Thank you, Chantal- that was incredibly beautiful & encouraging. ❤️

    DO YOU SEE HOW THIS WORKS, @shandro? DO YOU @jkenney? Do you see the tears I cry agonizing over this decision? Do you see what happens when you disrespect, undermine, & overall TRASH our provincial health care workers? THIS was my worst nightmare. To need the ER now. 3/

    Do you have ANY clue how your lack of empathy, ability or any sort of heart has led to a complete breakdown of our system? OWN IT. If I die because I can’t get this procedure, I want my story to be read in the Legislative Assembly. I want you to apologize to my family. 4/

    And now, because my blood pressure was off the charts to begin with, I have to stop for the night. PLEASE UNDERSTAND EVERY ACTION HAS A CONSEQUENCE. Own it. The stampede was a stupid failure, the start of the fourth wave. Do better. For those who will live on. Do better. -fin

    These are my parents. They are likely going to have to see their daughter go before them. Look, I know you didn’t cause Covid or cancer. But you certainly mishandled it SO BADLY that now people like me may die sooner than we have to. You have screwed up #AbHealth. 5/

    “Cry for a time, however long that may be. Feel the grief you feel, as I allowed myself to do. Lean into the pain of goodbye. But eventually, lift your face towards the sun and allow joyful memories to be the lingering thought. Both and.” (7)
