Americana

"America, Canada, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia"

Americana

October 2014: Welcoming visitors from a region once governed by the former U.S.S.R. offered us a unique opportunity to share the essence of Americana over their month-long stay, exploring diverse sites across America, Canada, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia. Their experience was deeply enriching, evident in their heartfelt message, which expressed gratitude for the memories created during their time with you: "Hello Valerie, Anthony, and family. We have received the package. It is a miraculous recollection of a wonderful holiday with you. The flag I have sent is a rare relic of a once-existing state." This thoughtful gesture underscored the exchange of culture and friendship that transcended borders and histories.

New visitors, who were once under the governance of the former U.S.S.R, were introduced to
Americana and an array of sites within America, Canada and West Virginia during their one month stay. They returned home with the most positive of impressions. "Hello Valerie, Anthony and family. We have received the package. It is a miraculous recollection of a wonderful holiday with You. The flag which I have sent is a rare relic of a once existing state".

 
Decisions

While thirteen years of navigating challenges with the Partners, and later Tri-Partners, significantly influenced our decision to move, it was not the sole reason; the response to my Geo-Surgical Timeline from January 2014 also played a vital role in shaping our path forward. Adding to the complexity, two relatives—one from my wife's family and one from mine—remarked independently, "I work hard and was smart too," about our success, a chilling coincidence that emerged a decade apart during some of our most vulnerable times. Their comments, echoing similar sentiments, chipped away at our resolve and raised unsettling questions about what type of fraternity could shape such phrasing ten years apart? Though these cumulative experiences weren't the primary cause for our relocation, they certainly felt like the proverbial icing on the cake, compelling us to seek a fresh start.

We Move

July of 2015: Relocating to North Carolina for a fresh start presented its own challenges, particularly as my wife's experience with Levofloxacin created significant stress, leading to her medical care devolving into a medical system "hot potato" scenario characterized by fear and uncertainty. Her struggles are notably detailed in the narratives "Harsh Realities" and "How Could This Have Been Allowed?" as well as in "This Is Not Cancer". reflecting the gravity of her health dilemmas. Additionally, her frightening ER Visit in May 2021 further intensifying our concerns about her well being.

 
2024: Despite our efforts, the Charité in Berlin refused to provide my wife's post-operative pathologies from October 2020, even though they had made such information available to her hospital mate, Navalny. In a significant twist, the FDA acknowledged the underlying cause of her ongoing health dilemmas in February of 2024, offered some long-awaited clarity after a prolonged and distressing journey.
