Hi Holly The story has a great interest for me. One of my heroes growing up in Vancouver was a runner named Harry Winston Jerome. Ryan Farrington in a way was lucky, he knew what was causing his muscle pain, back in the forties nothing was known about Dystonia.
I could run like the wind for a short distance, I was the anchor runner in relay races during my school years. Playing baseball I could not make it past second base.
In the late eighties I had a exercise bike in my living room. One winter day after three days twisted up in pain I was so bored and needed a distraction from the pain and muscle seizers I pulled myself on to the exercise bike. I could peddle it if I leaned forward and rested my arms on the handle bars.
I went on a hunt for a one speed old styled peddle bike and started riding it when I was unable to walk. I would go from telephone pole to pole hanging on until the pain eased up to allow me to continue. I always started into the wind, the wind was what got me back home. By the end of summer I could ride anywhere I wanted and returned to part time work.
When I seen the doctor in Vancouver I was in my chair and told the doctor that I could ride a bike. When he told me he knew of others with dystonia that can ride a bike, run and not be able to walk and walk perfectly backwards and not be able to walk forward I was no longer alone.
Like Ryan Farrington I am in the 10 per cent of dystonia suffers who respond dramatically to the drug dopamine. The effects took effect within half an hour of my taking the medication.
I am going to continue to expose Justice Hrabinsky and Madam Justice Dovell. They are judicial misfits who think they are above the law. I will seek justice for myself and my mother, the Ross children and Johanna Lucas and do my part in seeing that judges who left two 8 year old girls to be raped and who persecuted Johanna Lucas are removed from the bench.
Hi James,

Hi James,
ReplyDeleteI think if Ryan meets you, he would be proud of the injustices you are exposing! Take care my friend!
