Update: June 23, 2025
My sword has arrived and is being securely stored. I will receive further direction regarding this next Monday with Dr. Rogers, the Client & Family Relations Team Manager, and the Schizophrenia North Unit Manager. I was asked not to perseverate on this issue, and I was asked to wait patiently til next Monday to bring the matter up again. I appreciate the clear instruction.
I had a wonderful conversation with the Pro Bono Law Society of Ontario. They gave me some clear advice regarding my situation, once I described it. The lawyer I spoke with was very clear, and I appreciated his time. He told me I should speak with JusticeNet in order to get a lawyer with reduced or waived fees for my Form 33 appeal, and possibly my Form 4 and D appeals. If Mark Handelmen (my lawyer at present for matters concerning the Form 4 and Form D writes a poor opinion letter for the Form D appeal, Legal Aid Ontario will not provide a certificate). I was told it would be illegal, given the current scenario, for the staff at The Royal to inject me or otherwise force me to take pharmakeia until the appeal process for the Forms D, 4, and 33 are resolved.
I need to wait until next month (July) to receive my $149 a month from ODSP before I can register with JusticeNet. However, if Mr. Handelman writes a good opinion letter, and Legal Aid Ontario provides me with a certificate, it is possible I could find another lawyer to handle that specific matter (the appeal in my name only for the Form D to the Superior Court of Justice) until I find one through Justice Net.
Because I am on a Form 33 (declared mentally incapable) I legally require a lawyer to represent me.
The Patient Ombudsman wrote me back today, and I am content with their response. I will reflect on their advice.
I am still waiting to hear back from the CPSO regarding the complaint I made surrounding the seven psychiatrists involved in my situation.
My nurse made it clear I must wait patiently for Dr. Rogers to return next Monday. I will be patient: it is a fruit of the Holy Spirit.
I found some nice instrumental beats, and am sorting through my collection of hymns, working on my new personal hymn book.
I was crying/mourning yesterday, but I received comfort.
By God's grace I am placing my trust and hope in my Abba, Christ Jesus, and the Holy Spirit.
I thirst for justice, and I will be satisfied. (Matthew Chapter 5)
The Beatitudes are getting me through right now. And, some creative art therapy. Hallelujah!
