Dr. Ellis whom was to oversee the short duration treatment of the second tumor with a single blast of Gamma Knife has called Patricia at least seven times seeking her cooperation. She isn't going to give it to him. She doesn't apply credibility to any of this mess.
I was able to facilitate a 'second opinion' from a past surgeon, Dr. Janet Bay of Riverside Hospital in Columbus, Ohio. Dr. Bay was the woman that saved Patricia from 'traditional' thoughts regarding astrocytomas. Dr. Bay provided Patricia with a quality of life that now the legal society of North Carolina has failed to uphold in the face of a challenge that would require them to find compassion through law.
For those interested.
Patricia does not want her teeth pulled out of her head. She wants dental work. She has the monies to pay for any dental work she wants. She is not a 'charity' case in the face of Medicare only possiblities. I also find the 'attitude' surrounding her care completely repulsive. If this is the type of attitude the elderly and disabled face in this country than it's very poor care indeed.
Patricia needs to be saved from herself. Her name is Patricia Zambo and there sits somewhere in the office of the North Carolina Attorney Generals Office an envelope containing information from me regarding the vulnerabilities of her decisions and the failings of parents now estranged from their daughter. I opened the hand written letter with the words, "Please save my sister's life." Her father is so out of touch with her needs that he is no longer 'fit' to be her limited guardian.
There is no sense of having guardians that simply wait for the end to come to 'cash in' on monies held in trust for the care of those needing vigilance.
Patricia will cooperate with care when she is made to cooperate. She does not believe she is going to die. She thinks in complete dysfunction of her personality disorder that everyone is being paid off by those now in control of her money. She is a mess.
I have come forth to all parties including our parents, the youngest sibling of this group, Judith whom is a traffic court hearing officer in North Carolina and considered the 'golden haired girl' by parents that deserved at least one daughter truly in PERFECT condition for their 'putting up' with their other two autonomous and liberated daughters.
I have called Ms. Brinkey and while I expected her to be interested in all I had to say now as she did last year, her statement to me was, "I am Tom Zambo's attorney." She dismissed me and all I had to say as easy as the bad weather report on the AM news.
I appealed to local magistrate offices only to have them tell me that Mr. Zambo was to come forward for assistance.
I have talked to police officers whom were called when I insisted on being understood by Mr. Zambo. Their advise was to get copies of the proceedings from Clerk of the Courts and seek legal advocacy.
That is what I did.
I gave up on my family to love their difficult daughters enough. I went to the public records department, got copies of the legal record where the decision was rendered and sent every thing I could come up with including an extensive letter to the State Attorney General.
I don't care what happens to others of my family that see 'an end' as a fiscal reward to negligence and lack of compassion. I want Patricia to have longevity.
My last statement to the State Attorney General of North Carolina in my letter was, "...today at UNC-Chapel Hill they are infusing 'biologicals' (a genetic medicine product) on Step Down Units to prevent lung transplant rejection. That was not a reality a few short months ago. I don't know what the future for Patricia is. The Gamma Knife treatment will provide years if not a decade or more of time to her life and in that time there may be a complete cure for her current malady. But, unless we act to protect her now, that reality will never be hers.
I would never have gone to this exteme if it were not needed. Pat needs to be reevaluated by Drs. Wilson and Ellis at Baptist/Wake Forest Medical Center which was recommended by Dr. Janet Bay. She needs treatment for her tumor, she needs dental work and she needs the dignity of her life returned to her.
Patricia is Roman Catholic and attends as regularly as she can, St. Paul's in Greensboro. If Patricia's remaining coarse in life is death, then she needs to go to Rome at least once in her life and 'kick ass' with the Pope for the remaining days of her life if it can be arranged. But, to allow her to innocently deteriorate in an efficiency at a Suburban Extended Stay until she dies is a complete travesty of law, society and 'so called' compassion that no one ever thought would result to a woman that lived upto every expectation of American standards of success.
Stereotypes in any society are dangerous mired with pitfalls. Patricia and her misguided 'social angles' are proof of same.
