So Sorry you have to go through this psychopathic brainwashing with your son, Rima. You hide it well but I know that has to hurt... right in the heart. Just know you are loved by many and your son knows not what he does. :-(
So sorry to hear what your son thinks! Astounding really. I hope he had a good mother in you and it’s sad to think he could think something so horrific about you?!?! Heartbreaking. May the Lord above bring healing in this precious relationship! 😢🙏🏻
LOVED the dancing video!!! Delightful! I couldn't get the YouTube video with your son playing the piano to play. Your son thinks like my younger son. My older son thinks like me. : )
Like you, I love dancing. But my experience re the jabs is, luckily, unlike yours. My favorite place to go dancing was closed during the clotshot times, and when it re-opened had no requirement regarding clotchot status. Shedding ... that's the danger to the un-clotshotted.
Wow, I resonated strongly with your post for several reasons. Number 1....I am a dance fiddler, have played contras and squares for going on 40 years. I moved to Tucson in 2016 and soon thereafter began playing for Tucson contras. My name is Marc Rennard. When all hell broke loose arund early 2021 I started limiting my mingling in social settings, and then much to my surprise got sick with "something" that put me in the hospital for almost 2 weeks. My symptoms were NOT classic covid, and I am proud to say I never took any vaccine whatsoever. Even to the present day i do not mingle socially as I once did so freely. But life seems to go on. I run my own violin shop here in Tucson and stay busy with associated demands.
Thank you for all your work in educating us and raising awareness over these strange years. Have followed your work for years.....
Thank you, Marc. Tucson? You are in Tucson? Let's have coffee! Hoo Boy! People! People who don't start looking for the exit as soon as the conversation moves past the weather (it's hot).
I can commiserate. I quit playing Scandinavian music when my longtime friend demanded our group mask, and then the Daughters of Norway demanded masks and vaccines for their meetings. I used to play their marches and songs, and music for the Skandia Fest and Lucia/Jul celebrations. I have my memories...recently I've been invited to play some gigs...mostly few and far between.
The schism in your relationship is heartbreaking. Some small solace could be that he appears to know deeply your love for him and on some level recognize his self-imposed significant loss in order to hurl vituperative remarks. He knows you won't stop being available to him. In my therapy practice I've seen friends and family members turn around over time as their fear diminishes. The psychological carnage from the Plandemic is egregious.
I just wanted to reach out and tell you I know exactly how that feels. My adult son is also fully jabbed and boosted, even though his fiance chose not to get it, he didn't tell her he did at first, and they continued to have sex, and now she's dealing with GUILLAN BARRE virus and is now unable to walk unassisted. She's less than 25 years old. Of course, I'm not allowed to lay eyes on her at all bc I feel he thinks I might tell her how to get better. But it's heart breaking!!
Excellent videos -- joyful activities -- full of music, dancing...and fun! Thank you.
Sad, though, that you share the pain of many of us today with highly IQ intelligent and very successful adult offspring who do not share the same perspectives or experiences of the world. In that vein, though, it's very good if they're still alive, healthy, and functioning well (and that we are, too, whether they interact with us in daily life...or not.)
The contra dancing video, filmed in Glen Echo, Maryland, fifteen years ago, is a very poignant reminder of what a wonderful childhood your son must have experienced, overall, to have been able to express such developed gifts -- with his obvious love of music. (I also lived in Bethesda, while teaching...for a time, with family in the D.C. area, too.)
He did have a wonderful childhood and was a wonderful child. He was a multifaceted child prodigy and we crafted an educational and social world full of adventure, fun, astonishing people, unique opportunities, huge amounts of love and careful, thoughtful discipline and limit setting.
He was home schooled and there was an amazing amount of joy in our family. And then came the divorce and the ANGRY parent poisoning the well (you know, that thing that reasonable people do not do because, no matter how angry they are, it will hurt the child to alienate the other parent - unless the angry parent decides to be hurtful on purpose) and the rest, as they say is history. PAINFUL, needlessly painful history.
Looking at it philosophically and epistemologically, while I do not know for certainty that karma is real or whether it is merely hoped-for, I vote for it, big time!
Ironically, we share a similar experience in relation to an alienating divorcing/divorced, angry, spouse that particularly harmed the relationship between my eldest child and myself -- though she was home-schooled for high school (by me), and she, subsequently, earned Ivy-league, honored, degrees -- including a Ph.D., and is now a university professor. However, as I knew the children were becoming a battleground, utilized by a temperamental, alcoholic, threatening, malignant narcissist, I chose not to defend the lies and accusations to them...and hoped they would remember their childhoods as they happened, in reality. Yet, I did not realize that childhood memories could be distorted, and new ones even created by repeated lies -- especially outrageous ones. Ultimately, though, we can only believe that our love and efforts were not lost on the amazing individuals whom we once had the joy and challenge of raising -- without their current, conscious, knowledge, apparently...
Other than you being highly educated and me just “highly curious”, we are like two sides of coin. Your son and my daughter are still in mass psychosis….
I’ve been called every derogatory name
she could think of including not speaking to me for 5+ months.
But there is a hope. With so many sudden deaths and young friends getting cancers and other illnesses she’s waking up but refuses to address the topic. We are talking but it’s not the same….I wish you the day your son wakes up and realizes the incredible mother he has!
You are a wonderful, caring, knowledgeable, truth seeker with a huge heart!
Waiting for the news about your eyes!
Wishing you all the best!
Thank you so much Dr. Rima
PS. Can one send you mail on the address listed on the bottom of your email?
Re the eyes: my ophthalmologist will take a look see in July. If it is gone, he will probably say, Well! Lookee There! You didn't have MD after all since it can't be cured!"
I always wanted to learn ballroom dance, but my parents forbade it, due to religious conditioning. I left the family religion. I'm 70 years old and have been dancing since I was 45 -- with a passion. 💖💃🕺💖
Oh boy, can I ever relate to the religious conditioning = no dancing thing. I left religion, too. I’ll just be “Dancing With Myself” to quote Billy Idol 😂 I think joy is actually important to this human experience we are all having. Also, dancing releases endorphins and I’d rather have a natural chemical released than anything the pharmaceutical industry might create at this point. Keep on dancing!
We appreciate you Dr. Rima and all your efforts to make the world a better place. I pray your son comes around in time so you can have a loving relationship again. The Bible tells us there will be fractures in the family. You are the one who is right on the jab issue; the truth matters no matter who says otherwise. Godspeed to you Dr. Rima and thank you for this lovely post.
I absolutely adore you and have followed you and watched your courage through the past 14 years whenas a young mom felt so foolish standing up and against the lies of mandates becoming compulsory to go to school while raising my littles through the firestorm of California Vaccine mandate laws. . I wish I could adopt you as my mother! Your son is misguided and also smart and skilled. He had you as his mom so he didn't have to be as vigilant to the plague of our society. My family is estranged with me because of my beliefs while my mother died when I was 20 and father a socialist and "educated" brother a professor . It is such a hard venture when our children, our loved ones, our parents are brilliant and so, so unwise. I did struggle with this AHa moment during the lockdowns, I working in a big HMO hospital on the west coast, seeing with my own eyes the lies and discussing with the doctors in my department that these were lies, "let's pretend that we don't see what we see" and those others in the educational field, workplace, society bright, far brighter and smarter and more articulate then me, believing the news, believing Newsom, having cognitive dissonance, what I "know" to be true because I am seeing and hearing it with my own eyes, and they unbelieving me. By the way, our hospital was empty in late March, April, and May 2020 and we were shut down in our department, but "essential workers" taking temps before being able to walk into the office building. Oh the charade we went through.. all to get to the "NWO"
Yes, Contra Dancing... My daughter , 17 years old does that here in Forest Lake area , Nor Cal.. We have a lot of home grown, off the grid, homeschooler families up here. She loves it ! I will have to go with her and check it out. No forced signing life away. Bless you! Love your posts.
So Sorry you have to go through this psychopathic brainwashing with your son, Rima. You hide it well but I know that has to hurt... right in the heart. Just know you are loved by many and your son knows not what he does. :-(

Thanks for the comment, Dianne. Here is the Contra Dance video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcYOIXIMfJQ
Thank you so much! I thoroughly enjoyed it. It's similar to square dancing. And yes, your son is a wonderful piano player!

I miss and love Tucson ❤️
I always suspected you were a mass murderer. I just happen to like that kind of thing.
Been meaning to call and catch up. Hope to do so this week. Miss you!
We mass murderers always have the best dinner stories to tell, dontcha know!
I can commiserate. I quit playing Scandinavian music when my longtime friend demanded our group mask, and then the Daughters of Norway demanded masks and vaccines for their meetings.

More murderous when you find out they knew exactly what they were doing God I pray they will not get away with what they tried

Horrible, I hope she recovers…

I don't have kids but I'm crushed every time my 85-yr-old mother gets 'another' covid injection.
Dear Dr. Rima!

Thanks for the supportive words.
Re the eyes: my ophthalmologist will take a look see in July. If it is gone, he will probably say, Well! Lookee There! You didn't have MD after all since it can't be cured!"
If it is still present, I will redo the protocol.

That is crazy that the covid insanity is still going on!! As you said you stay from the shedders. I know some myself and do the same!

A prayer for all the families divided! Thanks for sharing , the dancing is so cheerful!
I hear you! I’m an old ballroom dancer, but many years ago I took up square dancing — loved it!! It keeps you fit … of body and brain.
Oh how I miss it!!!
YEAH!
Dancing is the best form of exercise there is! And the most fun.
We appreciate you Dr. Rima and all your efforts to make the world a better place. I pray your son comes around in time so you can have a loving relationship again.
