My names Connor Callanan and for as long as I can remember I’ve had a burning desire to see the world and tell stories. I first started traveling alone at a young age. The things I was experiencing made me feel alive and connected to myself and the world. I first picked up a camera because it gave me a voice. I wanted to share these moments with other people so that they too could feel alive and connected. Over the last decade I’ve worked to build my life and career around the pursuit of capturing moments. I’ve traveled all over searching for stories with meaning. What I didn’t know is that the most meaningful story would come right from my own backyard. Fighting for my fathers life. The man who made all of this possible for me. When my Dad was dying in the hospital I felt helpless and voiceless. I could see very clearly that something wasn’t right. So once again I pulled out my camera. After I watched Ivermectin save him I watched the hospital refuse to let the family in the room next door try. It broke my heart and pissed me off. I decided then that I would put all my energy into sharing our story and helping other families advocate for their loved ones. After watching Ivermectin work for others as well I knew I had to try and make a film to share the truth about what was happening with more people. I spent over a year researching and putting it together. My hope was that the story would reach one other family that was desperately in need like mine was. I hoped that seeing a first hand experience could raise awareness and help awaken others to the reality that we are facing. Ultimately I hoped that the film would somehow unite and guide the human race towards the light during this dark and scary time in history. This is only just the beginning of my journey.

As the owner of Cat Parker Photography, I could not be any more thrilled at where my career was going. Photographing my favorite musicians such as George Lynch, Dokken, Great White, Slaughter, Rick Springfield, Billy Idol, and many more, I felt on top of the world. I also managed a corporate construction company as an Office & Restoration Project Manager, traveled, and as a single mom, took care of two young adult children. During the pandemic, I was mandated to get the covid vaccine. I did my due diligence and researched whatever information I could find and asked my GP if it was safe to take. I doctor stated that it was safe & effective. I assumed I had nothing to worry about and was not against the vaccine and believed I was doing the right thing like so many others. I received the Johnson & Johnson shot on 04/04/2021. Within a month I began experiencing chronic insomnia & fatigue. I went to see several doctors that dismissed the fatigue & insomnia as menopause and overworking. They even gave me two iron infusions to combat the fatigue, but nothing helped. On 11/09/2021 again I was mandated to get the booster to travel for work. This time within 2 weeks, the side effects began with my hair falling out. After that, it seemed that there was no stopping this shot from attacking my neurological system and body. During this time, I began to get sicker and was terminated from my job because of my condition. By this time, I had lost everything. I had lost my job, my health, and my financial security. Since taking the Pfizer booster I have been diagnosed with narcolepsy, sleep apnea, adrenal insufficiency, pseudoparkinsonism, dysautonomia, Epstein Barr Virus, Pathologic hypersomnia, Idiopathic CNS Hypersomnia, Chronic Vasomotor Rhinitis, Vertigo, and Chronic Tinnitus. I have chronic bleeding & blood clots, imbalance, memory loss, brain fog, kidney issues, swelling, rashes & chronic pain. Even going through all of this, I found the courage to come forward and founded a Facebook vaccine injured support group as well as an uncensored support group on TrialSite News to help those in need just like I. I have volunteered with React19 & Operation Truth as well to help those organizations get the support they need. I could not simply sit by and watch others suffer and be ignored, the way I was. The gaslighting, cruelty, and being invisible to the rest of the world. I will not idly stand by and will fight for all of us. I want to make an impact on the lives that have been affected by the covid 19 shots. I want to make a change and a change is needed so we never have to go through this travesty again.

On May 27 2021, I went to work and my fiancé's mom watched all four of my kids. All four kids were fine the whole day. I got off work went to the grocery store for dinner that night and I started cooking; after I got done cooking dinner I started studying for my Upcoming CNA exam. My fiancé's mom feeds my twin boys their bottles and put them in the crib around 6 pm. She checks on them all through the night. She woke up to check on the twins around 3 am and found one of my twins unresponsive. We called 911 and they walked us through CPR until the police and ambulance got there they rushed him to Children’s Mercy in Kansas City, Missouri and they tried to bring our son back to life but they couldn’t do anything. We came home hours later and the police were at our door they told us we need to come down to the police station to answer questions and we answered all their questions. While we were at the police station CPS was called they took our children from us at our house and rushed them down to Children’s Mercy Hospital so they could be examined. We went down there after we talked to the police and Children’s Mercy Hospital escorted us off their property. They would not let us see our kids. The autopsy results came back undetermined. Children’s Mercy Hospital said that he had a brain bleed but both of my kids were premature babies, brain bleeds are common and premature babies I told cps that and they won’t believe me Donate to Help The Mitchel Family Get Their Children Back https://www.givesendgo.com/mitchelfamily Support the show Thanks for listening and make sure to rate us on the podcast platform you are listening to!

Evelyn, 10 years old, went to Children's Mercy Hospital in KC for concerns about edema on 8/31/22. At CMH, Evelyn was given a toxic drug, CellCept (used for organ transplant patients, which Evelyn is not), against her parent's concerns about terrifying common side effects. Within 12 hours Evelyn vomited profusely so much that the count was lost and had gone blind. That was when her parents tried to lawfully get her to a second medical opinion, but CMH had her medically kidnapped on 9/10/22. Evelyn eventually had brain swelling and went unconscious for nearly three days. She can now partially see and is medically, neurologically damaged at the hands of medical staff at CMH, and her family is fighting to have a CPS case dismissed that should never have been opened to begin with."

We were all uniquely created and as such have very unique body chemistry and sensitivities. Skincare and healthcare are NOT one-size-fits-all! Safety and consideration of the individual are paramount in formulating herbal health and beauty products. I avoid using ingredients that have a likelihood to cause allergenic or sensitive reactions. I take extra care in selecting the highest quality essential oils. Because of my awareness and respect for essential oils and their safety, I am also careful to not overuse them or use them for “fragrance” but rather take into consideration their benefit as a botanical medicine.
