    Season 6, Episode 9 - Stolen and Lost Child, a conversation with a mother - how low can the medical system go?

    Send us Fan Mail This episode, Stolen and Lost Child, is a very distressing interview, probably the most awful story I've ever done.  The parents, Riina and Davis, sent me this after the episode was recorded.  From Riina, who is from Estonia:  Truly appreciate your help and efforts to rescue Theo from mcfd malpractice and hospital tyranny. As a family we have a strong bond and attachment with one another therefore kids have been healing fairly quick from the trauma they received in Lower Mainland with the police and mcfd, as well being away from home for almost 3 years. But the fact is they never forgot about their brother.  They remember and talk about him every day. Even youngest who is now 2 knows the name of her brother who is now 4 years of age, and we often show her pictures of her brother.  It has been a big relief for kids to be back home and have grandparents close by and their pets that they missed dearly. My girls keep telling me they need their brother! Should I adopt, foster a brother for them?? giving birth is not my option now. Girls had a very strong connection with their brother that they developed at the hospital. They encouraged him to walk, eat, they made him laugh, they played with him, taught him many skills. He was always excited to see his sisters....they sang and played together. They made him thrive and laugh that nobody else could do. The hospital nurses made reports to Mcfd, telling them that his sisters are hazard to Theo...as they can trip on his oxygen monitor wires and ventilator tube that he was connected to. The wires and cords got very tangled up by Theo himself as he was very active. He liked to explore like every toddler does.  He was only allowed to go to patio where he could get some sunlight and see few flowers and plants. Sisters were giving him flowers to smell and thought him about plants.  Nurses and doctors kept telling how Theo is developing well and is such a smart boy. He knew exactly who his family is and was always scared when he saw new people at his door.  God really blessed me with amazing family and support group and especially my kids that are very caring, resilient, happy and persevering. I would love to connect with families who have had either good or bad experiences with mcfd and BC children's. As we share together we get encouraged and maybe together we find better solutions how to tackle our trials with the systems we are dealing with. From Davis: We are up against a very powerful system that has its tentacles in many government agencies.  Theo needs to be reunited to his family and the lies the system has made need to be made known so the child trafficking for monetary gain will end.  He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds. He telleth the number of stars; he calleth them all by their names. Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite. Psalms 147:3-5  www.riinastepanov.blogspot.com Dear Listeners, If you can think of anything we can do to help this family, please be in touch with Riina and Davis or me at drheatherh@icloud.com And here is another story of medical malfeasance, if you haven't had a chance to listen to the radio play about Avi's death: The Music Stopped on Valentine's Day:  https://www.buzzsprout.com/794051/episodes/18605464 Up soon is the change of format for Dr Heather Uncensored Support the show #nosecondopinionsallowed #medicalmalpractice #sextherapyforthetraumatized #DHA #omega3 #theimportanceofseafood #thetroublewithvaccines #trauma #healing #music #sound healing #medical error #musicals #originalsongs #autism #soloshows #NationalCitizensInquiry #Creativity in Healing #Medicalfreedom #MindControl #Canadaontheedge #HealthCanada #CanadaLaw #TrueHope #truth #apocaloptimist #transformingtrauma #grief #grievingdeeply #homeopathy #loveheals #naturopathicmedicine  #druglessmedicine #energymedicine #expressiveartsheal #empoweredvoices #knowledgeispower #singtohealthyroids #erasetoxiclegacies #peaceispossible #VictimeRecovery Books: Transforming Trauma, a drugless and creative path to healing PTS and ACE is published by Hammersmith Books is available globally.

    Season 6, Episode 7 - Sir Michael Crawford, world expert on Omega 3/DHA

    Send us Fan Mail Speaking with Sir Michael Crawford who is the internationally recognized scientist who knows all about the fatty acid DHA and the need for DHA as a cornerstone in our health. He is a leading authority on maternal nutrition, brain development, and omega-3 fatty acids. His pioneering research has shaped modern understanding of how early nutrition influences brain growth, cognitive function, and long-term health. It was pure delight to interview this 96 year old man who is so lovely. I attempted to say little and let him speak. (There was a problem with my end of the audio at time but I don't think it matters as it's him that's important to listen to.) Enjoy!

    Season 6, Episode 5 - The Root of ANTI SEMITICISM. Talking with Dr Mona Balogh MD (retired)

    Send us Fan Mail This episode came from my desire to talk about antisemiticism, especially why and what and why again. Mona has been teaching me Hebrew and is just back from Israel so I figured she'd be a good person to turn to in these tragic times. And I was correct. This is one of my favorite episodes. It's honest and deep and enlightening. Mona's bio: Mona Balogh retired from work as an Emergency Physician in 2014. Once retired, Mona has been busy studying alternative medicine pathways. This has led her to  recognize other therapeutic modalities that complement the Western Medicine model, including Traditional Chinese and Naturopathic medicine, energy medicine, herbal, and homeopathic treatments. In addition, Mona has been an avid Bible student, and has been leading Bible Studies, and teaching Biblical Hebrew since 2011. Throughout her life, Mona has been grappling with the problem of good vs evil, which makes the study of antisemitism and trauma so relevant today. She and her husband Endre have three grown daughters, and four grandchildren. They live in Chatsworth, California.

    Season 6, Episode 4 - Speaking with Florence Riggs, vocal coach and sound healer

    Send us Fan Mail A Chat with Vocal Coach Florence Riggs: This podcast has always been about trauma, what it is, what gets in the way of healing and creative suggestions for recovery.  This episode with vocal coach and sound toning practitioner, Florence Riggs, therefore is a treasure as she's the real deal. And as my vocal coach for over 20 years, I can't give her enough positive juice for who she is and her ability to help both new singers or seasoned celebrities.  One thing I have found with my voice is that there are times I just can't sing, if the  energy in the room is not conducive to well being. I can always sing with Florence. She allows my abilities in a way no one else has. And that is why I am excited to be speaking with her today and letting you in on the chat:)! I will let Florence or Fiorenza, as I often call her, tell her bio and talk about how she came from NYC to Hollywood. Regarding my new radio play: The Music Stopped on Valentine's Day is the story of my late husband's death from hospital error. It is interspersed with his vocal tunes to celebrate his talent as a lyricist and composer. If you haven't had a chance to listen yet please find it on Dr Heather Uncensored, Season Six, Episode One. It may be easier to go to buzz sprout.com to find it. There are 95 other episodes with people like Dr. Peter Breggin, Dr Larry Paletsky, Del Bigtree, Dr. Sherry Tenpenny, Jane Barlow, and so many more to enjoy and learn from.

    Season 6, Episode 3 - Speaking with constitutional lawyer, Paul Jaffe, about the state of B.C.

    Send us Fan Mail Hi Everyone,  Hope this finds you grounded and doing well in this chaotic time. In this episode, I speak with Vancouver lawyer, Paul Jaffe. Paul has been in practice for decades and offers great insight into the justice system in Canada. During Covid, he went up against BC Medical Officer, Bonnie Henry,  when pubs could be open but not churches. He isn't afraid to speak his mind on a variety of other subjects such as the horrific ostrich cull or Jim Heller's defamation lawsuit for simply saying potential mass graves. Paul has been the head commissioner at the NCI, the National Citizen's Inquiry, several times now, asking pertinent questions to our well-being.  I encourage you to check out this most extraordinary group, a citizen-led and citizen-funded effort that began first by examining Canada's response to COVID-19, and has gone on to other important topics that deeply affect us personally and as Canadians.  Kelowna was the last city to hold this ongoing, multi-city event asking "Are Farmers Safe in Canada?" I spoke as an expert witness Edmonton with the theme "Are Children Safe in Canada?" on The Flexner Report of 1910 when it was in Edmonton. It is a great eyeopener of how people have experienced the traumas of Covid, the ostrich cull, human trafficking, farmer's injustices and so on. Their website is nationalcitizensinquiry.org.  MY I:I WORK: (individual) I am now accepting new patients. I have a fifteen minute complimentary consultation to see if we are a match.  WORKSHOP FOR ADDICTS and/or TRAUMA SURVIVORS: This group workshop will begin online soon. It covers telling your story by writing, and performing (optional) leading to a radio/podcast show or on stage. We will allow each person's story to come alive in an honest and safe way. It's also really fun once we move past the fear and trepidation. Again 15 minute complimentary consultation to see if it is a fit for you. BOOK REVIEW Here's the latest book review for my book, Transforming Trauma, a drugless and creative path to healing PTS and ACE (adverse childhood experiences.) written by Vijay Vaishnav, MD (Hom), CCH https://www.californiahomeopath.com/rebirth-volume-20-issue-1/Blog%20Post%20Title%20One-3zaa9-zlxng-2e6m7-8hltb-y5ccf I hope you all are taking the time to take good care of yourself and your family. Don't shy away from discussions, its the cornerstone of a democracy and it's something we all can do.
