Vaccine Injury Testimonial

Vaccine Injury of Susan Sullivan


What was your life like before you received the COVID-19 vaccine?

I had a baby at 45. I worked in the luxury fashion world and CEO’s would tell me they couldn’t keep up with how fast I walked on the streets when I was searching to fill Store Managers on Rodeo Drive to Michigan Avenue. I skied, I hiked, I white water rafted. I was 100 miles an hour and every person who met me knew that!

Describe the symptoms and the timeline of the reaction.

October 22, 2022 I got my 2nd booster. As I walked out I knew why everyone had to sit and wait for 15 minutes. I began to feel off. The pharmacist had me sit down and I waited for an hour inside the grocery store pharmacy. I wasn’t right. I went home and told my husband who had just retired from 28 years at Seattle Police Department that I wasn’t feeling well. Well in our family you don’t get sick. My husband made me a tough one. He fought in the Iraq war when we were in college. The term is “we just buck up us Hancock’s” The week went on and I continued to get sick. Achy. My arms started to hurt. Drew took me out of bed and made me go to the gym. He held me up. I went to an exercise class I’ve been doing for years on November 7. I ended up in a seizure, stroke as I walked out to go home I could not remember how I got there. The YMCA team came and got me up on a stool and gave me some Gatorade. I fell off the stool. I then fell off the chair they put me on. So they put me behind the desk and I went into convulsions. The ambulance came. The ER Dr told my husband I needed to go home and meditate and that I had global amnesia. From there my life went downhill. I started having mini episodes where I could not walk or talk. My hands curled up. I slurred my speech. My vision went double and I was wetting my bed. Dr after dr after dr there are too many to go over. But the Mayo Clinic in Florida where we flew to denied me because I did not have a diagnosis. The Cleveland Clinic told me I had cervical dystonia and that my life would never be the same again and that I needed to mourn my previous life and then shot my head full of Botox, put me on 5000mg of gabapentin and baclofen and left me to my pain. I saw a heart Dr, spine surgeon, sat in an ER for 16 hours to wait for a spinal tap to see if I had meningitis. I was told I had MS. I was told I needed psychological help. Back to the Mayo Clinic with my cervical dystonia diagnosis I was seen by a movement specialist who sent me to the Covid clinic where I was told 10-20% of people have had neurological issues. Then I flew home to Idaho from Florida a second time with no help. No IGIG. Nothing just we know nothing. I became so crazy in pain I wanted to kill myself. Friends abandoned me saying they could not deal with me that I was too much for them. My husband became enraged that I left him to take my son to school, make him breakfast and lunch and dinner and ski class at 6 AM every weekend after he just worked all week while I was in bed. Wetting my bed. Crying in pain. I just wanted to die. Finally after almost two years I saw a Neurologist in Spokane Washington who told me I had an autoimmune reaction called ADEM acute disseminated encephalmylitis. But it was too late to get the IGIG. So I was sent to a natural path who started me on my healing. I went one night to the train tracks with whiskey and wine. My husband called the police and I was taken in to the crazy place to be evaluated. Life was horrible. My neck was in so much pain I just wanted to die. I am someone who loved life. For Christ sake yes I am Catholic I had a baby boy at 45. I am a pistol! And here I was 80 lbs, miserable and alone and my friends and family thought Bo was being selfish. This vaccine that I took to help others took two years of my life. To this day I am cleaning houses to pay for the functional medicines I had to have while I was sick. Not one of those 85 drs helped me. One even said” what are you doing here today, I can’t help you with your neck” He had his face in mine with his mask yelling at me. Yelling at me as I am crying in intense pain. That is my story and there is so much more. But I need to go to the gym and catch that workout class I took that day that I lost those two years of my life. If this taught me one thing it is to grab life and run with it because when you don’t have your health you have nothing. I can barely see as I type this. That movie made me cry when I heard all those people say the same thing that I went through and validated I am not crazy! It just happened to me too!
