The Issue

In high-stakes fields like healthcare, clarity, accuracy, and ethical decision-making depend on “professionals” and “systems” that does not truly acknowledge the IMPORTANCE of patient rights! Furthermore, ACCOUNTABILITY AND TRANSPARENCY ARE NECESSARY when QUALITY OF LIFE is a factor! I’ve launched this petition advocating for proper Tolling, stronger standards around TRUE informed consent, disclosure, and accountability ESPECIALLY when genetic information is later reclassified, and life-altering medical decisions were made based on OUTDATED information. Healthcare isn’t just about wellness — it’s about safety, ethics, and TRUST! Having had an unnecessary Double Mastectomy, and only coming to the knowledge that it was unnecessary AFTER THE FACT is not the definition of health CARE! Additionally, as the “law” would have it, the STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS in Va does not have a suitable discovery, and that needs to be reformed expeditiously because this Petition scenario could soon be YOU! With that being said, this petition is not just about me, it’s about EVERY WOMAN/MAN who has undergone an unnecessary procedure where MATERIAL FACTS were skewed to facilitate a paycheck! In my case, MATERIAL FACTS outlined a BENIGN BIOPSY, MAMMOGRAM, and a RECLASSIFIED as Benign Genetic testing. Yet, medical records notated BRCA vs VUS under BRCA (which was RECLASSIFIED), AND CANCER documented in my medical records,  which I never had! How does this align with INFORMED CONSENT when Surgery is presented with a matter of Fact Dx that was not true? It does NOT! Why? Because you cannot consent to something based on falsity when Material FACTS are apparent! What I was told was “it wasn’t a matter of IF, but WHEN I get Cancer” based on a BRCA gene that I did NOT have! This is unsettling because now I’m dealing with so many health issues stemming from these implants that I would NOT have had BUT FOR this erroneous surgery! Please stand with me as I stand with others in this same situation to require a proper TOLLING that is EQUAL and FAIR and JUST for ALL! Not a TOLLING that is STATE dependent! As a reminder: The definition of JUSTICE is best described as fair, equitable, and impartial treatment or the administration of law, ensuring each person receives what they are due or deserve, balancing rights, fairness, and moral rightness in society's systems and actions. It encompasses concepts like equality, ACCOUNTABILITY, and the upholding of moral principles! As such; when systems are unclear, or errors are made and hidden, the burden subsequently shifts to the individuals that were harmed AS OPPOSED TO THE ONES WHO SHOULD BE HELD TO THE OATH “TO DO NO HARM”! Stand with me and sign my Petition! 

In the spirit of EQUALITY , here is a Poem that I would like to share .

                JUSTICE HAS NO ZIP CODE

They call it justice but justice for who,

If what counts as wrong depends on the view?

If harm is harm, and truth is true,

Why should state lines decide what they’ll do?

Why must one state write a specific law

To make another state admit what it saw?

One calls it justice, one turns its head

Same wound, same truth, but different red tape instead.

If I cross one border, my rights disappear?

Does accountability end when the county line’s near?

Does pain lose value? Does evidence change?

Or is “equal protection” just ink on a page?

A body is sacred in every location.

Consent should not bend to state legislation.

Wrong should be wrong—north, south, east, west.

Truth should not need fifty separate tests.

Because justice is not equal when access depends

On where one state starts and another one ends.

It isn’t justice if some must fight

For lawmakers to name what was never right.

Why must the wounded draft laws from their scars,

While those who caused harm hide behind legal bars

Not bars of a prison, but loopholes and time,

Where technical language can pardon a crime?


Don’t tell me we’re equal, then ration relief.

Don’t praise the system while it profits from grief.

Don’t call freedom blind when she somehow can see

The state on my license before she sees me.

Justice should travel wherever truth goes.

It should answer the wound, not protect who imposed

A lifetime of damage, then walked away free—

While the harmed must prove harm geographically.

No border should lessen the weight of a wrong.

No victim should need a state-specific song.

No life should be valued by statute or zone—

What violates one should violate all.

Until every state gives the same truth a voice,

Justice isn’t justice—it’s selective choice.

And equality written but unevenly applied

Is merely injustice in patriotic disguise.

So don’t hand me a promise divided by lines.

Don’t measure my rights by legislative designs.

If justice is equal, then let it be clear:

The law should meet truth—

no matter WHO, what when, or where!
