Alternative Universe Could Have Happened:
Stan: TIM write a letter I can submit to the hospital system about why this medication does not work well for you, and I personally will hand deliver it to them. I will provide $100 in allowance to do this.
THAT is activism Stan, and using his skills.
Yet we could not speak - because someone was already manipulating from my job.
THE NEXT WEEK if you stay on your medication Tim, and write a letter for how it makes you feel. I will personally hand deliver it to a politician or big pharma in the regional area. We can do this together. That will earn $50 dollars more.
THAT is activism Stan
My brother had no money to buy stamps, he was trying to starve someone with a disability into compliance, yet he left him an estate.
Stan called him delusional for leaving unstamped letters. He was very symbolic.
It was a SIGNIFICANT disagreement between my father and I.
The horror I felt in the pit of my stomache when he stood in my home and said he was cutting Tim off financially.
I said you cannot starve a man out of his disability.
2007, Greg no other family helping. My sister tanking too.
The lack of cognitive ability for my father to recognize that a disability cannot be starved away was astounding in 2007
As a result of repeated starvation tactics my brother presented himself to his neighbors for money and the other part of his stability was OVER.
Having a stable place to live was profoundly important for him. Biologically important for him.
My brothers wife who is not there - has no idea the complexities that were going on.
I never had a SAY, a chance to THINK, a choice to collaborate when my father walked into my kitchen and told me he was going to starve Timothy Green Merriman into taking his meds.
The pain I walked around with and dealt with was UNREAL Laurie Thompson Merriman, Greg Merriman, Julia Merriman. No actual FAMILY.
The money he gives anyone is and was BLOOD MONEY off of Tims ability to LIVE the entire time.
These notes from Stan in 2010 have my head spinning.
