Super Scio - About Eunice Ford

ABOUT EUNICE FORD
I have some fond memories of Eunice from the old days.
A sweet kind hearted black woman who always had an encouraging
word for everybody.
In the 1980s, when she was aging, they gave her the Chapline's
post at the complex in LA. This does seem to be the average
Sea Org member's idea of how to handle thier elderly staff,
namely to place them on an easier post which is not so stressful
and where their wisdom and experience can be of help to others.
This is in accordance with Ron's idea that full retirement and
taking away somebody's job is liable to result in a quick decay
and death because they no longer have anything to live for.
This "rosy" picture falls apart when you add in heavy ethics,
harsh seniors, and crazy orders. There are no low stress jobs
in the Sea Org. So whether or not this would be a workable
approach to handling the aged, the Sea Org handling is a
betrayal.
At a minimum, they would need policies about low stress kid
gloves treatment of any staff who were above retirement
age along with special half time schedules and much time to
study and relax. The person could also be sent on "missions"
to visit old friends and relatives which would primarily be
vacations with a bit of promotional duties. This would be
the least that they could do for their loyal supporters.
But in the current harsh environment, such treatment would
be thought of as validating downstats.
And then there is the other fly in the ointment, which is
that old people often do have medical problems. The Sea Org
is not prepared to confront or pay for these.
Note that I do agree with them as regards to discouraging the
steady use of tranquilizers, painkillers, and mind altering drugs
which do little to actually heal the body. But things that
actually fix physical conditions are a different matter entirely
and even Ron was in favor of using things such as antibiotics
when appropriate. The Sea Org knows that they should pay for
treatement by medical means in any situation where there is
a clean diagnosis and a proven track record of success. And
these things do come up with greater freequency as a person
gets older.
But they do not make provisions for this and their operating
basis is to offload and abandon.
I do not have any details on Eunice Ford's situation. All I
have is a second hand report without any details.
A friend of mine told me that she had talked with a relative
of Eunice's and been advised that Eunice had Alzheimer's
disease and was now in a rest home.
I do not know who is paying for this, but I suspect that
Eunice had met the minimum requirements for social security
coverage before joining staff because she was already in
her forties back in the 1960s.
Another disgraceful thing is that they do not want to call
attention to the fact that a high level OT has Alzheimers
(since Ron says that senility is due to between lives
implants going into restimulation) and so you will not see
any notices in the auditor that would alert her many friends
to send her nice cards to let her know that she was
appreciated.
Also, since Ron does propose that senility comes from
implants in restimulation, shouldn't they have tried to
audit her through this when the condition began to manifest
(and while it was still light enough to provide many good
moments of lucid conversation). And should they not have
published a paper as to the success or failure of the
approach, either to validate the tech so that others could
be helped or to recognize that it is a physical problem so
that appropriate treatement could be encouraged?
But they are afraid to use the tech or experiment with it
and Ron neglected to leave behind an alzheimer's
rundown. So I guess that we will never know whether or
not this one really does come from implants. Unless
of course the freezone takes up the challange.
I find this depressing.
Sadly,

Science seems to be getting pretty far in figuring out the mechanisms of
alzheimer's and demonstrating that it is genetic and biolchemical in basis,
and not psychological.
I do have rather of a mind-body perspective, but it seems to me like even
in psychology that researchers are beginning to discover and admit that it
is more of a two-way street, and that attitude can initiate or at least
reinforce some of the biochemical anomalies observable in psychological
conditions. And there is some research into pure mind effects, such as the
effect of prayer and faith on healing and well-being.
I'd say science is growing up to recognize that there is a who spectrum of
cause, from conditions that are purely physical to those that individuals
really do bring upon themselves by choices of attitude. CoS is stuck on
the other end, espousing a philosophy that is pretty absolutist in saying
that it's either all in your head or that you pulled it in (and I've seen
that go so far as to pin on individuals the responsibility for having
"chosen" do incarnate in a body with defective genes). I see some real
problems coming up for CoS' claims of "science" as the real scientists
become able to predict with certainty the victims and path of development
of some of the most mechanical conditions such as (perhaps) Alzheimer's.
Will CoS' screening of new members (which I would say includes selecting
for those who give the best reads on lie-detector type machines) one day
include genetic screening for conditions that they may have "chosen" (to
incarnate into a body with) that auditing can't treat? What better way to
find people who have truly fundamental "suppressive" conditions?

One night last week I sat in my car near the corner of Cleveland and
Ft. Harrison and watched the clam parade. Very, very few were over thirty
years of age, most I think were under 25.
Good health follows youth, just wait until they get older. If they
think that Hubbard's lunatic treatments will help them then they are
mistaken. Later too they will pay for the lack of dental work.
Sick people are not welcomed in $cientology, nor are the handicapped.
They make no provision for the elderly or infirm. But some people will
still say that Scientology which exalts in predatory materialism is
compatable with Christianity.
$cientology, chiefly responsible for the deaths of Lisa
McPherson, Patrick Vic, Susan Meister, James Stewart,
Noah Lottick and others. For more details about this sinister

Oh yes, scientologists in Switzerland were even so interested by the
swiss francs of a handicapped person that they got jailed for having
profited his handicap!

Yes, but thta's no problem, they just have to wait their next life plus
20 years or so, during which twenty years they'll get an excellent
upstat education till 5 or so, under incompetent nannies, in inept
out-security old bunkers without games; then they'll get some years of
"scientology school" where they'll be fed cockroaches in the milk (live
proteins, probably?); then, at 9 or ten, they'll get trained into
"upstat sea org orgs" to mail thousands of fliers into envelopes; then,
if they got a bit angry, they'll be declared and expulsed from the scam,
- this is the best that could happen to them.
