After a 12 hour
drive into the wilderness and 36 hours of walking we are finally here
at Delta Bravo. Treacherous conditions. |
5:25 PM |
23-Dec-09 |
|
|
|
InepdShirley |
We have had to
deal with walking through deep snow and icy conditions on the mountain
passes. |
5:26 PM |

Have given the
team a heavy dose of Ketamine so they sleep well tonight and get a
good rest in the below freezing temperatures. |

Klaus sprained his
ankle after the 14th hour of our march and he begged us to build a
snow cave for him and leave him. |
5:28 PM |
23-Dec-09 |
|
|
|
InepdShirley |
Klaus didn't want
us to slow the rest of down on our march. He was an inspiration to us
all. I gave him a shot of Atropine and he bucked up. |
5:31 PM |
23-Dec-09 |
|
|
|
InepdShirley |
Klaus had bad
blurred vision and we nearly lost him on some of the trickier climbs.
We couldn't rope him to anyone because of his size. |
5:33 PM |

The storm rages
outside. This mountainous snow covered little hut will now be our
home. Who knows for how long? |

When will it be
safe to return to this crazy world of hope and despair that I love ?
When can I hold my love '@InepdShane again in my arms? |

I planted 10
seedlings from Sven just before I left and kept them warm in my fanny
pack. The are now by our tiny fire. |
5:48 PM |
23-Dec-09 |
|
|
|
InepdShirley |
By caring for
these little seedlings I will think of '@InepdShane |
5:50 PM |
23-Dec-09 |
|
|
|
InepdShirley |
With every tender
touch and every bit of sustenance I feed them I will be bringing life
and warmth to '@InepdShane 's soul. |
5:51 PM |
23-Dec-09 |
|
|
|
InepdShirley |
Better go. Klaus
is restless , I better give him another shot of Ketamine. I think the
Atropine is working against the last shot I gave him. |

Today 6 Seedlings

7:33 PM |
28-Dec-09 |
|
|
|

We will soon have
to forage on the lower forested slopes to find food in the wooded
area. There could be some wild game. |

We have have made

We discovered so
much about ourselves , our ideas, our strengths and love. Our virtues,
beliefs and commitment were tested. |
7:46 PM |
28-Dec-09 |

Now we are being
tested by this majestic winter desolation high in the mountains at
Delta Bravo. |

Sigrid and Bakti
made the first outing today for food. They were gone the whole day and
came back late without finding anything. |
7:50 PM |
28-Dec-09 |
|
|
|
InepdShirley |
Sigrid and Bakti
seemed to have altitude sickness and were slurring their words. I gave
them a shot of Ketamine to help them out. |

@InepdShirley We are doing all we can to find '@InepdShane. However
things are very slow at this time of year between Xmas and New Year. |
8:08 PM |
28-Dec-09 |
|
|
|
InepdShirley |
Running short on
food. Bakti, Klaus and Sigrid didn't find any food again for the
second day. |
6:53 PM |
29-Dec-09 |
|
|
|
InepdShirley |
It was so
courageous of Sigrid and Bakti to go out and search for food again
after coming back yesterday in such a bad state. |
6:56 PM |
29-Dec-09 |
|
|
|
InepdShirley |
Found some moss
and tree bark and managed to make a soup with our last can of corned
beef. Bakti, Sigrid and Klaus were to tired to eat. |
6:58 PM |
29-Dec-09 |
|
|
|
InepdShirley |
I am wooried about
Klaus's leg but he just wouldn't rest today. He wanted to join Sigrid
and Bakti. They were out for 15 hours in the cold. |

Still no news on

let him tweet I could be reassured. |

For a while I lost

Damien my son just
came back from his 4th Gap year 10 months early. He had lost all his
allowance. Very difficult time for him. |
7:17 PM |

He had a very
rough time in Thailand and Goa and was robbed several times. Poor boy
is devastated to be back so early. |

a week we might have to tell his family. |

We think that
'@InepdShane 's tunnel into Cop15 was a major security breach for the

2 more seedlings
of Sven died today only 2 left. Sigrid, Bakti &Klaus once again gone
for the 3 day foraging for food. |
6:28 PM |
30-Dec-09 |
|
|
|
InepdShirley |
We have no food
left now. I feel so desperate today. Hunger the cold and unsure of
where '@InepdShane is. I am so angry at those Danes. |
6:30 PM |
30-Dec-09 |
|
|
|
InepdShirley |
Every metre of
that 400m tunnel at #Cop15 he dug was for world peace and those people
lock him up in secret like he's some sort criminal. |
6:32 PM |
30-Dec-09 |
|
|
|
InepdShirley |
Bakti, Klaus and
Sigrid came back happy but once again slurring their words from the
altitude & hypothermia. They have so much spirit. |
6:34 PM |
30-Dec-09 |
|
|
|
InepdShirley |
Sigrid, Bakti and
Klaus are asleep and snoring heavily. I will give them a Ketamine shot
to calm their sleep. |
6:35 PM |
30-Dec-09 |

It's now the 3rd
day without any real food. Sigrid, Bakti and Klaus are holding up well
despite their long foraging expeditions. |

I bitter wind

I am alone.
Sigrid, Klaus and Bakti left early to find food and still have not
returned. I am worried for them. |

I have a fair
quantity of Inepd Therapeutic feeding products. I wanted to wait till
one of us became malnourished before using them. |
3:15 PM |
31-Dec-09 |
|
|
|
InepdShirley |
It's against the
Inepd Nutrition Guideline to use these feeing products to prevent
malnutrition, but I was only going to use the plumpy nut |
3:41 PM |
31-Dec-09 |
|
|
|
InepdShirley |
There would be
still a good stock of F100, F75, Ezzy Paste, BP5 and BP100 if one of
us did contract malnutrition. Such a ghastly disease! |

They had been up

Just about to

8:24 PM |

|
|
|

I feel so confused
and lost. There is a ski resort Just below de Waal 5 on the other
side. Klaus, Bakti and Sigrid must have seen it before |
8:25 PM |
1-Jan-10 |
|
|
|

But why didn't
they tell me. Was it to make sure I could stay in hiding. I am so

Have they turned their backs on de Waalianism. |
8:31 PM |
1-Jan-10 |

Maybe they are
true de Waalians. Sidelining some principles in return for some warmth

They planned to
come back with food for me every now and then. The couldn't tell me
the movement was at an end. |
5:44 PM |
2-Jan-10 |

I guess I started
to question de Waalanism as well. With Shane detained without justice.
Could this be right? |
5:45 PM |

Maybe there is a
