Cheryl Cohen, 64, got the first dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine on April 5. She received the second dose on April 25. (Related: Pfizer vaccine destroys T cells, weakens the immune system – study.)
Before she got vaccinated, Cohen was in good health. Her daughter, Gianni, said she developed Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD) after her vaccination. CJD is a neurodegenerative condition that has severe effects on the brain. CJD has no known cure, and a person with the disease usually passes away within one year after the symptoms first appear.
Now, Cohen's doctor is certain that the vaccine is responsible for what happened to her.
On May 6, less than two weeks after Cheryl received the second dose, she began experiencing extreme brain fog and confusion. Gianni explained it was clear something was "neurologically wrong" with her mother.
"She couldn't remember where she was driving, and she got really scared," said Gianni.
On May 31, Cheryl called 911 because of a severe headache. She was taken to a hospital, where she stayed for 10 days.
"She got taken to this hospital and I don't know why they considered it, but they kept her for 10 days and released her home," said Gianni. "She was in a very bad state. She said, 'Hey, I don't know where I am.'"
"My mother had mass confusion and brain fog. She could not do simple things and something wasn't right. We had to have round-the-clock care with friends and family, thinking this was something that needed to be detoxed from her system," she added.
Gianni said Cheryl's condition got worse over time.
"She went from being able to work and do normal everyday activities to being able to do only basic things," she said. Cheryl had a job as a sales representative and she lived in her own apartment. "She cooked, cleaned and was in a great place in life."
Cheryl's condition became even worse on June 19, nearly two months after she became fully vaccinated. She experienced another severe headache, which she described as so terrible she felt her head was going to explode. She was once again admitted to the hospital.
When Gianni visited her mother a few days later, she could not believe what she saw.
"She couldn't walk, spoke in broken sentences, wasn't making much sense, had uncontrollable body movements, was trembling and unable to be still," explained Gianni. She felt very heartbroken to see her mother lose control of her own body.
More than a month into Cheryl's hospitalization, she was finally diagnosed with CJD. During her time in the hospital, Gianni said the experience of watching her mother deteriorate felt like seeing her brain get eaten alive.
But during her hospitalization, Cheryl experienced one brief moment of clarity.
"While shaking, she managed to get out the words, 'This is f------ stupid,'" recalled Gianni. "I said, 'Mom, is this the vaccine?' and she said, 'Yep.'"
According to Gianni, learning that her mother was vaccinated was very surprising because they both come from a family of vaccine skeptics.
Gianni added that she believes her mother was coerced into getting vaccinated either because of her job or because of pressure from mainstream media.
On July 19, Cheryl was discharged to hospice care. She died on July 22. Gianni said nobody has followed up on her mother's case even though she has filed a report with the federal government's Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System.
