= new reply since forum marked as read
My mom was in a Florida nursing home for several years until she died ~2 yrs ago (Alzheimers). I won't pretend I haven't felt a sense of relief that she didn't have to live through this. Or die from it. 
Out of curiosity, I've occasionally checked to see if there are any cases at the place she lived. Looks like 9 'suspected' cases, none confirmed, and no deaths at this point. But I fear it is inevitable.
Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
