Dear Sandy,
I am stunned to hear about the loss of one so young. You are right, knowledge is powerful and I am grateful that you have made us even more aware of how powerful these new "bugs" are. I have been under the mistaken impression that we are still young enough to fight them off in our fifties; but your sisters experience as well as very similar experiences of 3 of my acquaintances have heightened my awareness that we are all still so vulnerable. (one died in her 30s and the other two were hospitalized for 2 weeks with the infection).
This is a tsunami time for you and your family...how fortunate she was to have had you.
Love Kim from CT
