    Sincere condolences for the loss of your uncle, Jeannie. And to everyone else who has lost family or friends to this nasty virus.

    Add 1 more. I have a brother-in-law in West Virginia and his mother passed away today. She was 89 years old and had trouble with congestive heart failure back in August. She lived in an Assisted Living Facility that had a COVID-19 outbreak in the recent few weeks, about 50% of the residents were positive. She was positive but never had to go onto a vent machine and was recovering pretty well but was found pulseless this morning. My BIL doesn't know yet if her death will be listed as directly related to the virus or some other cause. It was tough to speak to him on the phone and hear his voice crack.

    So to update, after a long time of not feeling well, my mom is finally feeling better. She ended up getting chest x-rays last week and to see if she has pneumonia, and it turns out she didn't, but they gave her an antibiotic for something in her chest. Anyway I talked to her last night and she felt a lot better, and says she thinks she's going to make it...
