With all this healthy lifestyle, she now has TB, doctors don't know how she got it (could it be that “fresh” food from some foreign country?), and it's the kind that isn't transmitted person to person. She is on several different antibiotics a day for a year, then to be reevaluated. I'm not sure she will be alive a year from now as she is susceptible to any germ that comes along. When your lungs don't want to work, it's a big problem.
My sister-in-law is a School Administrator type in Massachusetts. During my Christmas visit, my nephew wanted to know what “Animal Farm” was about because he had to read it for school.
I gave him a basic plot outline in two minutes, then was going to give him a primer on what the book is really ‘about’. But my sis-in-law said that I had to stop. To her mind, a conservative couldn’t possibly have a valid opinion about the book.
Of all the BS I had to listen to in my brother’s house, that infuriated me the most.
Speculative possibility: she drank raw milk from an organic cow. Raw milk is much better nutritionally and digestively than the store-shelved pasteurized/homogenized white stuff, but it's also a very good tuberculin bacterium carrier, so unless the cow is kept squeaky clean inside and out, drinking the raw stuff puts one at risk for TB.
