Oh MY! Yes MrsCoach I will send you anything you need. I will even send you my signed copy of Terry Spear's latest book.
I was going to fly down to Thanksgiving or Christmas. I think I will skip this year. **HUGS** Please stay safe. |

At this point I would get in my car and drive to stay with a relative in another state. Ebola can live on stuff for days so even getting packages or the mail or anything wear gloves. It wont fully protect but it will help.

I am about 60 miles west of Dallas, but I am getting concerned, but not panicking. When more catch it, or someone outside health workers, I'll panic.

Eve Langlais book, Delicate Freakn' Flower is free.
Amazon Kobo Smashwords Dammit , just how many toes was she going to have to stomp on before people realized she was a delicate freakn’ flower? Naomi doesn’t want to follow tradition and settle down with a violence-loving, chest thumping shapeshifter. She grew up in a household with five, testosterone laden brothers where none of the dishes ever matched, the ugly-as-sin furniture could withstand any catastrophe, and where crazy glue was bought by the case. When fate—with a snicker—makes her meet not one, but two mates, Naomi digs her heels in and refuses to do what her wolf—and her body—demands. No way is she voluntarily allowing herself to get hitched to a pair of dumbass—totally hot and muscled—lacrosse players. Can Ethan, the towering Kodiak bear, and Javier, the sexy, tanned jaguar convince this she-wolf that life with them won’t be all chaos? And can this delicate freakn’ flower unbend her prejudices enough to recognize she needs a pair of men who can handle her thorns—and her passion? |

Free from the author/re-publisher via KDP Select @ Amazon:
Lifting Suspicion: A Medical Romance by Gill Sanderson, a contemporary Exactly What It Says In The Title with what looks like a dose of suspense (though that may just be ordinary upping-the-stakes drama), originally out from Mills & Boon in 2000. All Dr. Megan Taylor wants is to carry on with her work as a SHO in the Obs and Gyne department of her hospital. She knows that on occasion people take advantage of her good nature, but she can cope with it. Then her happy world seems to be about to collapse when her former consultant is accused of a crime he cannot defend himself against, and Megan is named as his conspirator. New consultant Christian Firth is her complete opposite – while she is calm and docile, he enjoys a fight, but Megan finds herself drawn to him. When he shows an interest in her, he is more wary than she is – while they are falling in love with each other, he can’t fully trust her until she clears her name. |

![]() The reports coming from the nurses is scary! The protective gear was not adequate with skin exposed and waste piling high with no one taking care of it. No prior training to handle Ebola. My heart goes out to these nurses who will probably all come down with it. ![]() ![]() |

Actually the nurse had a low grade fever while on the plane. And as per rules she shouldn't have travelled at all (another black mark on that hospital for not better educating the nurses). I think that hospital was ill prepared for this. It showed by releasing the first patient even though he mentioned being in Liberia. They had too many people caring for Duncan also, instead of using a limited amount of people who are better trained.
I think these cases are better left to hospitals with more experienced staff. Last edited by frozennorth; 10-15-2014 at 03:07 PM. |

I was giving the hospital the benefit of the doubt at first, but now I think they choose to hope it wouldn't happen to them and buried their heads. I'm not talking about those on the front line, but the admin.
I loved "Delicate Freakin' flower". Don't remember exactly why, just that I loved it. |

The hospital claimed their staff was prepared when they obviously were not. It's not that the CDC is doing nothing, one of the biggest problems is many hospitals don't want the CDC telling them what to do.
