I'm so sorry to hear that and hope they get it cleared up soon. Not that your sister needs to be scared worse than she is, but MRSA is easy to spread. She is under stress (which makes you more likely to get sick), and could easily pick it up from him and get some small cut infected or something. Stress to her how important it is to wash her hands after being in his room and touching him. She can carry it home and can also spread it to folks that are not very healthy or kids and old people. Animals can get it from us also. When a hospital worker contacts a patient with MRSA, they have to wear a plastic gown and gloves. Afterwards they have to scrub good and clean anything the patient had contact with or they did after touching the patient. It can be beat so don't be discouraged, just tell her to be super careful. He needs her healthy. I will continue to pray for him.
