It's the big elephant in the room right now. Imelda the youngest among four siblings died February 1 2020. We spent six days in the hospital Intensive Care Unit. "We" because I was the only family member who can stay with her. Imelda was 47 years old and diabetic. She self medicated an infected foot, again. She's strong headed when it comes to taking charge of herself. So when I called for the ambulance to get her to the Veterans Memorial Medical Center VMMC emergency ward, she was already suffering the effects of sepsis and anemia. The doctors tried to help her with antibiotics and blood transfusion. The fifth day they asked my permission for intubation and dialysis. Before midnight, she was under DNR and the doctors knew she had minutes to live. She died 1:18 am.
Encryption is the topic of week. I wrote about it in a related post here. While encryption is a very good idea, doing it and doing it every day as part of your work flow is another thing. My view is that if you're already using an email client then it is easier, simpler and more convenient to adopt encryption. That is not the case if you're using a webmail service. If you are using the browser to check, compose and send your email, what are your options? The answer is: it's complicated. Looking for a way to do encryption with Google Chrome and Gmail, I found this. I also read that Google just released code for email encryption as open source. But it's a long way to being used by end users. The extension for Google Chrome works fine if the recipient also uses Google Chrome. But I went ahead and check this on Evolution.
