This is my sister who is recovering from quadruple heart bypass surgery. She was always so physically active that being in a hospital for 5 weeks with surgery and complications was difficult for her. To help her pass time during recovery, my other sister and I bought her an iPhone and I established a Facebook account for her to connect with her former classmates and friends. She wasn’t happy about it as she’s not tech savvy. Then one night I came into a dark living room to find her reading Facebook in her iPhone in the dark with a magnifying glass. The glow of Facebook on her face was irresistible.
