My Dad is 78 and a few months ago talked about looking into assisted living for the first time. Which makes me incredibly sad but also soooooooooooo glad it hadn’t happened yet when this hit.
Until a few years ago my dad worked part time in an assisted living home. I am also sooooooo glad he’s fully retired now. He was older than some of the residents lol.
Nobody in Puerto Rico has received US bailout cheque’
The mayor of San Juan, the largest city in Puerto Rico, says not a single person on the US island territory has yet received their $1,200 stimulus cheque from the US federal government.
Mayor Carmen Yulín Cruz told MSNBC on Saturday: “No-one in Puerto Rico has received their $1,200 coronavirus stimulus cheques from the federal government. We’re having problems with a local $500 cheque that the governor said was going to be distributed.”
She added that there was a backlog of around 130,000 unemployment applications.
Earlier this week, the island’s treasury secretary said around 486,000 Puerto Ricans should expect to receive an email this weekend informing them that they are eligible to receive the federal bailout money.
