Put plainly, Jean Johnson doesn’t remember her daughter is her “daughter.” 
Deb Wiltshire certainly remembers all the love her mom gave her before  Alzheimer’s Disease assaulted her mind. As coronavirus cases began to grow in the state, Ohio Governor Mike DeWine closed schools, prohibited mass gatherings of more than 100, and banned visitors at nursing homes and state psychiatric hospitals.
Deb hasn't seen Jean since.She is among the thousands upon thousands of family member cut off from relatives now in nursing home.
"What Had Happened Was" host Amelia Robinson chatted with Deb about Jean for this special episode. Find Amelia's article about Deb and other family members in her same situation on Dayton.com at http://bit.ly/DaytoncomforJean.
