Hello,
Thank you for your contact to healthcare magic.
I understand your health concern, if I am your doctor I suggest you that if you and your mother is sharing the garments, clothes and bedsheets than you are prone member of developing the MRSA. It never transfer inherently.
I will be happy to answer all your future concern.
