Is her home okay, or is she going to have a lot of work to get it livable again?
We don't know yet but someone said that it seemed ok. I think someone was making a list of badly damaged houses and hers wasn't on the list.
She's ninety something. She leaves out certain details when retelling a story.
 
That’s understandable but I don’t think it necessarily ruins it if done right. Like maybe my reheating meat thing isn’t good and ruins it but some stuff is good and also microwaves have come a long way now so they usually have different settings for different things and cooks it perfectly. Like mine has a bunch of different ones for actual cooking, for reheating, for defrosting, etc. and then different settings for various foods in each of those things.
When DH and I were in Rochester for his bone marrow transplant, he was not allowed any non-packaged food that hadn't been heated/reheated to sizzling just prior to his eating it. We used the microwaves at the transplant house a LOT.

He didn't always feel up to eating, so when he did, it wasn't helpful to spend a lot of time enjoying the process. That left-over steak from last night's take-out restaurant meal would be way too done by the time it got reheated in the pan or oven. I would never try to cook meat in the microwave but it really works better than conventional for gentle reheating without over-doing it too, too much. I like mine rare to medium rare. If it needs reheating it's always gonna end up more done than I prefer but ime the microwave does the least harm unless I have access to a grill.

I had some friends (they're in Guatemala now so we've pretty much lost touch) who refused to have a microwave in their home because they felt it caused some kind of physical harm. I never discussed it with them (none of my business 🤷‍♀️) so I don't know what they were concerned about. I really doubt anyone has any credible research. Still, who knows? I wouldn't want to be stuck with nothing but the microwave, but I'm glad I have one available.
