Such a service to your community. I just have to say as a 75 year old combat vet who has served in Vietnam that the service you are providing is honorable. This is coming from a man who's job was threat protection for 5 top tier bases, 3 South Vietnam SF and 2 USSF, Delta Force & Seal Team 6. We deployed in a 15 man unit and got to work directly with the civilian people and their Top Tier Forces in 2 border towns behind enemy lines. This was directly on a major supply rout where at times we could see lights for a mile or more and would call in artillery rounds on them or AC - 47's gun ships, B-52's & helicopter gunships They were protected by Battalion and Brigade size forces. My belief of service to country and to each other is the most honorable thing any of us can do.

What an awesome job you did for little Gracie.Thank you! So sad how children died back in the day. Those parents too, had a lot of grief to deal with.

Thank you, and I agree. I have two daughters, and I can't imagine the heartache.

We have no idea how easy is for us to evade death at a young age; antitibiotics changed everything. My great great grandfather was born in Genoa in 1852 and he was one of four siblings out of thirteen to reach adulthood. My great grandfather died in 1918 because of the Spanish flu. He had seen three of his nine children predecease him due to several diseases which today would mean only a couple days in bed. It's good what you do in order to respect and preserve the memory of the departed. Greetings from Buenos Aires.

What an interesting video! I had pneumonia last year. I was not hospitalised but I had to have three rounds of antibiotics and it lasted about 2 and a half months. I have never been so ill. It is sobering to realise that the difference between me and Gracie's sister (and possibly Gracie) is just the discovery of antibiotics.

My grandfather lost three siblings due to dypyheria. They died within two weeks. He escaped the illness as he was in a military school and was not exposed. My poor great grandmother……

I couldn't imagine the heartache of losing that many loved ones in such a short time period. We are lucky to live in a time with modern medicine, especially antibiotics.

Indeed, at that time the death rate was very high and life expectancy was short. Better medicine, medical treatment, food and sanitation has brought the death rate down and life expectancy way up. Gracie likely died of something easily treatable today. It's been said the only way for the children's death rate to go down much further is through genetic manipulation.
