On the 2nd of March 1896, my Great Great Grandparents, lost their little girl, Genoveva, she was 1yr, 10 months and 19 days old...cause of death was pneumonia.
My GG grandparents had another little girl, who was only 16 day old when her sister died. On the 5th of April 1897, that baby girl, Eladia, would also die. Aged 1yr 1 month and 16 days....cause of death, also pneumonia.
When I found the death registrations for these two babies...man it was surreal. I couldn't imagine losing one baby, let alone two, barely a year apart.
But that's just it, shit happened, in every family. My story is not unique and neither is yours.
People dropped like flies, from seemingly benign illnesses we now can easily treat.
