Brenda, I had a great aunt and uncle who had 2 children, a boy and a girl. Both of them died before they reached their second birthday. They died from pneumonia. It left a void in their lives forever. I remember seeing the pictures of them when I was growing up. They were so sweet. Things like that are so hard to understand. There was a family down there someplace in SE Ky that had a number of children and all of them died while very young. I am not sure what they died from. It is so hard on people when none of their children live past childhood.
