We have much to be thankful for in the way of health problems.  During the Civil War times in Tennessee my great-grandfather married into a family that was ravaged by consumption (what they used to call TB).  Though he did not catch it, his wife and their small children (except for one) all died from TB.  He took his tiny newborn son and raised him in the fresh air and sunshine of Oklahoma.
