Candlelight Collective

This is Donna.  I started the new book and right away had to google common causes of death in the 1600's.  I don't know if I am recommending you do the same or not.  Maybe I am... If you like history.  Maybe I am not - the details are disturbing.  I don't know how anyone made it - living, that is - in the 1600's, infant, youth or adult.  Disease. Injury. Child bearing.  I am so thankful for modern medicine right now and less labor intensive jobs for me, my husband, my children.  - Nice to hear from you Lindsey E.  I just read your post.
