I keep promising that i'm going to pull some of our old photos and write, and I keep not fulfilling.<br /><br />I'm afraid I don't have too much info about the grand parents. I kick myself for never sitting with my grandma and asking questions.Pamelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05404943895800549273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-88041789203202896862009-04-16T10:44:00.000-05:002009-04-16T10:44:00.000-05:00I was trying to find your post about the wood burn...I was trying to find your post about the wood burner.

My grandfather...Another interesting story, Connie. My grandfather also had tuberculous. The State of Kentucky gave him a tent to live in and he was placed in quarantine outside his home. The State also furnished him with a radio and magazines. I'm not sure how long he lived in the tent. My grandmother would take meals to him and set it outside the tent and he would step out to pick it up. His children (16 kids) would sit outside and listen to his radio, a luxary they did not have in the house. <br />Many years later my brother (4 years old) cut himself with my grandfather's pocket knife and contacted turberculos. My brother was hospitalized and nearly died but by the grace of God is still here. He's 51 today.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15642967022028132751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-39697136778517907272009-04-15T11:16:00.000-05:002009-04-15T11:16:00.000-05:00This brings tears to my eyes.
