I agree Dave,my Dad was the only survivor of my Grandmas seven children..due like I said to TB,my Dad did get it and was sent to the TB hospital in Southport..when my Grandma went to bring him home,she walked by him first time because he had grown so much due to being cured of it,it's a good job he was born a sturdy baby-fourteen and half pounds-everyone said..otherwise it would have been an entirely different story..isn't fate strange,I don't know how women coped then losing their babies..I suppose having immediate families around them helped a bit..things have changed now but not always for the better as far as families dispersing go...I like to think that I've always been fairly confident due to the fact that my Grandparents were only at the top of the Street and I could go there anytime until my Mam or Dad came home from work..the truth is that the one day that I would like with them would be spent asking the questions I should have asked like I said..and my Grandma would say in her lovely Irish lilt..Maureen me darlin'..your'e a nosy little divil aren't you.lol
