Did you know that if you take every single person killed in a terrorist act around the world in the last 20 years -- and add to that every life that's been lost in the Middle East since the Six Day War in '67 -- and add to that every single American life we lost in Vietnam and Korea -- and every single other military conflict America's been involved in since then, Iraq, Afghanistan... If you take all those lives -- that we'd all have given so much to save -- you've still got to multiply them by two to get to the number of kids who die of malaria every single year.
This is a quote from an HBO movie I watched on TV that brought me to tears, called Mary and Martha, two mothers one American and one English who meet in Africa after the unexpected deaths of their sons from malaria. It also features a son in the movie and on the credits by Chastity Brown a wonderful blues, soul, country, eclectic artist that is a personal friend of my daughters. I don't know how to link anything but you can google Mary and Martha and Backroads Highways for further information.
Oh and I will take some of those ether refreshments please.
