Hello BYC members,
I just learned last night that my mom's dear friend lost her son and 20 yr grandson in a farming accident.
They raise pigs and were overcome by the deadly gas, hydrogen sulfide. There was a problem my mom tells me with the ventilating system and the father went in and didn't come back out.
His two sons were there, the 20 yr. old ran in to save his father and the 24 yr. old ran to the house to call for help. The 20 yr. old did not come back out either.
I found an article, outdated but has some interesting facts if you'd care to read:

This is for sure a tragic accident but if we could learn from each other...
Humbley,
Gretchen
