The ability to serve a Senior Service Mission with FamilySearch from home via the computer and internet. And to be able to access records from all over the world from my computer at home in order to grow my family tree and be able to do temple work for my ancestors.

All of my children have lived to adulthood. None of them died of measles, cholera, or whooping cough. None of them got polio or tuberculosis. In the past, 1/4 of the population had TB, which they called "consumption". The pandemic was so common that no one thought it was remarkable.
My daughters-in-law and I have all survived childbirth. Every single one of us. During WWI, more women died in childbirth than the men who died in the war, but it was so common that no one thought it was remarkable.
My premature grandchildren are alive and growing toward adulthood. President Kennedy's premature son Patrick only lived for a couple of days, but because of him, medical science began to pursue neonatology to help premature infants survive.
