In 1977, the small town of Dansville, Michigan, was shattered by a fire that killed a man in his sleep. But this wasn’t just another tragic house fire.

On the morning of August 17, 2021, the emergency room at Methodist Children’s Hospital in San Antonio, Texas, was bustling with the usual chaos of a busy hospital.
