frown Aw I'm so sorry about that, that is really depressing..

What happened? Did you leave the game alone for a long time or was there not enough food in the fridge? Sometimes it just cant be helped.. they can get seriously ill quickly too.

I had a Weak 6 year old boy today that I hope is doing better now.. about to check on him.

I think they were all sick with stomach ache and maybe Loot got it bad. However they had plenty of food at least 900 units of food when I checked the fridge and I toped it up again.

Oh my goodness! I am so sorry to hear that! cry And what an e-mail you received from Goldi. I didn't know that kind even existed. What generation is your family in?

It's always a good idea to cure illness's as soon as they occur so that they don't develop into something serious. I check my peeps health bar before going to bed at night and if it looks like it's beginning to drop (indicating an illness is likely forming but not arrived) then I pause the game until I have time to monitor it better.

Yeah 900 units of food would typically last a family a lifetime, and you did cure their illnesses which means it just couldn't have been helped this time. frown

Sometimes even after they are cured the disease will come back because they are suffering from a serious or grave infection which is when a doctor consultation would be helpful.

Now that I have over $500,000 in this family I give anyone that gets sick the doctor consult.

Today the 6 year old in my game was sneezing and the rest of his family was sneezing as well, but he was the only one with a Weak status. I used the consult on him and it said he has a serious infection and needs the penicillin.

I'm sorry for your loss, Ann. That happened to me once too. I think I went too long without checking on them, and even though I cured the illness, I think my little five year old girl was too weak to survive. frown

Thank you for sharing your loss. So sad. I wonder if Loot's dislike of sleeping had anything to do with his early death?

I don't think his dislike of sleeping would contribute to the early death. When their health bar is emptied, I find that's when they pass away as opposed to happiness or energy.

Even at a full health bar, the older ones will pass away as well since they all have their time to go. I just don't think the children are programmed to naturally pass away.. at least I hope not. eek
