Major Cause of Death Options Missing

Author	Would like to see more conditions added to the list (yes, I know it's long already)

Anyway, there are some glaring omissions from the "cause of death" list, particularly for those working on genealogies that extend back before antibiotics became available. 1. Hepatitis / Liver Failure: Given that Nephritis / Kidney Failure is in the list, this omission surprises me. 2. Smallpox: For colonial-era genealogies, this is a huge omission. 3. I would separate Pneumonia and Tuberculosis (each separate from the other) from other respiratory issues. 4. Alzheimer's should also include other dementia illnesses, or make "Non-Alzheimer's dementia" a separate entry (this would be my preferred solution). There are others that come to mind, but we have the "Specify" field for a reason; that's why I'm fine with having "Cancer" as a single entry. GenoPro: Best. Genealogy. Software. Ever.
