Teenage girl dies of burn injuries from California - Taylor Knighton

   A young teenage girl sadly died in the hospital three weeks later due to severe burns from a California wildfire in Mendocino County, California raising the number of those who sadly lost their lives to the state's wildfires this month to 43. The young woman who sadly lost her life is Kressa Shepard,17, she died Sunday night at a Sacramento Hospital. Sadly her young 14-year-old brother died due to the fire as well and her parents were severely burned but they are still alive. 

 This breaks my heart into a thousand pieces because these people in California are losing their life to the terrible wildfires. We need to figure out how to prevent and stop these from occurring. This relates to U.S history because wildfires have been happening for a while and taking precious lives as well as these recent ones.
