On the same day I grieve about Lucky

I read this advertisement in the National:
"Port Moresby General Hospital
Public Notice.
The PMGH is currently overcrowded with corpses. The general public is advised that the number of unclaimed corpses in storage stands at 39 adults and 33 babies. The Morgue has gone beyond its average capacity with lengthy stays of the bodies. Relatives of the deceased are urged to come forward and claim the bodies within one week of this notice or all unclaimed bodies will be subject to mass burial. The 73 names of corpses listed above are due for mass burial by NCDC after one week of the date of this notice. The general public is asked to compile to this notice or inform appropriate concerned relative of the deceased.
Thank you.
CEO."
