Hi Susan, A lot depends on where you have entered the medical information. You may have made a special event for various illnesses (I have one to record blindness/glaucoma in one branch of my family. In earlier generations I don't have the diagnoses but they a number either had very poor eyesight or went blind - in the previous generation there are many cases of glaucoma) You may have just entered the information in Medical Notes. Cause of Death may be relevant. Or you may have used General Notes.
Another consideration is whether the people concerned all belong to the one branch of the family so you can capture them all in a descendant report or whether several branches are involved. You may need a chart to show the relationships and a Descendant Report with the notes. If you've used events to record the information, you could edit other event types (in the Master Event Definition list would be the quickest) to be private so they weren't included. Or you may be able to use a Legacy Charting Chart and add text boxes for the notes and copy and paste them to the chart. or Save a Legacy Chart report to text and then work in your Word processor. How easy it is depends on how you've entered the data.
