The curse of the 2004 class
I thought I'd take a moment to write about something that kind of freaks me out. 4 people have died from my graduating class at my high school (two before we graduated and two since), and I just found out today that another guy (Kyle) who graduated with us and also went to school with me since kindergarten has been diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of cancer that I both can't pronounce and have never heard of.
On November 11th 1999 at the age of 13 my friend Alex died of a stroke in his sleep
On February 7th 2004 Katy died of cancer
In November of 2004 Martin took his own life
and on August 31st 2006 Alex was killed in a car accident
I can't help but feel like my year is cursed and it actually freaks me out. More and more do I hear about my friends getting sick or worse and I can't help but think.... it's not possible that THIS is average.
The first funeral I ever attended was for a 13 year old boy. It's not supposed to be like that.
I guess what really bothers me still is that just three months ago when Ben faked his own death he thought that it was a fun joke and everyone could deal with it.
I can't deal with this anymore. I shouldn't have to be dealing with it now.
