Well, hell
My mom just came and told me that it's likely my younger cousin [brother of my other younger cousin who passed away a year ago from an enlarged heart] may have meningitis. What kind of meningitis I'm not sure. If he does have it, I'm rooting for viral [since it's rarely fatal], but if he does have the more deadly form I'm sure he'll be okay. He's at the hospital right now, so I'm positive he's getting the treatment he needs.
I don't know if I'm sad about this news or not. Jake never really liked me [or so it seems] and is a disrespectful little brat. Sure, I don't hope nor want him to die [his parents have been through enough], but it doesn't really bother me that he may be extremely ill.
I felt like I died when I heard the news about his brother... I do not feel a lick of worry for Jake, however. Am I just calloused now? Or do I know that statistically speaking it's extremely unlikely that Jake has meningitis and that his parents have become extremely fretful over their younger son's health due to the fact that their older son's death could have been prevented?
