14
This is what I wrote on January 29, 2008:
I thought 2008 was going to be different. Jeff's brother was the Christmas Miracle. One day he was on life support, having strokes, and the family was thinking about pulling the plug. A week later he woke up, was breathing on his own and wanted a cigarette.
& & & & &
This morning when I got up, I checked the caller ID as per usual. There was a call from Jeff at 1:01AM. So I, of course, called my mom and asked her what that was all about. I hadn't even heard the phone ring last night. She said she had wanted to wait till later to tell me. Jeff's brother died. That's all I know. I'm pretty sure Mom didn't want to explain everything over the phone while she was at work, ya know?
This brings the death toll up to 14. From March 2007 - February 2008 there have been 14 people I have known personally that have died. If you want to include all the actors that have died, it brings the number up to 18. Then, if you include Mark's mom, who is dying and will probably die soon, the number is 19.
wtf?
