I just moved last summer and ever since then 3 people from my home town have died that i know.  One of them was a good guy and skiied with me once or twice last season.  It only hit me this summer that there is a rediculous amount of people dying from around my hometown within a year or two of my age.

-17 deaths due to car accidents
-1 suicide
-5 deaths due to medical conditions

in a big city this prob wouldnt be as weird but this is a small area im talking about and everyone accounted for is within a year or 2 above or below my age.  the fact that all the deaths are so close together makes it weirder.

anyone have similiar things happen to them?

the way i see it, the world is getting to be a very dangerous place, also the population is growing witch means there is and will be more cases of kids with cancer, kids committing suicide, kids getting in car accidents, etc.

yeah, we've had what seems to be a rise in suicides as well. it's so tragic, any way you look at it, i mean, there's the loss itself, and then the friends/family blaming themselves, asking "what if..." and it never goes anywhere. uuuh. suicide is just one of the saddest things to see the aftereffects of.

i mean, a few years ago, when i wasn't doing so well, i used to consider suicide, but when this kid at my school did, and i saw the huge effect it had on everybody, and the effect it had on me, it really turned around my whole lifeview, i have a bit more of a positive outlook now, to say the least.
