3. Yes. Sadly, all of my ancestors are dead.
Except those still living, of course.

Is there some sort of support group for us?

11. I can't wait for them to find a cure for that.
People have been dying in my family for as long as I can trace back. My girlfriend's family also has a history of death, so, unfortunately, our kids one day will likely die, also. DAMN YOU BUSH!!!!

14. Hate to answer the question seriously but
in the late 80's within one year I lost my mom, brother, and father (the whole immediate family). As if that weren't enough, shortly thereafter 5 uncles, 3 aunts, a cousin, and a nephew, died. I'm down to one Aunt now, but I have a great wife and three wonderful children. Makes up for the other crap!

Ya know, to this day I still haven't found anyone who has lost their entire immediate family.

Humor me if you have and let me know, ok?

15. Aw Stew225
:hug:

I'm sorry to hear that. I lost my grandparents and aunt in a short period of time. It was the first week of college when my aunt and grandmother died! -- very hard.
