Yes, my aunt had it unfortunately. She was such an intelligent woman it sucks. She passed away earlier this year I'm just really glad my grandparents don't have it..

Must have been hard to lose a child. Its usually the inverse.

Oh sorry I meant great aunt. I had called her an aunt my entire life. I didn't even know that was the incorrect term to refer to your grandparent's siblings, I'm so stupid . But yeah losing a sister is hard too. Especially after my dad passed away in 2020. So she did lose a child. And like you said, it's usually the inverse yeah. That's how it's supposed to be. My grandparents suffered two great losses in such a short amount of time. I feel bad for them. But at least they're happy to have me.

Same with my great niece. When your niece is a year older than you and she has a kid early... you end up being a great uncle at the age of 21...

 

[RandAlThor]

Yes grandparents and parents.

Which makes things look not so great for me.

woah that's kinda confusing. I already found becoming an uncle at the age of 19 a big deal lol

That's really tough. I'm sorry

My grandfather had it, it hurt me so bad when he didn't know who I was. I couldn't visit him anymore after that.

 

[Michael]

I'm not exactly sure; but I think my sister has it.

 

[dark_tranquility]
