Nobody will believe that, I myself don't want to believe that...
My mother has some girl-friends from her childhood. 2 of them (2 sisters) are still living in the village in the East-Part of Germany, where my mother was born. They had a house. After the Second World War the state took them away their house, but after 1989 they got it back. For many years they were tenants in their house and employees in their textile-fabric behind their house. January 1978 we visited them. Today I got these sad news from my mother: There was a fire in their house, and after the fire OPs & skin transplantations were necessary. I hope, both sisters have survived. I don't know yet, if the fire had happened already in the terrible year 2012 or in this year, but I will ask my mother. 4 houses & apartments have been destroyed now by a fire since June 2012...
How many houses & apartments will burn as next? It will not stop. And we know all the victims personally. A fire is a nightmare. To be honest, my own wish would be: not to survive, if a fire would happen in our own home...
But I have to worry about something else: 2 female related people of my mother have died with only 46 years, her mother and her cousin (cancer and brain tumor). And I am 46 years old now. I have to worry, until my 47th birthday would come. If many people have died in a short time, we got these sad news always 3 times, this means, 3 people have died. And I have to worry, that a third female related person of my mother could die with only 46 years, too. I am the second-born child. The most female related people of my mother are much older now...
I am not yet away from my fears. I can only hope the best, that the life will not become more terrible than it is already...
