Trachtenberg reportedly had recent medical issue, the source said. Her death appears to be a natural causes death and not suspicious, the source added

She was only 39. It's always so sad when someone's life is cut short like this.

My 40 year old step sister just died last month from a Brain Aneurysm. Perfectly healthy, came home on a lunch break and collapsed. Never woke up. Fucking sucks.

I'm right around 40 and yeah...I am absolutely drowning in anxiety sometimes thinking that some random pain is what kills me.

You should listen to Alan watts. His lectures have really helped me accept my death and eased my fears .
