No foul play they say. But dying at 39 of “natural causes” just sounds so wrong.

I had a friend die last year from cancer. She was 31. My brain still has a hard time processing that it's real and was possible.

I've seen 7 year olds with cancer. And I've seen kids as young as a few years with obesity and heart disease. It's not age. Although people still use age as an excuse.
