Aibu to be thinking this?

I live in a rural place with around a population of 1000. In the past 5 yrs I have known two mothers from nursery and one Dad from school die from cancer, one child murdered, two people die in road accidents one known to me and the other one a stranger but a friend was the other party in the collision and another person fatally injured in a freak accident. AIBU to think statistically this is a hell of a lot of tragedy for one small place.

AIBU to feel I want to run and not look back. It is scaring the shit out of me.

Do you live in a place called 'Midsomer'?

Do you live in emmerdale?

You don't live in cabot cove do you?

Oh bugger I posted on your other thread! You know youve started two?

Wish it was a soap

Can't help thinking wtf? I mean such a small population yet such sadness. Not sure why. Bloody depressing though.

I think you are more aware of what is going on because it is quite a close knit community. I would think that the rate of cancer is probably sadly on par with national statistics.
Unfortunately no one can run from death.

That said YANBU to want to try!

I think its just called life.

The cancer thing I can perhaps comprehend although two mothers in their 30's both breast cancer. Awful. Little nursery class of 15 with two little souls both lost a Mummy within the same yr.

But the accidents etc. Can't help but feel the place is unlucky. Maybe I just need to get away or I will feel reminded of all the sadness.

Horrible feeling though wanting to run but knowing there is no where to run. Ooft... depressing myself!
