My elderly uncle died of prostate cancer Sunday. It's bad enough to reach 91 with all the complications of aging, but then they have to throw prostate cancer on top of it.
Then last night, my 41-year-old nephew, my sister's youngest boy, died in a car crash while running from police near Ankeny. Clocked at 110 mph. He was a good kid, but he was diagnosed with schizophrenia when he was 18. If you know anything about that mental affliction, you know that people who have it are fine when they are medicated, but they often go off their medication because they just don't feel right when they're on it. So he was probably hearing voices again.
