Post a random truth about your family besides parents.

My great uncle died of Parkinsons Disease.

My distant cousin committed suicide about 3 years ago because her husband had a lover. She (cousin not lover) had 3 children with him.

My mom's first cousin had a wealthy husband who a couple of years ago set out on a trip to Africa but the plane crashed and he was killed.

My two very distant male relatives (brothers to each other) as for one of whom I know he's currently deceased while the other one may or may be not still alive, I have no idea, were both mentally ill. One of them in addition had problems with law as he once robbed a church.

My half sister has selective mutism.

My mother's mother appears some Asperger's traits.

My brother-in-law is in his mid 20s and likes Ninja Turtles.

My little 9 month old niece has reached all of milestones, ahead of time.

My brother has a mail order bride.

Today my cousin who is 10, turning 11 in a couple of weeks and whose parents are divorcing, was taken to a foster family - out of a sudden, nobody expected this.

Two of my relatives used names different than those they were given. My mom's first cousin used to be known to me as Jarek while in fact his real name is Mariusz. Her other first cousin used to have a husband who died in an accident when I was 8 and about whom I thought he had a different name than this which he really had - I don't remember well but I think the name he preferred to use was Mirek while he was named Emil. I found this out when I saw his obituary which referred to him as to Emil.

I know about somebody low-functioning. He is about 40. I don't know if we have any common genes, but I know he is.

My oldest male cousin fixes computers.

I have four first cousins, and I've never met any of them; one saw me when I was five and sleeping at an aunt's house, but that's as close as it gets.

My little sis is a daycare worker. Good on her! I'm proud of her.

My cousin met her future husband in the loony bin.

My other cousin used to stay inside to watch film-noir night on TCM when she was twelve.

My uncle built his families house by hand. His wife left him and he moved out less then three years later.

Okay, so that's three random truths.
