"I'm Going Slightly Mad!"
Hi all,
I feel like I'm going mad with this and I have no-one I can talk to about it, so I'm going to try here, then you tell me if I've gone crazy!
I'm a massive fan of a certain actor and have been for about five years. When I first discovered him I wanted to know more about his work so I read up on him and found out that he'd had a short illness in 2017 but he'd recovered. This was still true a couple of months ago when I Googled him to see how he was doing. I even found a post on here saying he was still attending conventions and even going to hospitals to sit with sick kids. Present tense.
However, early yesterday morning that all changed. I'd left a Web page open and suddenly it said, "In memorium". All the blood just drained out of my body, and I quickly Googled it and he apparently died last week! To say I was devastated would be an understatement! I was so floored I completely forgot about what I've written above, until last night when it popped back into my mind.
But it gets stranger. Apparently the illness he recovered from in 2017 now happend in 2018. And now it's not a mild illness, he had a stroke which he never recovered from, even going as far as him being bedridden for the last few years! How the hell does this happen?! A man I know was healthy not two months ago has been really, really ill for eight years?! I can't square this circle and it's driving me insane!
I've experienced the odd weird thing, but never on this scale. I feel like I've been robbed of the opportunity of meeting my favourite actor because the bloody simulation or Mandela Effect whatever has decided that THIS is the one person to screw around with!
Right, I've got it off my chest. Has anyone else had this kind of extreme ME? I keep hoping I'll get punted back into the reality where he's still alive! That happened to anyone, where it's righted itself? I'd love to know how others deal with this madness!
Cheers!
