Let's start from the beginning. It was 1960. His parents were born. They had a normal upbringing. They meet and fell in love. They wrote their own books and became a household name.
They had their first child in 1984. She was born with a rare condition known as Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome. This is where the child's body ages too fast. Most children only live to the age of 13.
They were devastated when she died. It had been two years since she died, and now in 1999 and they had their second child. Mark Thomas.
You may know some of his upbringing but you'll learn more when you need to.
It's 2008 and his parents died from an unknown cause. There was no autopsy or official report. They just say that they died from a heart attack.
And now he's at their funeral. I was there. I saw him. I swear I saw him smile. Even laughing. It made me sick. But then again you know how some people react inappropriately in serious situations, maybe that's what he was doing. Although he looked kind of happy to go to that orphanage.
