I'm so sorry to hear that you have suffered the loss of three people in just the past month. How are you and your loved ones coping?
As far as the question that "death comes in three's", there are many folk lores, stories and superstitions about death, probably because death is such a difficult subject to talk about.
A few other superstitions surrounding death:
- You should never sleep with your head in North position or you will have a short life (this is the way a body is laid out at funeral).
- You should never write a persons name in red ink.
Regarding the "death in 3's", I would assume it depends on the time frame and other circumstances: if the three people die in one day, one month or five years of each other; if they are all in the same family, same place of work?
Lastly, I think it depends on everyone's different belief systems, but this could be a scary thing to believe in. I did not find any historical reasons for the 3's.
But, more importantly, I am truly sorry that you had to go through this, no matter what the number. I hope to hear how you are doing.
