    True but the odds are somebody from your family, friends or neighbours would notice. Somebody. Everybody (mostly) have somebody in their life, like a one person that keeps tabs on you.

    Terrible to think she died in a position that she had not a single person like this in her life…

      Maybe not two years, but if you move to a new place and no one knows you there, it might take a while before they know you’re dead. Even if people do check on you… a friend of mine’s mother, who didn’t have custody of her, died when she was in high school. She was the first person to check on her mom in two weeks and found her dead. She’d been dead for a long time.

      I mean I won’t actually care if this happens to me after I’m dead. There won’t be a me to care. But it’s still disturbing to think about.
