Green Christmas-Full Cemetary??

Published

That was what an elderly pt of mine told me yesterday...yes an old wives tale I am sure--even though one I have never heard before. Well let me tell ya--we did have a green christmas (I live in the North and we usually have snow) and people are dying left and right!! Our small towns obit page was 2 pages yesterday--normally we have maybe 3 or 4--people/not pages!!.

So whats the deal---are you all having more deaths than usual this past week??

Have you all ever heard any other old wives tales that tend to be true---besides the full moon one!!

My Grammy always said a green winter fills the graveyard. She died 2 weeks before christmas years ago. I believe it....maybe it is too warm and the germs don't get killed off or people go out more and spread the wealth so to speak.....................
