@Aisling Thousands of ways of being a vampire here in Germany as well. But sometimes, when you're close to someone, you just feel that something's wrong... I had this with my grandpa. The first time, I came home from school. I went upstairs to our flat and I had the sudden thought, 'Grandpa's at the hospital. He broke his hip again.' Somewhat later that day, my aunt sent a text message. It said that my grandpa was at the hospital with a broken hip...
The second time was somewhat later, in the morning. I had a strange pain in the region where the gallbladder is. Ten minutes later, my aunt called. My grandpa was at the hospital again. This time, he had gallstones...
The third time was while I was on a class trip, about an hour of driving away from grandpa. In the evening, I felt that something was wrong with grandpa, and that I had to call my mother immediately. I did call her, but I didn't ask about grandpa... I feared that she wouldn't believe me. After hanging up, I thought, 'If something was wrong, she'd have told me.' Well. The next day, when she picked me up, she said, "We had to take grandpa to the hospital yesterday night. His gallbladder has perforated."
