Imagine being named Kennedy...

With the death of Maeve Kennedy and her son Gideon, who went canoeing on a lake and did not come back alive, yet another incredible Kennedy story has become a fact. A summary. One thing is certain: you better not step on a plane if you carry this last name.

1. It starts with Joseph Jr. (brother of John F. Kennedy) who dies in 1944 when his plane explodes over England.

2. Four years later, their sister dies in a plane crash in southern France.

3. In 1963, John F. Kennedy is assassinated.

4. Five years later, the same fate befalls his brother Robert.

5. Joseph Kennedy II (son of Robert Kennedy) crashes his car in 1973, resulting in the death of a passenger.

6. Another son of Robert, Michael, dies in 1997 during a skiing accident.

7.  John F. Kennedy Jr. and his wife Carolyne Bessette die in a plane crash on their way to Martha's Vineyard.

8. John F. Kennedy's sister, Rosemary, had mental health issues. A lobotomy (brain surgery) was decided upon but it failed and she became paralyzed.

9. Did I already mention that John F.'s son died two days after birth?

10. Edward Jr., the son of Edward, had to have his leg amputated due to cancer when he was twelve.

11. David Kennedy, the son of Robert, died of an overdose.

12. Kara Kennedy, the daughter of Ted, was found dead at the age of 51 on a fitness machine.

13. A daughter-in-law of Robert committed suicide.

14. A granddaughter of Robert, Saoirse, died at the age of 22 from an overdose.

Let's hope that with the death of Maeve and Gideon, the curse of the Kennedys finally comes to an end.
