Early Onset

A 10 year old girl meets with her doctor. The doctor tells her “Katie, I’m sorry to have to tell you that your parents didn’t survive the accident. Sadly, our tests also show that you have early onset Alzheimer’s disease.”

Katie replies “well at least my parents will look after me.”

Listen up, genius. So, this youngin', Katie, gets the double whammy: dead parents AND Alzheimer's. She tries to make it sound better by saying her parents will take care of her, but she forgot they are dead as a doornail. It's dark because it's funny AND sad, which is probably how people would describe you, my friend.
