poe traumatic event

edgar allen poe was a strange guy to me but a incredible poet at the same time i guess thats why they often call the great minds crazy. but his life took many paths so the things he went through some could say that made him crazy. for one it could have been him not knowing his parents his mom died early around the age of three and his dad just left the family this could have made him mad. then he was separated from his brother and sister and forced to stay with john allen a successful tobacco merchant. but i believed the thing that scarred him the most is that every woman in his life that he grew close to died from tuberculosis including his mom. that will make you go crazy because the same thing happen over and over again just a different woman in his life then what makes it worse that they all died from the same disease. so i understand that part because for me i am scarred from the passing of my loved ones who played vitals roles in the man i am today like my grant aunts and grandma and my twin sister so i understand the feeling just in a different way.
