He got a new heart and something crazy happened.

In 1995, Sonny Graham, a 57-year-old South Carolinian, was dying of heart failure when he received a transplant from 33-year-old Terry Cottle, who’d shot himself in the head with a shotgun. Grateful, Graham wrote anonymous letters to Cottle’s widow, Cheryl, and met her in 1997. Sparks flew despite her grief, and after her next marriage crumbled, they wed in 2004, blending their families under one roof.Graham thrived, but whispers of eerie changes—like a sudden craving for beer and hot dogs, Cottle’s favorites—followed him. Then, on April 1, 2008, in a chilling echo of his donor’s fate, 69-year-old Graham was found dead in his shed, a shotgun wound to his neck. Ruled a suicide, the haunting parallel—same heart, same wife, same violent end—left many uneasy. Some whispered of “cellular memory” or a cursed connection, though no evidence backed such claims. Just a grim twist of fate in a house now shadowed by two tragedies.
