Hey [livejournal.com profile] buscemi (or anyone else who might know), do you remember a Peanuts character ever dying? Someone sent me this e-mail, and I think she and her dad are probably on goofballs or mixing up Peanuts with Marmaduke or Wizard of Id or some shit.

subject: peanuts related question

Ok, I read you rpage, and I have a bizarre question. Was there a story line that was based on a death of someone close to Charles Schultz? We are trying to figure this out, my dad seems to remember a very sad story when he was growing up, and can't remember alot about it. Thanks for your time.

I think Charlie Brown went to visit a girl in the hospital once. I don't know the rest of the story.

Ohhhh yeah, I bet that's what she's talking about--the Snoopy, Come Home storyline.

They have a Peanuts video about, um... leukemia? I think? Our school did some sort of nationally-affiliated fundraiser and they showed the video as part of their intro presentation. Charlie Brown & some of the others go to visit a little girl from their class in the hospital in that one, but she winds up recovering.
