I remember I was about seven years old and Eddie was around ten. Just before we went to bed we watched this news report about how a particular religious group had predicted that night as the day of Armageddon. Being seven years old I was scared of the thought, so I ended up climbing into the top bunk with Eddie. I laid there for a moment still unable to sleep, so I nudge Eddie and let him know that I was scared of it. His solution was for me to go to sleep. The reason being that, "if you go to sleep now, it won't hurt as much if it's true." His logic made sense to me, so I ended up sleeping comfortably and eventually woke up.
Even at ten years old Eddie had a sound mind and knew how to ease my nerves. Again, thanks for everything Eddie.
