Edward wanted to be a soldier and fight in WWI while he was growing up. That changed, however, when he and his parents fell sick of the Spanish influenza in 1918. His father, Edward Masen Sr., died in the first wave of the influenza. Before she died, Edward's mother, Elizabeth, asked the physician who was taking care of them, Dr. Carlisle Cullen, to do everything within his power to save her son. Carlisle acted on her wishes when Edward was near death himself. He took Edward from the hospital, brought him to his house and changed him into a vampire. Edward had a rebellious period at the beginning of his vampire life and used his mind 阅读 ability to attack the worst people of society. He later regretted this decision and returned to Carlisle's way of life in which animals' blood, not humans', is their 来源 of sustenance . Over the 下一个 80 to 90 years, additional 吸血鬼 were created 由 Carlisle as a last resort for the nearly dead and left-for-dead and they became part of the Cullen family, known to 吸血鬼 as a coven. Esme, a distraught, grieving mother of a dead child, became Carlisle's mate and Edward's adoptive mother. Rosalie Hale, a would-be socialite intended as Edward's mate, never became 更多 to him than a sibling. Emmett Cullen became Edward's adoptive brother after Rosalie found him near death from a 熊 attack and fell in 爱情 with him. Already vampires, Jasper Hale and Alice Cullen sought out and found the Cullens and adopted themselves into the family. Edward, the only member of his family without a mate, never felt a connection to anyone in that way, although in his human life he'd expected that he would marry young, as was the norm. However, that changed when he met Isabella "Bella" 天鹅 and fell in 爱情 with her. He was afraid that he would succumb to his true nature and threaten to expose his family 由 attacking Bella, who forced him to take rash actions to avoid this.
