Rate me any kind of stupid, but I've been looking around a little bit, and am I correct in saying Jessica has made zero acknowledgement of Josh's death? I'd imagine she's self-aware enough to know people hate her for her relationship with Josh (and I don't believe for a nanosecond that she knowingly sent poison seeds to him to poison him.), but nothing? She must be scared shitless to show herself anywhere online. Unless I'm just dumb and haven't seen her.
I stopped following Josh when the Jessica arc got real crazy and depressing (around when Aaron died), so I missed the whole Walt thing and don't even know who he is...came back when Ozzy died, and I was shocked at how Josh had deteriorated. I'm in recovery a looong time (like before Josh was born) and I get no joy from just watching a drunk be drunk. When he was semi-in-his-right-mind and not drinking hard liquor all day he was funny, and there was hope that he'd decide one day he was "sick and tired of being sick and tired".
Having said all that, my money's on appendicitis. Which is horrible, because even in his shitty physical shape he'd have most likely gone through surgery just fine, with the added benefit of being sober for a few days and maybe getting some of the wrinkles out of his brain. And I know his phone was broken, but if it wasn't smashed to smithereens he should've been able to call 911; I think it's the law that even phones that are out of service have to be able to call 911.
Anyway, too much from me, but I'm just thinking too much. The fuckers who sent him Everclear etc are mighty quiet these days but God isn't mocked.
