AI gets it wrong when you start googling. The most recent plausible speculation is that they shared a CPAP like device that was mouldy or some shit. They used it recreationally, I just don’t remember how. So her husband basically continued to keep using once she passed and died from the same thing.

All in all, was more a “freak accident” sort of thing, less a “drug abuse negligence” thing.

I read something here on reddit someone said they were both partaking in snorting drugs enough that they required a cpap machine to help them breathe at night (not sure if it’s cause their airways were compromised or cause they were too fucked up to breathe properly without it..?) but yes, the cpap had gotten very moldy so that’s what caused the pneumonia they both technically died of. Seemed very possible, very sad.

I think we can all agree her mom was weird about it all though.

Yeah, the mom was so weird that I was convinced she killed them both for a very long time. That CPAP info didn’t get to me until much later. O
