Ava went on to mourn his death in several Twitter posts, describing his addiction as being fueled by fame at a young age. She said he cried out for help, but tragically it didn’t prevent his death.
She also took the opportunity to lend a helping hand to anyone else struggling with addiction, posting phone numbers to hotlines and saying the disease ‘shouldn’t be shamed’, but rather discussed openly so folks can get the help they need before it’s too late.
Ethan had an addiction and addiction should not be shamed. I’m openly discussing his cause of death to save the next kid from a perc. He was so bright and so smart. He needed to live. He was more than his demons and you all are to. Please get help. Call 1-800-662-4357
