I misread this as "Ganja" and thought they dropped him in a tub of hash or something

Where can I get this treatment?

Sounds like they drowned him

The Ganges is an absolutely disgusting and horribly polluted river. It could easily be a dozen of other things that did it.

Hard to tell because it just says "he didn't survive the ritual" which to me implies it was at the river. A disease will take time.

This is just sad
Out of options they tried for the irrational miracle

Murder with extra steps to appear innocent.

Touch some fucking grass!

It's not like they wanted to murder him. They were just desperate. Having someone you love diagnosed with terminal cancer is pretty fucking tough, especially if it's your 7 year old child.

And you just 'know' that. How great must it be to be the chosen one.

You've clearly never seen the kind of animosity people try to hide about the burden of their disabled kids, or the people who keep them for the state paycheck.

Thank you for enlightening me Mr. Holmes! Truly brilliant detective work and understanding of the human condition, in between one shitpost and another. Where would the world be without keyboard detectives?
