Please donate if you can. This is a very sad thing that happened to someone in my town.
Update: I don’t know why things happen the way they do..or why we go through what we go through.. but all we can truly do is give our lives to God and fight as best we can to be better people everyday. I know my brother made a deep unforgettable mark on this earth, and no matter what he will always have that mark with us all.
Today at 3:54 pm Joshua passed away and went to be with God..
I know in my heart he lived a very happy and amazing life with so much love and we thank you all for the prayers…
Right now me and my family’s heart aches and it is a pain that is truly un-describable.
We just ask everyone respects our time to grieve as much as we can and we will give everyone the details about his Vigil we have coming up, then funeral.
We will also be changing his gofundme account from his medical bills to his funeral costs, so if everyone could keep that in mind that would be a blessing.
I know my amazing brother will rest in peace with God, sharing his love in heaven..
I love you Josh, and I’m so sorry I couldn’t be there that night to protect you..
Original: The Wilson Family and Joshua Wilson need your help. Loving Joshua currently sits in the hospital fighting for his life. On Nov 5th, Joshua was at a friends house, being friendly and loving as Joshua always is, making jokes and having people laugh, trying to spread his love, and there was a male at the party who was offended by Josh’s forwardness for being himself. (His name won’t be mentioned in this article for it is currently under police investigation but later WILL be revealed) Josh had dealt with hate crimes twice now, and he felt more comfortable NOW in his life than ever. As every person should. Josh didn’t understand why the man fealt offended, when he was just trying to make him laugh, spreading positivty and love. BUT instead, this male took it as josh “hitting” on him, and he’s “not about that gay sh**” so instead, he struck Josh in his face. (This male is a proffesional MMA fighter, so he shouldn’t be fighting anyone regardless, unless it’s in a ring, let alone for a hate crime.) Josh goes back- and down. He was unprepared to be struck, let alone with such force. Blood was already dripping, but after two other hate crimes, Josh didn’t wanna just be stepped on like in his past. He tried to get back up and defend himself, and the male took him down just as easy with multiple punches being thrown, and Josh went down again, except this time from the last punch, his head hit a counter top. All the people in the house, instead of stopping the fight, pulled out their phones for “snapchat” and recorded it and took pictures. It’s sickeninng to think this is what people choose to do now in a time a strife. After the fight was over, people ran over to check on Joshua, and from what the male who assaulted Josh took it as, was another “ass whooping given” but what he hadn’t realzed was 1:Josh didn’t land a single blow, but merely was trying to stand up for himself and 2: He had just given Josh a broken nose, a fractured cheek bone, a severe concsuion and a swollen eye. Blood was everywhere from Josh and the man shortly made a facebook status posting “Does anyone know how to get blood out of a hat? lol” Yes, it was the farthest from funny. As Josh arose from the fight, he was acting very irrate. People were asking, what was wrong? As Josh was everywhere. What they hadn’t realized was that he suffered a severe concussion. The owner of the house saw Josh dripping blood and forced him out of his house. It was freezing outside, Josh was now locked outside the house alone. Josh also had taken his shirt off because there was so much blood, and now his shirt was even left in the house.
He was freezing and confused, so joshua, goes back to knock saying, please let me in, I need help. The man opens the door, and punches josh, and he goes down again. (This mans name later to be revealed pending the investigation) After, Josh dials 911. Then Josh’s phone was taken by someone currently unknown and he losses the call. 911 eventually traces his call and they show up. JOSH being confused and damaged is speaking with the officer in a confused manner. The officer asked josh if he wanted medical attention and Joshua respectfully declined. He was hurt and embarrased, he just wanted to go home. The officer couldn’t drive him home, and Josh didn’t wanna tell on anyone in the house to get them in trouble so the officer leaves. Shortly After, Josh is able to retrieve his phone and jumps in his car, beaten and confused. (Joshua had just suffered alot of damage and should not have been driving.) He instead, after so much pain he felt, and crying, tries to drive to his family. He dials his mothers number, and passes out behind the wheel, hitting a pole at full speed and flying through the windshield.. and this is what leads us to where we are. Joshua, is currently fighting for his life and we need your prayers, help and support. He has suffered multiple injuries, including; A lumbar fracture, 2 brain bruises, a broken cheek bone, a broken nose, bleeding in the brian, sweeling in the brain, a torn blood vessel and a fractured shoulder. The doctors told the family Josh wouldn’t make it from the swelling in his brain, Josh has already passed the swelling and is pushing forward!
These hate crimes in this world have to stop, and we need #JUSTICEFORJOSH
PLEASE share this story and send as much love and support as you can as Joshua fights for his life and wins this battle!
We will keep everyone as up to date as we can on his condition, and the family thanks you for all the support!
So far, Josh is winning this battle, and the Wilson family knows in their hearts, they will still have the positivty and love of Josh to spread joy on this planet- and proud to be gay AND Joshua Wilson.
