Eddie hasn't had an easy year
First his father dies. Then his best friend Billy accidentally kicks a
stack of Sheetrock over on himself, breaking his neck and effectively
hitting tilt on his Earthgame. Eddie and Billy were inseparable. Still
are. Billy isn't going to let a little thing like death stop him from
hanging in there with his friend. And when Eddie faces an epic struggle
with the powers that be, Billy will remain right there beside him.
