He recounts being kicked out on Christmas Eve and his younger brother, Nathan, being taken into foster care — a system often entangled in state-funded health coverage, pediatric trauma assessments, and psychological evaluations.
Despite these painful memories, he acknowledges his dislike for their “dysfunctional relationship” and extends forgiveness, saying: “But ma, I forgive you, so does Nathan yo… Foster care, that cross you bare, few may be as heavy as yours.”
He concludes the apology with a moving sentiment: “But I love you Debbie Mathers, oh what a tangled web we have…”
Debbie herself had previously spoken about the possibility of reconciliation, stating: “I’m not ever gonna give up on my kids. I won’t give up on anybody…” — a quote that reflects the power of resilience often discussed in chronic mental illness management plans.
Sadly, Debbie passed away in December of 2024 at the age of 69 — an age group commonly associated with increased long-term care insurance premiums, elder wellness services, and potential geriatric diagnostic testing for chronic conditions.
