Losing a child is the greatest pain.
Yes it is😢😢😢
It truly is
I could believe that. Totally.
I cant imagine the pain. When my sister passed i had so much unresolved whys and unaswered questions. Its debilitating. But to have it be a child. Your only child. My heart goes out to you Regina
Regina is a class act. Always loved her.
Mary Tyler Moore lost her son at 27 years old, as a kid I remember being so impressed with her public courage and integrity. I get the same sincere vibe from Regina King, it's hard to put it into words but she manages to do so. Great actresses that give so much. Wishing Ms.King continued strength and eyes to the future, with her son always in her heart.
No parent should outlive their child.
I have lost 2.💔💔
@@kmm9721 My deepest condolences Ma'am,Sir . Im 91.Me n the Mrs have 5,12 grandkids. I pray nightly They outlive me. But only comfort I can offer n believe in? You n they WILL REUNITE someday in Eternity. God Bless.
@@alphaomega5909I don't understand this saying. Parents are the ones who give their child a guaranteed de@th sentence through their vile sex acts. They should definitely see the fruits of their labor.
I lost my firstborn son in 2010 to a reckless driver. From time to time, as a father, I still cry for my son. A parent's heart never heals from your child's death. We just learn to go on daily. 💕☹️
Oh my god, that is so sad. I can feel the pain in your words. I wish that you continue to move forward and find joy again!❤️❤️
Never feel bad if you still cry sometimes. Even decades n decades later. God Bless.
They may be gone, but that bond is never broken. We remember the joys, and it makes it hard to let go. As if we are making room for someone else to fill that space. The good thing about the heart is it expands. You can love so many, yet never replace anyone when they're gone. Our purpose is to touch one another. So when we have, we've done our jobs.
@@beautyRest1 thanks so much. 💕
@alphaomega5909 appreciated. Blessings to you also 🙏 ❤️
So thankful to see her back active. I can't imagine the insurmountable pain she's experiencing. Such a regal and beautiful force ❤ Sending love and light to Regina King.
I’m sincerely sorry for this amazing woman’s loss. I lost my sister in the same year, which was terrible, but can’t imagine losing a child. 💔
Feel the pain of the loss of her son Ian in her every word. May Ian RIP and God grant Regina the peace she needs and comfort in her soul.
Depression sucks , I envy people who don’t understand or experience depression,,, I’ve experienced 2 bad mental breakdowns, it was bad ..
Much love
@@Ivan-0000 thank you
@@MelBelle55 thank you so much, I appreciate that.. I’m still healing from the trauma ❤️🩹
I had one in my late 30 and I was able to overcome it
No matter what kind of difficult situation one may find oneself in, some opening, some opportunity to fight one’s way out, can always be found. What’s most important is to hold fast to hope, to face the future with courage.
I love this woman. Keeping her in my prayers. No parent should ever have to bury a child.
I'm so hurt for you. Watched you on 227, and you have grown into a beautiful woman!
Thank you for sharing ❤ I'm also a grieving mother. My prayers are with her🙏🏽❤️👼🏽🙏🏽
🙏🙏🙏
My mother has lost two children. My oldest brother had a heart attack (2010) and my middle brother was murdered during an home invasion (1997)
I still see the pain she has..
I have so much empathy and respect for Regina King.
I am so sorry, you are not alone. Love you.
I just want to reach out and just hug her. Saying nothing. Just hug her and shed tears in condolence. This dear soul. Gosh. The grief is something I can only just imagine. Ouf! Beautiful report Robin Roberts. May God be with her in this time. 😢
Best way to look at this tragedy. It was his choice and to respect that no matter how hard is still the best way to respect him. I lost someone who took his life at 23. He was a young black man who had carried a lot of weight from his childhood. Even though he was ready to graduate college and help other children, I never imagined he would take his life. I was mad at him because I looked up to him. After time I realized that his pain was just too heavy for any of us to understand. I’m no longer mad but I do talk to him. I just got thru cancer and thru every low point there was also a rainbow 🌈 and that reminds me why you keep going and if you can weather the storm you will see rainbows
I just love this woman, always have. I'm so sorry she lost her boy. What a graceful and loving person she is.
She articulates and speaks so well
Thank you Ian’s mom to put simple words on this tortuous journey »; « Grief is love that has no place to go »
Sending love to you beautiful lady
She's amazing. And her playing Shirley is perfect. The way she talks about her son is so loving and heartfelt. ❤️☮️

Grief is a long process. Losing someone does indeed change you. Losing my mom 5 years ago, I still struggle to feel what I was like 6 years ago. Never been the same. You still have your moments with grief so you still have to deal with it for a moment and then you pick up the pieces to go back to living
REGINA GOD BLESS U. My husband and I walk on eggshells everyday and I’m hurt. My son is an amazing human being only 26 Yrs old and is struggling since he was 12 with depression. Yet nobody would know He is such a beautiful soul and still manages to work get therapy advocate for his mental health. But tells us he struggles. Our only child It’s hard. Listening to her say what she is saying. It is hard to hear. we are there for him always and scary to think he gives up I have always liked her in movies. But now I really respect her.
The way this amazing woman overcomes and recognizes what space she is in now, is remarkable and commendable. Regina King…..you are inspiring and pivotal in handling sadness.❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love her, praying for her❤
her finger on her pulse while speaking of her son...and her using of the words "his choice" is eye opening. One the finger to ground herself while speaking is a mindfulness practice. Understanding what he was dealing with that only she knows and being able to see the pain being too much for him and that it wasn't selfish but it was his choice. No amount of speculating will change it. May he be at peace free from the pain he felt here.
Moving. Bittersweet. Profound. Sending my prayers and heartfelt thoughts to Regina!❤🩹💗🙏
Regina king is glowing
"Grief is love without a place to go." So true. As a person with severe depression, I know the struggle. TO ALL MY SISTERS AND BROTHERS WITH DEPRESSION. IN THE WORDS OF WILSON PHILLIPS "HOLD ON FOR ONE MORE DAY, THINGS WILL GO YOIR WAY" Go listen to that song btw, its a whole pick me up.
My 3 words: I love Regina! #icon #loved #Reginaking #uncondtionally
Grief is the price we pay for love!
God Bless you.. I lost my brother the same way.. God is with you!
❤ Thank you for sharing your pain and great words with us. I wish you all joy and peace ❤.Sorry for the loss of your brother !
I lost my mom in 2022 to Cancer on Mother’s Day and when she passed away a piece of me left with her. When Regina King said “grief is a journey and it’s love that has no place to go “. I can truly resonate with that. Everyday is a struggle but you learn to live with it. Prayers for continued healing, peace and understanding for her and all those who have lost loved ones near and dear to their heart.🙏🏽
Nuff nuff luv Regina💕🙏🏾💕
Such a beautiful woman 😢😢😢...No one deserves this kindof pain....
Knowing this pain personally, having a heart full of pure love so that when it breaks there is enough to keep living. It changes your normality.
Thank you for sharing.❤!
I am happy that she was honest that they were struggling with this for a while. I thought he just had a sudden break. Very sorry for her loss but respect her for telling us about their journey. She did all that she could do and she has nothing to be ashamed of. May God continue to bless and keep her.
Loved her in a thin line btn luv n hate 96' she was amazing🇹🇿🇺🇸
Hugs and praying for her strength and mental health🙏🏾
My deepest deepest sympathies condolences to her and her family . May God be with her son Amen RIP 💐💐♥️💖💖🙏🙏
I used to live in Glendale Ca. At the Galleria Mall her and her son zipped right by me, I think that was in 2003? I've have always had a crazy crush on her growing up in the 80s when she was on 227. Very beautiful woman, that's doing great things in Hollywood and for the world. But losing a child? I couldn't imagine that level of pain, stay strong and let God lead you through it.
Regina sending you hugs and love sis❤
Her speaking about Ian in the present resonated to me. I’ve learned to soften sorrow with talking about my loved ones who are at rest in the present. I loved the term “Happy Sorrow.”. 🕊️🕊️
Excellent story dudes!!🥇🥇🥇🥇
Sorry for your loss Regina it must have been a hard time for you.justlistening to you makes me cry.although you are still struggling to accept what had happen.you are Avery Strong woman.pray god's help to carry through.abig fan of yours from room two two seven into now. Al the way from Jamaica blessings my love.❤😂❤❤❤
It's just so difficult to imagine his pain
Bless you.
I’m crying with you beautiful mother. Cry when you need to cry, go away in silence when you need to be quiet. Tell your son you love him anytime you feel. I’m praying for you and with you. Two beautiful souls that will meet again ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Loving you and keeping you in prayer.❤
I am not a mother and have no experience in carrying, birthing and raising a child. However, I am certain that the loss of a child is a wound that can never be fully healed. I do hope and pray that she is surrounded by so much love, joy and happiness. Perhaps that can lessen the pain that the heart feels. ❤❤❤
Such a sad event and i think about suicidlity too for my kinds, a friend, myself sometimes. Really appreciate all she says here.
Praying for you Regina since it first happened
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾love you Regina.
She'll always be Ians mom. So classy!
😓💔
It's a pain in my that's never-ending son murdered,his brother committed suicide and his daughter my grandbaby then committed suicide , l have ripped my inside out trying to understand why I didn't go before my children now I have lost the ability to think or feel, but I can relate to loss around the world
One day at a time…
❤❤❤❤
Lord, Please give those reading this love and blessings without end. Bring contentment in their life, comfort them of strife, always keep them safe, secure, let their path to You be sure. Lord, I pray they will be close to you, eternally. Isaiah 41:10 (NIV)"So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." Amen
My condolences to Regina. Revelation

It wasn’t GOD it was a choice GOD gives us choices I hate he made that choice I’m truly sorry for her loss 😢
Its the way it happened that makes it all the worse. It wasnt a passing.
Not only do they not know her, it's millions of others and it's by designed by a system that is working perfectly as it was designed, we have to keep searching daily, The slave and slavemaster are not the same and have very little in common beside freedom of thought and movement!!!
hmmm … okay
Different & Same. Different & Same. & stop telling me & us to be loyal & honest with everything. No. Stop telling me that. I'm loyal & honest to me with everything. Stop telling me that. You be loyal & honest with everything. Shut up. I’m smart, good. You're smart, good. Stop treating me different, negative, bad, disrespect. You'll treat me & I'll treat myself the same, positive, good, respect. I'll treat you different, negative, bad, disrespect. & stop joking around me. I'll joke around you. I'll joke for good. You don't joke for good.
do you need someone to listen to you? Your rant and ramble seems concerning.
🫶💗🙏
Are they gonna give a wendy williams easter egg!? Only real ones know that story!
I see more famous kids committing suicide, and more poor kids going towards crime and violence. I think this should be discussed because in the end they are calling out for help? Sensitive topic... I just don't have an answer.
Agreed
I lost my Son 10 yrs ago..I haven't been the same ..My heart wàs truly broken but because of my faith and my support gro Griefshare..I've been able to stay on the journey to...Live...and help others as a Team grief counselor....Gods Strength..Mercy and Grace ..Now I just lost Dad ...I feel that brokenness again..but trusting the process for healing the pain in Grief 🙏🏽♥️ Prayers to those ppl and Families experiencing bereavement and loss🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️♥️
When 2 people are forcing another life into the world (yes, its by force because u are creating someone without their permission/consent) u are playing a BIG BIG gamble!!!! Your child is NOT obligated to like life just because of YOUR choices & that does NOT automatically make someone mentally ill. I would say the people who are desensitized to the way life operates in this hellscape dystopia are the ones who are truly mentally ill.
I understand what you are saying; however, giving someone else life is not a gamble since most people live productive lives.
We will love you forever Ms. King. You honor us with your work and integrity. Both Ian and Ms. Chisholm are so proud! May you remain unbought. #WakeUp ⏰⏰⏰#BlackAwakening #SaveTheChildren 🚸#EndTheSiege #StopTheBombs #FreePalestine 🍉🍉🍉#FreeCongo #FreeSudan #WeChargeGenocide 🩸🩸🩸 #AgentOrange 🛢#AaronBushnell 🕊#GenZ #BlackGirlSpook 🥸👻
I dont understand how you blame God when the devil is next to you.
Satan comes to steal, kill, and destroy...not GOD! Jesus said that he came to give us LIFE and that more abundantly.
The most high God had nothing to do with him being depressed,but the god of this world had everything to do with it,and his name is lucifer so that the god she's referring to God is Love and life he's not heavy and depressed and he definitely don't put anything on anyone that they cannot bare.
Free Free Palestine
Pretender.
Robin Roberts sure got a Manly Sounding Voice!
Question
Was her son
Gay
🤔
No.
doesn't matter. stupid question.
Illuminati sacrifice
Exactly. And people will continue to fail to realize this.
and if you're hearing The Boondocks when she speaks....it's because she voices Huey Freeman
