It’s so sad 😢. Sounds like she really tried hard to help her son. Wow, didn’t know she battled cancer too. I’ve always thought that she has an amazing voice 💗

[@Author_Alyssa_Taylor]

LeMarais88 -- I didn't know she even had a son! I looked up when she got the breast cancer wondering if she got it from watching helplessly over Beckett, but no, years too early for that. Agree with you, she seemed like she really tried.

That just brakes my heart ❤️ i will pray for you and your family. God bless you.

[@ruthschrager6052]

I continue to keep you all in my prayers!

[@Shayra2you]

I'm so very sorry

[@samanthatremellen7640]

Melissa is such an inspiration!

[@peachbellini2615]

Can you imagine being the son of Melissa with the DNA of Crosby ..two very talented groundbreaking artists.. that was probably a lot of pressure to live up to

[@michelleconcannon7584]

just looking at his facial features, Julie was the genetic mother of him.

"DNA of Crosby." 🎯
