Cape Town — As Lynn Forbes walks the tough road of trying to deal with her son’s death, she revealed the most unhelpful comments that she receives.
AKA’s mom said that she is struggling to cope with her son’s death, pointing out that some days are better than others.
“Some days I’m a warrior. Some days I’m a broken mess. Most days I’m a bit of both, but everyday I have to be here standing. Fighting. Trying,” she said.
Forbes then highlighted the “most unhelpful well-intended comments”.

However, as she tries to handle the loss of such a large part of her life, the mother of the slain rapper shared what the most beneficial comment she heard was.
