Ops... That's right, Connie Stevens is Joely's mother. Debbie did leave a son Todd. Her last words to him were, I miss Carrie so much I want to be with her. So sad!!
Yeah I thought the same thing. It makes you wonder if Carrie was her favorite or just a bigger celebrity. That's if all she wrote in Postcards From the Edge is true. Then you wonder if she didn't want to be upstaged. Crazy.

I didn't know she would pass but I wondered if she would. Losing a child is unthinkable at any age but at 84 much more difficult to handle. She was quite a role model when young and such a great entertainer. Her contribution to the world was very positive. Those whose lives she touched were very lucky.
To be honest, there's no coping required. The drugs and lifestyle that Carrie Fisher chose was probably what caused her early demise and her mother likely died of stress caused by the loss of her child. Stuff happens.
