A mom is making desperate attempts to reconcile with her son. She is dying of breast cancer. A dramatic situation. This woman happens to be Eminem’s mom.
In a recent article from The Mirror, she claims:
I am dying of cancer but my son Eminem won’t pay to save me
Debbie loses weight every day. She faces banktrupcy over the medical fees for her cancer treatment. Moreover, she is heartbroken because her son Marshall remains angry with her.
Is Marshall a monster for leaving his mom alone in such dramatic situation? Certainly not.
Marshall is an abused child who is still hurt by what his mom did to him when he was a kid. Of course, he has exorcised most of the demons from his past in songs like Cleaning Out My Closet, but deep inside he must still feel wounded. Many kids wouldn’t have overcome such circumstances. Luckily, Marshall did.
Some of his detractors often argue that Debbie is treated badly by her son Marshall because he’s a blatent mysogynist- which is untrue.
Debbie always wants to appear a a perfect mom in front of the media. Each time I have seen her on TV, her language clearly showed how much she wanted to prove which kind of good and overprotective mom she was towards her first son. The trouble is, many facts dement her statements as well as many people such as Kim and her former husbands and boyfriends witness the contrary.
So many people who used to live with Debbie or who knew her personally can testify how sick her behavior was. Also, which mom would dare suing her own son for a total amount of 12 million dollars and then claim she never intented to sue him, that it was Kim’s fault?
I never intended to sue my son. The lawsuit was my attempt to hold on to my home. I’d given Marshall my trailer to rent when I moved back to Missouri. But Kim fell behind with the payments. I figured I had to sell it to pay the debt, but she wouldn’t let me. She threatened me with a lawyer, so I consulted one myself. Then the whole thing just escalated. The first thing I knew, I swear, was when Marshall rang me and said, ‘Mom, why are you suing me for $10 million?’ I nearly fell over. It was ludicrous. Then word got out and the world saw me as an evil bitch from hell. What mother sues her own son? I was cursed in public, spat at in shopping malls.
Debbie always expected Marshall to apologize. Did I understand well? Yes, Debbie wants Marshall to apologize. For abusing him? For denouncing true facts about Debbie in his lyrics?
Maybe this is precisely where the problem lies: Debbie doesn’t want to admit her fault which is exactly what hurts Marshall so much and maybe the main reason why he doesn’t manage to forgive her:
See what hurts me the most is you won’t admit you was wrong… (Eminem, Cleaning Out My Closet)
Many Eminem fans may think that Eminem doesn’t talk to his mom any more, but it is untrue. No matter how bad their relationship may be, they are both still in touch.
Debbie feels the urge to reconcile with Marshall, she is very conscious that her life may end soon. Despite all that happened between mom and son, Marshall needs to realize the emergency of the situation: his mom may die soon and it is always horrible to cope with the death of relatives without any sign of forgiveness. But Debbie, just one question: Why don’t you admit you were wrong with your son?
If you were honest enough to admit your mistakes, you’d recover the son you pretend to love so much.
Just listen to all of you, the majority of you are ignorant and it shows in the grammar, profanity, tone and spelling of your writings. So what if she was a terrible person, he should be the bigger person and put it behind him in light of the situation. I’m not condoning what she did, said or even the way she acts. In all honesty she should apologize but at this point she’s dying and she should at least have the opportunity to reconcile even if a sorry never comes. Enough of all the racist remarks! All of you idiots out there spreading hate and hard feelings are no better the the idiots that can’t spell or write, a rapist, drug dealer or a thug or the street. The rest of you need to get an education, spell check and a likely a job and stop whining about things that don’t matter and try worrying about your own lives.
Patrick, how are yuu gonna sit herre n tale us ta stop whining? Nigga, yuu whining about us whining. Come on dawg, das pitiful. I thank yuu tha one dat needz ta worry about yur own life instead of gettin on blogs and criticizin otha people for dere spellin and junk. Oh and for ya infomation my vocab is great, I jus choose naght ta use it on here bcuz I don’t hav too. It’s naght like it’s a fuckin exam, so let people do dey thang n stop worryin about tha spellin.
Even though I don’t agre wit ya on all of dat, I do agree witcha on tha racism. It’s killin our country, but errybuddy do hav a freedom of speech so I’m not gonna tale dem ta stop tha racist commentz. Dey jus need ta thank about wut dey type, b4 dey type it.
Dear Patrick, fuck you.
By the way, you spelled “the” twice in your atempt to bitch at people about thier bad grammar. Why don’t you fucking use a spell check before you bitch at others for not using one. Fucking hypocrite. There, was my grammar good enough for your oh-so perfect standards?
Oh sorry Glavin, i forgot to comment on ur blog i so busy telling Patrick to STFU. lol. I agree with a lot of your views and i think you’re right. A lot of people are very one sided. either all his mom or all him. thier both wrong and right in thier own ways, and em has everyright to never speak to her again. But, i do have some sympothy for his mom considering she dying and her son wont speak to her or pay for her treatment, but then, thinking back to what she did to him as a kid, its like wait… Em is still really hurt and if she really wanted to reconsile so bad, she should admit shes wrong, like you said. Thsnks for telling you whole story :]
well, thanks mamba.(:
some of the things people say just amuse me. i just think that when someone comes on here and calls everyone else idiots, and judges them so harshly and wrongfully without even knowing who they are, and then just says the stupidest stuff… well…i think that shows true idiocy. you guys shouldn’t even let it offend you. people who treat you like that don’t matter. so just move on and don’t even worry about it–you’re already better than them anyway.(:
BRIT! I LOVE how you word everything. You are classy.
PATRICK!! FUCK OFF!!! WITH ”UR” BULLSHYT! dumn ass prick licker!! wtf you stupid ass asshole are you Fucken Websters dictionary??? I dont fucken think so! people dont need to be so precise.. go suck your own dick bastard! hahahah lmfao..

patrick you are as bad as the rest of them you cant tell people what to do, say, or live they speak how they want to and whatever the fuck you do aint gonna change that muthafucka so get back on your knees and suck like the bitch you are
Why is all of this going on? The blog is about Eminem ans his mothers problems, not rascism or spelling! If you don’t really have anything to say about that, why don’t you write your own blogs and then you can say what you want!
All of you have valid points, but it’s not meant for this page!
Gavin, I like the way you think, brilliant writing! There’s 2 people in the relationship, not just Eminem, she also needs to do something about fixing her past mistakes!
Uummm….fuck you who posted ” Eminem is a whiny little bitch” your obviously here whining about what that patrick guy said! I’d like to see your ass go through what Eminem did and become one of the greatest entertainers ever! Bitch, you probably work at Mcdonalds.
PS: You couldn’t bust your own cock in half no matter how thin it is!
Hey Guys This Blog is About Eminem, If You don’t like him then please, for everyones sake, don’t look his name up on google! I think eminem has a right to be resentful toward his mother don’t you! I mean that poor man has been through so much and random bloggers blog about how he is “whiney” and such. Its unfair to him, lets not criticizes until we’ve been in his place with his feelings and see how we deal with it. We would all crumble, luckily marshall didn’t and we have his jams to bob our heads to. He is really an unbelievable rapper and not only that but one of the strongest people i have seen in a while. It takes strength to be Marshall Mathers and live with the fact that he s a white rapper everyone! its not important what race he is, you cant see his skin color through your speakers now can you?! If Marshall M. Happens to stumble upon this, i want to say that i respect you with all of my being, keep writing music for me to blast through my computer, ill be the first to race to the store and buy your album.
Yo, Patrick FUCK YOU!
Eminem doesnt have to be the fucking bigger person! His fuckin mom should just fucking apologize if she wants to keep on living! If she can’t even apologize for her own goddamn life, then i dont really think Marshal should help her…its not that hard just to say shes fucking sorry…god dammit Patrick go fuck yourself!
haha you know, why are you defending her? she treated him poor….i’ve had a mother no were near as bad as her, but after even remotely hearing what she did to him, its like from the author of a child called it, he should not even bother with her if he doesn’t want to. while it may not be the right thing, people need to understand that they messed up, and if it takes her dying for her to get that, well then she should. just saying, its not right for him to have to save her, if she never did anything for him. why is she special? what about the others in the world who havn’t done anything? they’re dying from various health problems, if shady doesn’t want to help her, he doesn’t have to, are any of you sending out millions for charity? i didn’t think so. he has a right to do as he pleases. its not his fault he made a lot of money, why should he have to give up what he made just because she was a drug addict and couldn’t get her life straightened out?
I still don’t know half of what his mom did to him, but i don’t believe it was as bad as he said it was in his songs. In the rap world, you don’t get famous and sell records by being a good person. I believe than Marshall is a good person, but he probably writes a lot of stuff just to sell records. I’m not saying his mother was great, because she must’ve been really bad for him t write stuff like that. But i don’t fully believe it was as bad as he said it was. All I’m trying to say is, he needs to talk to his mom, they both need to clear the air, and she needs to admit she was wrong.
I agree with lepricon. A lot of times when you hear about him, nobody mentions all the good he’s done. All you hear is negativity
Erm.. y u all up here dissing eminem if you dont listern to the lyrics inhis songs his mother hurt him! then sed it was his fault now thts not mother love is ermm NO… i love eminem he is a lyric genius and if ur nit hes real fans then get gone! ahbyebye
omg eminem fan your so right i love you!!!! also mama whats your face why so you have to be so stero typical black person???? you make the rest of us look bad damn bitch fuck off patrick go ahead hate whatever your choice bitch!!!
Hey connor wallace! :) <3
Ok so Partick, you’re telling us that even if YOU were abused as a child and YOU were affected by Munchausen Syndrome, you would forgive your Mom even though she refuses to admit that what she did was messed up? Please, cut the crap and stop pretending that you’re better than the people here because I can see through your “I’m soooo clever” bullshit. I strongly believe that you have the intelligence of a trogolodyte because your reasoning makes no sense to me or ANYONE posting on this site.
“The rest of you need to get an education, spell check and a likely a job and stop whining about things that don’t matter and try worrying about your own lives.”
Clearly you need to stop worrying about other’s educations because your English isn’t that great either. Erm, WE should stop whining and worry about our own lives? You’re such a hypocrite! That is EXACTLY what you’re doing! Maybe you should walk 1000 miles in his shoes, then come back and tell us that you’d forgive your Mom if she did that to you. Just go do some research on what went down with Eminem and his Mom, then come back and apologize.
I suggest you remove all your comments on here before more people read them and laugh at you. Your unintelligence is not needed here.
Patrick your a Proper dickhead you are who are you 2 judge on grammar? well i agree with part of galvin’s views after all abuse in marshalls life i understand if it is hard for him to forgive his mother, but that btich needs to admit she is bloddy wrong and maybe marshall will talk to her for once
