“It’s probably more in reference to him losing his memory right now.”
“Lawson commented on a post about this, and said he hasn’t passed yet. This song is just honoring him.”
“He has dementia. Grandpa Bill as they knew him passed awhile ago. I know that’s hard for those who haven’t dealt with dementia to understand but that person is no longer there and won’t come back. You grieve them before they actually die. I think it’s probably just that.”
“He looks just like the two youngest at that age. That family has some strong genes.”
Bringing Up Bates: Mama Jane Is Also Going Through A Health Crisis
Aside from Papa Bill, Mama Jane is currently recovering from a cancer scare. Kelly Jo Bates previously asked for prayers as Mama Jane undergoes weeks of radiation treatment. According to the Bringing Up Bates star, her mother-in-law has been a warrior, but she gets weak whenever she undergoes the treatment. She added, “We are always so grateful for the outpouring of love & prayers that y’all give when they have needs. So thanks in advance for lifting her up! She’s very precious to all of us! 💗” Members of the Bates family have also been back and forth to South Carolina to watch over Mama Jane and Papa Bill.
