On Friday, singer Keyshia Cole got personal with her fans when she shared a recent encounter with her mom, Frankie Lons. 

“Guess what you guys?,” she started her Twitter conversation. “I told my mother the other day I was afraid to lose her because she keeps going back to the streets. You kno what she said? In return?” Then tweeting, “She said. ‘YOU’LL be aight'”

Lons, who we were first introduced to us when Cole visited her in prison on her reality show, Keyshia Cole: The Way It Is, has battled a drug addiction over the years. 

In a series of tweets, Cole continued to share her sadness and frustration with her mom, and her belief that her mom “feels no pain.”

Thanks. It really did break my heart to hear her say that. I couldn't imagine leaving my child before. Thinking. "He'll be aight" 🤧 https://t.co/GeZbJDKAik

And I was crying when I said it. I get to think she feels no pain. https://t.co/PGePQOVu20

Can't imagine a mother sayin that to her child. Idk. Maybe I fully don't understand her addiction. That shit hurt tho. https://t.co/AR1zwLJ3ft

Maybe she doesn't kno what she means to me. But that's weird when u think about it. She's the best thing that ever happened to me https://t.co/XNHU5SFMoW

Cole, who’s a mother to her seven-year-old son Daniel, also explained how she didn’t understand how a mother could say that to her child and how her mother is “the best thing that ever happened” to her.

We are praying for Lons and Cole, and hope that Lons remains safe.
