As a parent of a child with severe Autism and other mental issues it is not easy. But I know my son is in God's hands. I prayed and asked God to not take my son from me. I never want to feel the pain of losing a child. I beg God to take me first. Rip Kristoff St John. I'm just in tears for what happened to you and your son. I pray you're both together in peace. 💝😢😘
@SeaMe All of that is in God's hands. I try not to stress over things I have no control over, however whether Autism or anything else I still prefer to depart this life before my son. I rather not feel the pain of losing a child. An Aunt of mine lost four daughters between the ages of 25 and 35 before she herself passed away. I saw her pain. I wouldn't wish it on anyone regardless they go to be with the Lord.
This is so sad. Kristoff I pray you are at peace and reunited with your son again 💔🙏💔💔💔. I have so many memories of watching you on Y&R . You will be truly missed. You seemed to be the epitome of a class act on daytime television
Yet they always do...just like my dad...my dad went in with Covid and had a very long journey back to health...we thought that would maybe take him out...but it wasn’t....his tracheotomy tube came out and was out for 30 mins without anyone checking on him...which caused him to go into cardiac arrest and his brain to swell...my father NEVER regained consciousness.
I work at a psychiatric hospital. When people are a high suicide risk they are put on a 1:1 status. Which means there is one staff member at all times. They are NEVER left alone. Weather they shower, go to the bathroom. Staff is always with them. Also we NEVER use PLASTIC bags on the unit. Just paper bags.
That's good to know. But why couldn't the staff shrink see right through him and know that he needed help so desperately? He obviously had the money/insurance to pay for it and now look what's happened. The doctors are not what they used to be, and that is not just my opinion, it's pretty much everyone's. His life could have been saved if someone would have helped him. It's the same as putting someone who O.D.'d on Heroin into the 72 hour jail time or the 28/30 day Rehab. SERIOUSLY? I KNOW it takes soooo much longer than that....even YEARS! This world is going to hell in a handbasket and doctors are worthless. I have a very good family friend who is a General Surgeon and he agrees 100%. What's the lesson here besides the death of two very loved beautiful people? There isn't one.
@@lizekmerriweather8637 Who cares? Worthless. Just read my comment below and you'll see what I mean. It's nothing against you personally, just my thoughts.
Its heart breaking when I see someone who was in so much pain. He had the money, the connections, everything, yet nobody was able to help this poor man. The pain of losing his son was just too much. My heart goes out to those who loved him and his son.
I grew up watching Kristoff on Television when I was just a Child and he was A Child Actor. And All I Can Say is, To see him come so far in his Career without a Single Scandal and to know he died of A Broken Heart makes this Sad Beyond Measure. RIP Kristoff
I'ma go hug my boys and let them know I'm always there no matter what. I don't care how old they are and how old I get. Prayers to Kristoff St, John and son.
The sad part about this is I totally understand how he felt because I am fighting these nursing homes for the lack of care to our elderly and sick. So many workers don’t care about these people and they should not be working in the healthcare-including mental healthcare field. Not caring~~>Kills!!! RIP Kristoff. Started watching in 1981 with my mama.
Linda I’m so glad you’re fighting for people in nursing homes, I feel the same way as you I worked in one and it’s hard to see people treated like that. God bless u for caring you have a good heart 💫
RIP Kristoff. My heart broke for you when your beloved Julian passed and now it breaks for your family, friends and coworkers as well. A tragic situation all around....😥😥😥😥
Stop Being white for a moment. He missed his son...A man's son means everything to him. When His son died..He died! Everyone's prayers are not warranted. If his family follows God the way they should, they will be more than fine.
So sad to hear this about Kristoff St.John. I grew up watching Y&R. "Neil" is gonna be sadly missed Condolences to his family, friends & his "Y&R" family/friends. RIParadise Kristoff⚘😔🙏
For some reason, this reminds me of the two twin girls who were born dying and were separated and put into two separate incubators at the hospital. They began to loose vitals quicker than when they were together. A nurse then put them into the same incubator and once they felt the touch of the other sibling they both were responding to their medicines and survived. I saw this in Dr. Gregg Braden’s video here on RUclips. Made me think of this because you can’t take a sick person away from their loved ones and into some institution where no one really loves or cares about them. The nurses do a great job but it’s not what the heart of the patient wants! His son should have been home with his dad and family and surrounded by love and have nurses and therapists come to his home to help him sort out his mind. His father should have been there to talk to him everyday about what life is and how to live well and to tell his son how much he loves him and if there was any trama caused by his dad not being there for him when he was growing up because he divorced his mother- he should have told him each day how much he loved him. Maybe take your son on a trip, do things with him everyday. Make up for some time lost. I could imagine that would have helped or even saved his son immensely instead of leaving him at a facility where he was probably miserable and showed him how alone he really was and how easy it was to try suicide even multiple times. The negligence here is astounding. Also, with that being said- I don’t blame the parents, I truly do think they did what they knew to do. May God ease their minds, hearts and souls. Xx
I'm so sorry for your loss. I met you at Sick Kid's Hospital years ago when my sister was there for cancer treatment. We watched Y&R for at least ten years so to meet you was an unforgettable experience and you could not have been nicer. Thank you so much for that.
I agree wholeheartedly ppl shouldn't die in mental hospitals due to a lack of caring unprofessionally for the ones whom are ill that need us. AGAIN .. My deepest & sincere Condolences go out to him kristoff & his family🙏Prayers he will be forever missed 💔💕🙏😟 forever in my heart & loved
Kristoff u are know with your son He just could not live with a broken heart anymore. I know the feeling, l lost my mother and husband with in months apart. Still Grieving not the same person anymore, R.I.P. Kristoff I will miss seeing your face on the young and Restless.
Such incompetency has now taken both their lives...but today we must turn it around...and help to continue Kristoff St. John's and Mia's work to help change conditions at mental hospitals. Kristoff and Julian are now angels in the cause for justice. God bless their eternal spirits.
I'm so glad I ran across this video because I was about to admit my mentally ill son in a long term facility but I'm keeping him at home with me I will continue with his treatments with his therapists after watching this that's horrible as a parent I expect my kids to bury me first not the other way around .
@@raineyj560 So he really didn't have her support bc she was in Russia? I wondered why he was by himself......they only met in Feb 2018, I believe. It seems like Kristoff had a great deal of support from his ex wife, the mother of Julian. This is so tragic. RIP Kristoff.
My Mom aways said it was harder for a parent to bury there children , I remember when I was younger after my uncle passed away my grandma was never the same , Depression is so serious and Afro-American are just starting to open up and share there experience with mental illness because of the stigma attached to it , There are so very many Afro-American suffering today and are self medicating and the symptom are getting worst.
Well said Sir! I hope we can get over the taboo in order to heal ourselves. I personally believe many Black Americans suffer from PTSD. How could you grow up in and live in such high levels of uncertainty, trauma, and loss and not have extreme symptoms. May we longer suffer in silence my Brothas and Sisthas. 🙏🏽
This is soooo very hard to deal with. I have loved this wonderfully talented actor for years as Neil Winters on Y&R and I even remember him on Alex Haley's "Roots". I can only hope that he and his son have reunited by the hands of God and that there is final peace for both father and son holding one another and never letting go of the other. Kristoff, please do not forget those of us (fans) who will forever and always remember you in our own special way. Also, please give my love to Mrs. "C" . I know you 2 will have so many memories of your days on the Y&R set to laugh about. RIP, my sweet Prince of daytime television.
Along with everyone else, I'd like to share my deepest condolences to the loved ones of Kristoff St. John, his son and son's mother. It's hard to see him in so much pain. I feel so bad for all of them and for this very sad outcome. May they rest in peace.
I am heart broken!💔 I grew up watching Y & R, because of Neil Winters, his Character on the show. He and Drucilla was our black LOVE STORY!! Kristoff, you are with your Angel now, Jullian. Rest in Paradise Father and Son.🙏
I believe he died of a Broken Heart. This man was hurting so much, for the death of his son. This is a parent's worst nightmare, is to bury their child. Continued Prayers Kristoff's Family and Friends. My Lord... This is still unreal.
This is why I speak all my feelings and never hold nothing in. Idgaf what a person says about me. Im going to speak my mind and i'm not shutting up for nobody unless God who gave me this mouth shuts it..I will speak all my feelings. Dont tell me to shut up either. Cause i'm not. Peerrriiiiooooott
Death is a hard pill to swallow I can relate I was traumatized for many years over my Mother's untimely passing over 10 years ago and I just had to turn to God for help but it doesn't turn out that way for everyone may he and his sons souls be at peace 🙏
I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your son and I hope that you succeed in getting Justice for Julian. I have some idea what you're going through and it's difficult to hear that there are some facilities that don't have the proper consideration for the patient when they know the person is crying out for HELP. Anita's opinion
I tried to watch this beautiful video. Then I tried watching without Bette accompanying the video. I can't do it. It just hurts too much. I miss this man so much. Our world misses Kristoff. R.I.P. ❤
This was just too much for him to handle. RIP Kristoff St. John...
RIP KRISTOFF WE LL MISS U NEIL !
My eyes are tearing up!🥺 RIP #KristoffStJohn
And the reason " this was too much for him to handle " was the result of gross human error.
Rest in peace father and son.
💚💚
That poor man never recovered from losing a child.R.I.P Kristoff St John.You will be sadly missed.
And forever loved

U never recover.

God bless his soul/spirit!!! He was just in too much pain.
Just Love I think not only was he heartbroken 😞 but he had an overwhelming amount of guilt, I hope that they are reunited and happy now❣️

Yes! He was very classy..I always admired him.
So sad! He died of a broken heart!
Yes he did
Absolutely..... heartbreaking. My prayers for them all.
That is very true.
