The fact that the legendary Robin Williams died ten years ago is astounding. The late actor was a titan of the film business, a hilarious actor with almost no competition, whose death left a lasting impact on society. His death was undoubtedly the result of unfortunate circumstances, and his legacy continues to be profound.
That people are still talking about his life and legacy and that many of them conjecture about what may have occurred if his fortune and destiny had turned out differently should not come as a surprise.
The last words William ever said to him were relayed by Billy Connolly, a comedian and close friend of the actor, over ten years after the untimely death of the Good Will Hunting star. and they’re exactly as heartwarming as you might anticipate… It’s true that humor and Robin Williams go hand in hand.
Throughout his colorful career, Williams became one of the funniest men to have ever graced our screens. Ten years after his death, people are still laughing at the comedy he created, which combines gut-busting hilarity with strange, wonderful, flawed, and fabulous characters.
However, tragedy also plagued Williams’ life in this instance, to the extent that the actor believed life was not worth living at all. On August 11, 2014, Williams, 63, was found dead at home; it appeared that he had committed suicide.
Williams had issues like alcoholism despite enjoying great success in his acting career. In 2014, Williams spent three weeks at the Hazelden facility in Minnesota in an effort to deepen his commitment to recovery.
According to reports, the Jumanji actor battled alcoholism and cocaine abuse in the early 1980s until giving up when his pal John Belushi passed away from an overdose in 1982. Following his passing in 2014, the late Hollywood icon’s representative stated that he had been “battling severe depression.” His wife Susan Schneider subsequently revealed further information on his demise, including the fact that he had only been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease a few months before he passed away.
Williams had Lewy body dementia (LBD), which resulted in significant alterations to his personality, mobility, temperament, memory, reasoning, sleep patterns, and mood, according to the results of an autopsy.
Needless to say, Williams’ passing had a terrible effect on a lot of people, including his closest friends and family.
One figure who definitely belonged in the first category was Sir Billy Connolly, who has been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. When asked what he would have done differently if he had known Williams intended to commit suicide, the comedian and actor said, “You have to give a guy the position that he’s wise enough to make up his own mind.” Connolly stated, “I don’t think so,” in response to the topic of whether or not he would have tried to save his own life.
The 81-year-old Connolly also revealed that he and Williams had talked on the phone a lot about their experiences with Parkinson’s disease and would often express how much they loved and cared for each other. When Connolly appeared on the BBC program In My Own Words, he discussed his relationship with Williams.
The week before Williams passed suddenly, he said, the actor had called to ask him to dinner. “I love you,” he remarked to me over dinner when he called and said, “Let’s have dinner.” Connolly thought back to their last dinner together. I conveyed my appreciation. He said, “Do you believe me?” “Obviously, I do,” I remarked. “You have my undying love,” he declared. That was great, in my opinion.
My initial thought was, “How strange, how strange for him to say that, it’s not like him normally.” Connolly said, “He died during the weekend. I hope you find peace, Robin Williams.
Dad Takes Extreme Action: Shaves Daughter’s Head After Bullying a Cancer-Stricken Classmate!
No matter how much we want to think our kids are perfect, the truth is that none of them are.
I’m not saying most parents aren’t doing a good job—most are—but childhood is a time for learning, and all kids will make mistakes they might regret later.
What’s most important is not just what happens, but how the child learns from those mistakes and grows from them.
It’s precisely for this reason that we introduce the concept of punishment early: a kid does something wrong and they’re forced to suffer the consequences of said act. It’s teaches them a simple lesson and, hopefully*, they don’t do that same thing again.
Of course, punishments can vary in degrees, ranging from a metaphorical slap on the wrist to methods that the offending child won’t likely forget.
In any case, one dad’s choice for his daughter certainly sits in the latter of those two categories. She was caught making fun of another student at school who had lost all of her hair to chemotherapy. When her dad found out, it’s safe to say he wasn’t impressed.
He decided to take steps to ensure she never did it again. He shaved her head bald, so that she’d know what it felt like to be in her victim’s shoes.
Needless to say, his method of rebuke has drawn plenty of criticism online, but he isn’t phased by any of it. On the contrary, he told CafeMom that he thinks it was a perfectly acceptable reaction.
He also told CafeMom that his daughter is dating the other girl’s ex-boyfriend, which contributed to the drama that played out.
“They were having an argument in class about stupid teenage gossip regarding my daughter’s boyfriend. At some point the other girl mentioned how my daughter’s boyfriend was just using her for sex (this was actually a big shock to me as I had no idea she was sexually active) and called my daughter a slut.
