My dears, I encourage you to watch Shelby's Diabetic Attack in a Hair Salon, HERE: th-cam.com/video/M6PJ7uuCUj8/w-d-xo.html
I have and my child at about 21 was diagnosed with type 1. I’ve seen this..
My child is a body builder and therefore in tune to body. It’s a nightmare, plus gluten free….
❤
I think that even though that was kind of a sad scene, it was also kind of funny in a way. It really showed you how rebellious and strong-willed the character of Shelby was. This was a great movie and will always be a classic.
The saddest part of this scene is Sheblys real mom was there and the nurse that turned off life support in the movie was the nurse who turned off the life support in real life.
Her mom said she wanted to watch the whole scene as they filmed it because “I need to see her (Julia) get up and walk away.”
Just so heartbreaking.
Wait this is based on a true story??
@@LynnTanner-ls9kxyes, the screenwriter Robert Harling wrote the play after his sister Susan, a type 1 diabetic, died at 33 in 1985 shortly after giving birth to her son and subsequently getting a kidney transplant, which failed. The story is based on the last years of her life. He wrote it because he wanted his nephew to know who his mother was and how much she sacrificed to have him.
@@shannmaddox1836 Thank you for this information,I admire he wrote this film so his nephew knew how much she sacrificed and loved him.Thank you again!
@@shannmaddox1836 wasn't there a scene similar to this in *Billion Dollar Baby?*
@@shannmaddox1836I didn't know that. Thank you for sharing that.
Sally played this role flawlessly.
Yes, she did everything
Just that walk entering the hospital was so, powerful. She is such a gifted actress.
She sure did amazing actress ❤
She is one of my favorite actors!!!!
Yes she did ,had me 😢😢😢
As many times as I've seen this movie, this scene STILL makes me break down. That poor baby was trying to show his dad that his mom was not ok.
EVERYONE deserved an award for this scene.
Sally is one of a kind. She played the role of a grieving mother like no other. I lost count of how many times I watched this movie.
When life support is turned off, they ask you to leave the room because there will be involuntary movements of the hands & legs & sounds' you as family think your loved one is alive. How do I know? I had the gut-wrenching part of my husband's life support being turned off. He had a massive stroke in his sleep & I woke up to find him ' he was on life support for 7 hours ' and they informed me he was brain-dead!! He was 29yrs old . It will be 5yrs on October 2024 . I still haven't moved on .
It’s ALWAYS up to the family. My mom personally turned my grandma’s machines off after the nurse removed her breathing tube, and there was 17 of us crammed into that hospital room. They definitely warn you about the movements and sounds of the death rattling, but they should never ask the family to leave the room. They should only tell you your options. I sadly have a great deal of experience with hospice and I’ve never witnessed anyone be asked to leave the room. So if they said that to you, I’m so sorry. Unless of course you wouldn’t have wanted to witness anything anyway. (I realize I don’t know if you live in the US though, so if you don’t, laws may be different)…
I’m sorry for your loss. 🤍
So sorry
I'm so sorry for your loss❤️
God bless you darling for your loss, and may your husband rest in peace.
I had to watch my only brother be removed from life support in October two years ago. He'd had surgery to get a portion of his foot removed due to diabetes. On the day he was to be released they put one of the plastic protectors over his foot and sat him in the shower. The nurse left the room to answer her cell phone. We don't know how long she was gone, but when she came back she found he'd fallen over and busted his head open. They revived him once for a few minutes, but he went back into full cardiac arrest. He never woke up again. We had just lost our mother to a stroke that June, and our dad 3 years prior to mesothelioma. He was exposed to asbestos while in the Navy. There's just us two girls left now. Life turns on a dime folks. Love each other. Be there for your family because you NEVER know when the Lord will call them home.
So sorry for your many losses. May God bring you strength and healing 🙏🏽♥️
@@kayleemetzger1697 thank you ma'am.
Sorry for your loss. Lifting prayers and condolences 🙏 for you. 😢💔
@@tj921able thank you ma'am.
So, so sorry for you ❤
The saddest sound in the world is the silence when a heart monitor stops beeping. 😞
Are we not going to talk about how it was painful for Jackson as well? His hesitation when signing the form to take Shelby off life support is what hits me.
Yeah it must have been hard in real life I heard that the husband was going to remarry right after the death of Susan and raise the child to call his new wife Mommy and her brother did this to stop his nephew from forgetting his mother and to stop his sister from being erased from her child's memory he wanted the boy to know how much she loved him and what she did and sacrificed to give him life I prefer the movie husband I mean I understand people grieve different but erasing your child's memory of his mother is sick and evil
@@aprilgosa5779 I am sorry but as a Type I diabetic I have to say this. Like Shelby I too was told not to have children from the time I was 15; however, I was coerced into at least "trying" to have a baby. IF he had truly loved her he would have never agreed to a baby. He would have never endangered her life like that.
@@jacquiethebibliophilI don’t think he knew how dangerous it was because Shelby always downplayed how serious her diabetes was.
@@karyndewit193yes. I don’t know why people want to reflexively blame the husband. Shelby was strong-willed and this was HER doing - she was determined.
What makes it powerful is the lack of music
Sally's meltdown at the funeral would have to be the most memorable scene in any movie for me. Unbelievable.
Hearing Jack Jr. crying just breaks my heart because he's too young to know what his mother risked to give him life. But somehow he knew to point to where she had fallen down.
He was only wanting the sucker. They used a sucker and took it away to make him cry. That's why he's reaching for her pocket. He's pointing to his real mom that took the sucker
@@marikiemarie7622 You must be fun at parties.
@saynotohookups this isn't the best timing to use that worn out line. Lol the comment is ridiculous. "Somehow he knew to reach out to point." The child knew his sucker was being taken. Lol
@@marikiemarie7622 they're obviously talking about the movie for fuck's sake
@saynotohookups, Do try not to feed the troll trash.
I remember when my sister died…Sally nailed the grieving mother like no other. 😢
She was there when her baby came into this world, and she was there when she departed it. Heartbreaking in every way. Hearing her heartbeat so delicately and then flatlining forever.
I was thinking the same thing 😔
That doesn't happen in real life. There's never a flatline sound. That's Hollywood
@@estherlane7498 since I have to clarify, I was talking about the part “she was there when her baby came into the world and was there when she departed.”
@@sweetkentuckymama7710 since you don't have to clarify. Dont. ...
I'm fully aware of what you meant FFS. Since I'll have to clarify I will
I'm talking about movies showing flatlines and heartbeat sounds for dramatic effect. Get over yourself
@@estherlane7498 well then don’t comment on my post to someone else. I could say the same for you,“Get over yourself.”
How Sally didn't win an Oscar for this role is beyond me
Wasn’t even nominated, probably due to category confusion
The Academy Awards are an absolute joke.
I agree with you 💯 👍.
When Austin Butler never won for his role as Elvis, I told myself i would never watch the Academy Awards EVER again!!🤮
Steel Magnolias is worth more than a ridiculous Oscar!!😆
The world knows this..
The movie was an abomination, that's why.
@@user-nn4ei3iu3s says who you?
Sally won God’s heart, and we all know so. Such a beautiful soul😇🙏🏻😇
I love how only the Mamma is strong enough and loving enough too see her baby through to the end ❤
@michelleviolette574 That's not really fair to her father and her younger brothers they loved Shelby even big tough men have their breaking points I can't blame Drum for not being able to stomach watching them turn the machines off on his baby girl he probably thought to himself I am her father I was supposed to take care of her and this time he couldn't chase the monsters away
We have come so far in treating juvenile diabetes- for all our complaints about the failings of medical science, think of all the young folks that today can live full and long lives because of that progress. So many, for so long, never had a chance. Shelby was a difficult character, but wanted to live her life to the max and did. Was she selfish, headstrong, etc? Maybe- but she was like a bright comet in the night sky. And she mattered. And her dreams mattered. Great movie!❤
How was she selfish wanting to have her baby is not selfish being headstrong is a good quality in a person she wanted what a lot of little girls want a family of her own
People still sadly die sometimes from this disease even with the new treatments we have this movie drove it home just serious Diabetes is and can be I as a kid used to think oh you just take shots and you are ok and you can't eat certain things but now I know as an adult its not that simple this movie was so heartbreaking
I don’t know if I’m correct or not, but I think the nurses and doctors that were there in the scene were the actual doctors and nurses for the real Shelby.
You are correct
This has always been my favorite movie since a kid and I'm just now learning today it's based on a true story 😢
Sweet little boy knew mommy was in trouble because he kept pointing out the window
Sally Field. Hell of an actress!
Especially when she played May Parker
She had a sweet ass in smokey and the bandit!!!
I had a stroke at 26. I had to drag myself to get help and thats hard to do when your arms and legs arent working right. Seeing her next to the phone on the ground brought back alot of bad memories
I cant watch this movie during these parts. I ugly cry all the time.. Julia and Sally played their roles soooo AMAZING.
I remember when I first saw this film. Everyone in the cinema was crying at this point.
I can t hear that poor baby screaming. It hurts so much😢
Should've heard his mudda when I was pollinating her flower!!!
Shut up. Open your ears and you will
This movie and Beaches with Barbara Hershey and Bette Midler will have me in a crying lump every single time I watch them.
I remember I cried so much during this movie. One of the best that Julia Roberts has made.
Breaks my heart every time. This is based on a real life story, the screenwriter is actually Shelby’s brother and the nurse who turned off her life support machine in real life is the one who did it in the film!!! Every single one of the cast members needs several awards and extreme recognition & respect! One of my all time, heartbreaking stories
the real woman is named Susan
The brother makes a cameo in the film as the minister who married Shelby and Jackson
Sally Field is beyond amazing. Everything she touches is GOLD....❤❤❤❤
Thank you, Sally, for your brilliant acting and growing up with you in the "Flying Nun" and "Smokey and the Bandit"
Much love to you from Australia 🇦🇺 ❤️ 💙 ♥️
I have chills like when that movie come out i remember being the baby age and my mother laying on the floor no one to help me i cried and cried till daddy came home i know the feeling
This scene hits different after uve experienced a love one gettin off life support. I lost my abuela 4 yrs ago frm covid, & my mother-in-law last yr frm a stroke. Both that culd hv been prevented 😔. Life is to short and precious, tell those u love that u love them. 💞 I miss u wetha & maria 😇🪽
Same for me too. Lost my mama to COVID. Went very much like this. It's hard as hell to watch but it helps to know it's a somewhat universal experience for those who have been there.
@@ladvita32 my condolences to u & ur family.
@@dominiquealisemerlano2590 Thank you. You too ❤️
Me too list my best friend and sis in law in October and was standing there at the bed while everything was removed from her
It really does, I couldn't even be in the room when my mom was taken off life support in 2017.
I was Truvy in community theater in my 20s, little did I know I would be living this scene with my own daughter in my 40s.
I’m so sorry.
Oh no, I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry
The father was in just as much pain. I feel like he was disregarded.
I think because the movie was actually about the mother and her relationship with her daughter.
He looks just destroyed . He didn’t have to say much but his face says it all
@@danielleelizaharpz Of course he is destroyed Daddy's are there to protect their little girls and this time he couldn't chase the monster away from his little girl
I don't think he was intentionally overlooked there were other scenes of the movie where they showed that he was very close to his little girl and how close she was to her brothers but the movie did kinda focus on the mother -daughter dynamics and that relationship the conflicts between Shelby and M'Lynn and then the unconditional love that both had for each other Shelby was the heart of that movie her relationship with her daddy was different she had Daddy wrapped her little finger like most girls do and she butted heads with her mother like mothers and daughters do but the love was there
The part that actually is so raw and real is how after the machines are turned off and M'Lynn leaves the hospital to pick up the baby from Jackson's aunt I think that is when it hits or atleast it did me it hit me in that moment as she was driving to get the baby that empty feeling that Shelby would never physically be beside her in the car again that she would never look over and see her daughter again or never be able to talk to her or bicker with her over silly mother daughter things the realization that Shelby was gone that was so sad it takes my breath away when I watch it she is driving back from the hospital her daughter has just been declared officially deceased and she takes that lonely car ride to get her grandbaby and when she goes home Shelby won't be there ever again even the music portrays the empy feeling that the mother character must be feeling at that moment and the graveside scene is just the best performance I think I have seen its so raw and real its almost scary to watch when she gets angry because you can feel it she had held it together as long as she could and she couldn't do it anymore and it just exploded out of her but her girls were there for her
Dylan McDermott and Sally Field's acting in this scene is so beautiful. When Jackson (Dermott) hesitates to sign the form to take her off life support.
I don’t care how old your child is, for a mother, there’s no grieving or heart ache like losing a child.
This is devastating. Hearing that little boy crying breaks my heart
I remember mom had this on when I was still at that point in life when I didn’t really understand death. I thought “Young people don’t die. Not like that. That’s not how it works.”
Omg same,I was a kid and couldn't understand how she died because she wasn't old.
@@LynnTanner-ls9kx yeah, she wasn’t old, wasn’t in an accident or hurt. So confusing as a 6 year old
@@number1fool My granddaughter is going through this,not really understanding it and reading your comment and remembering how I also thought of death at that age will help me tell her better.Its crazy how innocent we were then..
I watched this in the theater and cried. Rewatching this made me cry. Such a lovely and powerful movie.
This movie is a lot easier to watch until you have your own Steel Magnolias experience 😣
I worked in an Endo office, the doctor would urge diabetic patients to watch this movie
@@shannondelp9898 Why?
@@raea3588 to help them understand how serious diabetes can be
@@raea3588probably because it is based off the real life story of Robert Harling's sister Susan who died from diabetes related complications due to a failed kidney transplant.
@@raea3588since Shelby was a juvenile diabetic/type a
EVERYTHING is at risk...and in the real story, Shelby didn't survive childbirth.
There are many more factors involved...the risks are extremely high.
Having someone on life support declared brain dead is the most heartwrenching thing in the world. I can only imagine the agony. It feels like your heart is being ripped out via your kidneys. It must be horrendous. Anyone who's gone through this with a loved one, no words could comfort you ❤❤❤
Happened to me five years ago with Mum.
THANK YOU IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS SCENE
Sally is superb.
My 25 year old sister died the same way in 2020. People don’t realise how dangerous diabetes is. This film hits so different now.
Seeing this really had me on the verge of tears...when I was 15, my paternal grandmother suffered a heart attack brought on by her Type 1 diabetes, and they attempted to do a bypass, which they couldn't do very much to help. The worst part is that me and my family had to go down to see her in the hospital in Missouri (as my father was born and raised there), and she was in the ICU, which didn't help matters. The sights and sounds were disturbing to me, and I was hoping for her to pull through - she didn't. My poor grandmother was only 63 when she died. As of this comment, my maternal grandmother is the only grandparent I have left on this planet after my maternal grandfather's life was claimed in the tornado that tore through parts of Western Kentucky.
No offense, but only 63? Living to 63 is a blessing. My dad died at 47 of cancer and I’m in the process of being screened as well and it’s not looking good....I’m 41. One of my friends died at 35 in a car accident with her 14 year old daughter. Her other 3 kids were in the car but survived and are now being raised by their dad. 63 would be a joyous age to live to. In my opinion.
@@aileenmccarthy8660 Prayers to you, my friend. I'm 38 years old, but I turn 39 in July. Months after my grandmother's death, I had returned home from school, and my mother told me she needed to talk with me on a serious note. When she said, "Dad's in the hospital", I became alarmed, and it turns out my father got pneumonia while he was working at his job over in Chicago. He was 41 years at the time he got it, but it was a good thing my mom told him through a phone call to check himself into the hospital for his affliction. He survived the ordeal. There's a lot of other things that my father has survived which I will not disclose - I do know in 2019, he had to get his gall bladder taken out. My father's now 64 years old.
This was amazing movie all the actors were amazing too
I really love the scene after this where Sally Field leaves to get go get Jack Jr. She just needs to go get her grandson and be with him now.
julia roberts plays this role brilliantly
IKR, especially since she wound up getting a part in *Pretty Woman,* which my mother lined up to audition for
I was on my early term when I saw this movie and couldn't say a word in this scene. I had a knot on my throat and bursted into a waterfall of tears.....
I know an extra minute or 2 wouldn't have made a difference, but the fact that the kid kept pointing at her and the dad didn’t pay attention is extremely annoying, especially because the kid was freaking out more & more because of it.
To me too!
My first grandson xzavier was a still born he would have been 20 and when we took my daughter to her house to get a outfit for the funeral she looked at me and said mom I'm supposed to be picking a outfit to bring him home in not picking out a outfit to bury him in I lost it
I love the title. Magnolias are such a beautiful flower, they represent perfectly the beauty of motherhood and selfless love, and of course steel being strong and unbendable, well, I don't need to explain the symbolism! Even though Shelby succumbed to her illness, her love did not. And her mother's love did not.
This whole scene is truly a sword through the heart for me, extremely sad
I cried so many times watching this movie.
The unimaginable pain of losing your kid! 😢
One of the best movies ever!!!!!!
I have type 2 diabetes. But, nothing this bad. So incredibly sad😢😢. For her whole family. Especially that sweet baby
She has type 1 not 2
You can die from both and there is more than two types of diabetes. @@oceay11
Type 2 😂😅
Back then Diabetes was really scary, and it can be even still. Thankfully, there are better treatments and better education. Type 1 Diabetes is still pretty complicated, but the prognosis for a Longer Healthier Life is more realistic. The rise in Type 2 Diabetes is epidemic due to the poisoning of food and limited access to healthier options. Type 2 Diabetes is more manageable, but it is still a very serious condition. Most of Americans are Pre-Diabetic, that isn't a coincidence. Having Diabetes in the 80s was rare, having it now is almost expected. All you can to is continue to take care of yourself and to stay educated as best you can. Many diseases can be reversed or forced into remission. It's tough work and you have to be kind to yourself. Take care.
@@dr.100purrscent5 There are more the two types of diabetes and 100 ways you can get tyoe 2 through no fault of your own.
A movie that can still make you cry regardless the edit and time... 🌿🌹🌿
Sally was amazing and the rest of the cast did a amazing job
I had to sign the DNR papers on my son back in March. He fought brain cancer for 3 years before it became too much. There is no pain like the one when you hear your childs past breath.
Sally was so good in this movie, this is one of the best movies ever
Shelby: Hold On!
I wanted her to wake up and say wait a minute so bad but it never happened
This has to be one of the saddest scenes in a movie😢💔
I cannot believe this happened to Julia Roberts
@@robtru84 you're telling me, this part could've went to my mother if she didn't miss her interview
This scene always make me tear up every time
Love this movie, one of Julia Roberts' best. Remember seeing this in bk in 89 and crying in the cinema
I love this movie I can watch it over and over
The only movie that kills me everytime for some reason I always expect her to live!
This movie is so touching one of my faves
It was a powerful, powerful scene. Gut wrenching.
This was such a happy movie. Then this happens. A real heartbreaker. 😓😢😭
that baby knew something was wrong
Sally Field Played That Role Very Good
This is why I can’t watch this movie regularly. 😭😭😭
I had to do this with my husband brain aneurism worst day of my life!
Sally field an amazing actress
Love this movie
Watching this scene now reminds me of the day my dad died. Mum and I had heard ambulance sirens and went to look. When I saw Dad lying on the ground surrounded by paramedics, I said: "It's Dad!" Mum said "Oh, no!" which were Dad's last known words before he collapsed. Luckily he'd been talking to a couple of people when it happened. The husband called the paramedics while the wife, a former nurse, started CPR. The paramedics did all they could, but after 45 minutes they said: "He's gone." Both of my brothers took it hard, as did my older nephews, who were almost eight, and my niece, who was five. My two youngest nephews, who weren't much older than little Jack Jr., didn't understand death and were told Granddad's in a special place now. At least they weren't here when it happened. The older children would have known to tell someone "Something's wrong with Granddad!" But the littlest boys would have said: "Granddad fell down. He won't get up." That's what makes this scene so hard to watch. That the little boy was with his mama when she fell down and couldn't understand why she wouldn't get up.
I was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at 9 in 1989, when this movie came out. I believed, till 2004, that pregnancy was a death sentence for me until my endo said i was good, no complications, I can have a baby. I had 1 kid and thats it! I'm still scared because of this movie.
I have to say,because of the first part of this scene, I was freaked out about having a baby.
There were times after my car accident with my baby where my body would go limp and I would fall to the floor unable to move. I would even wake unable to move my body or my body was mostly numb. I could not watch this movie after having my babies because I was so afraid I would be alone with my baby and I would not wake up.
That’s how much this movie made an impact on so many people. It’s one of those movies that suck you in and makes you feel like you were a part of someone’s life.
Fantastic movie, still tear up at parts, Sally Field especially just after the funeral
That is the only scene in a movie that will make me cry instantly just watching a clip of it. The anguish in her “why, why” is so real.
Love this movie.
Great movie great cast
I LOVE THIS MOVIE TIL THIS DAY i lived in Natchitohces La yrs ago and first place I went was they filmed this movie
Terrific movie!!! 💚 O+
I cried my eyes out at this scence
My favorite film.
Man that guy is blind that kid is screaming and pointing…
This movie 🎥🍿 was awesome 😎 I cried watching the movie
This is truly hilarious
I love Sally!
This kills me every time.
I love this movie & named my cat Shelby... My favorite😊 color has always been pink
That’s very sweet
I was in a similar situation with a close family friend. She got really really sick. She also had life support. But she passed on.
Un film bellissimo
The town where this movie was filmed, is only a few hours from my house. It was filmed in Natchitotches, LA. I still have yet to do the tour, but I'm hoping to get to it later this month.
I wasn’t expecting to cry at 10 in the morning….
Steel Magnolias is gonna be in Movie Theaters again next week… I am Not missing that for the world.
That's a good movie, just very sad.
I guess it was all 'worth' it at the end because she enjoyed 4 years of motherhood.... Mind you, her son has to grow up without a mother and her husband a widow. If only the adoption places allowed her to adopt a baby in need, she might have lived a longer life.
2009 I lost the love of my life to Leukemia. Hearing the heart monitor go flat will haunt me always.
🌟 worthy of an #Oscar
The first time I saw this movie I was a senior in high school
So sorry to read your story. Know all about asbestos, my husband has it on his lungs, being monitored for it, but not much you can do. Your brother should have had better care from the hospital.
On February 14, 2012, I was a freshman at Jackson State University, a music major, a tuba player, and the proud nephew of Blackburn Middle Schools choir director Carniece Smith. At 9 am. that morning, my mother, who was her sister (6 months apart), called me and informed me that she had lost her battle with Type 1 Diabetes. On February 14, 2012, my heart had been broken. On that day, I stopped watching this movie. I couldn't even make it 5 minutes into it without breaking down because I knew the ending. After questioning God for a while, I had to understand that he needed her more. She was at peace without those countless tubes coming from her face. They say time heals everything, but that only applies to specific events in life. Time made it easier for my family and I to deal with it, but we cry even harder because we think about all the what ifs? Seeing this clip reminds me why I don't watch this movie. I saw it first hand and maybe one day I can watch this movie again but it won't be today. She had the prettiest chocolate skin, thick beautiful black hair, a singing voice for the ages, and the sweetest heart in the world. Kindness couldn't even describe her. Love does. She was the loveliest person. Love you, NeNe. ❤ Sincerely, your nephew Christopher.
