Shawn Ryan Show

Wynonna Judd recalls the devastating day she received news of her mother's death on April 30th. After being urgently summoned to her mother's house by their life coach, she arrived to find emergency services present and learned of the death from a hospital staff member who didn't realize she hadn't been informed yet.

Summary

This transcript captures Wynonna Judd's emotional recounting of one of the most difficult days of her life. She describes receiving a phone call around 11:00 a.m. from the family's life coach urgently instructing her to go to her mother's house immediately. Upon arrival, she witnessed the scene depicted in movies—multiple police cars, an ambulance, and caution tape—which immediately signaled that something was seriously wrong. She ran upstairs and found her mother on the floor. Emergency responders placed her mother on a stretcher and transported her to an ambulance, with Wynonna following close behind. At the hospital, a staff member approached her and said, 'I'm so sorry for your loss,' not realizing that Wynonna hadn't yet been informed of her mother's death. In the hospital room, Wynonna and her sister Ashley approached their mother's body—Ashley going to their mother's feet while Wynonna went to her upper body. In a final moment of goodbye, Wynonna closed her mother's eyes, kissed her forehead, and whispered, 'I love you, Mom,' before leaving the room.
