She eulogized her son, whom she shared with her ex, folk singer Donal Lunny.
“This is for my Shaney,” Sinead tweeted.
“The light of my life.

The lamp of my soul.
You will always be my light.
We will always be together.

No boundary can separate us.”
I don’t deserve to live and everyone who knows me will be better off without me.
I am sorry for all the harm I caused."
There is no point living without him," as perCNN.
Shortly afterward, O’Connor followed up, apologizing for the statement and sharing that she was seeking help.
“I am with cops now on way to hospital.
I’m sorry I upset everyone,” O’Connor shared.
“I am lost without my kid and I hate myself.
Hospital will help a while.
But I’m going to find Shane.
This is just a delay.”
The singer has struggled with the effects of trauma for decades.
In 2015, her mental health worsened following a hysterectomy and the hormonal changes that followed.
She appeared to have found some stability and happiness in her life.
We hope that with help, she can find that peace again.
