Balancing life’s challenges and blessings at the same time! Randi Mahomes is no stranger to dealing with hardships. Since the divorce from Patrick Mahomes’s father, she has been handling it all alone. She juggled two jobs at the same time to raise her kids. As a result, the Kansas City Chiefs’s quarterback has become one of the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history. But that doesn’t mean everything goes well in Randi’s life.
Last year, the 53-year-old requested her fans to pray for her hospitalized daddy, Randy Martin. Probably, the prayers and Randi Mahomes’s hope brought fruitful results as the former school principal returned home after being discharged.
However, since the start of this year, Patrick Mahomes’s grandfather’s health again started to deteriorate. This tough phase has now compelled Randi Mahomes to think about her mother, Debbie Bates, whom she lost on April 5, 2023, at the age of 72.

Yes! Almost two years have passed, but the pain of losing her still feels impossible to heal for Patrick Mahomes’s mom. Now as her father remains in the hospital, Randi has no parent besides her to share any news. That’s why it seems she longs for her mother on X, as she wrote: “I really wish I could call my mom… I always knew she would be as excited as me on what I had to say. Miss you momma so very much it hurts.”
Randi Mahomes didn’t reveal what she wanted to share with mommy. But whatever it is, she wishes for her momma, who died because of a prolonged illness, to be with her.

To the people who are unaware, hospice is actually a care and comfort given to someone who is seriously ill and is nearing the end of their lives. And that’s the reason why Randi Mahomes is out of words now.
