And I'm saying, "it's okay,
tommy. It's okay, tommy. "
Meanwhile,
I look like a total hooker.
the ambulance to get there...
I want to say 25 minutes later.
They were like,
"do you have his I.D.?
Do you have his I.D.?"
And I was like,
"what the f*** does it matter?!
Just get him on the ambulance!"
- So, I got to the e. R.,
And they took me into a room
where alex was,
And she was hysterical.
- And when I first saw shane,
I said, "I wish it were me. "
I said, "because you two
have each other,
"and the love you have
is so strong,
I wish it had been me
who fell over. "
- I asked her, you know,
"well, what's happening?
Are they working on him?"
I didn't know anything.
And she didn't know anything.
- We hugged, you know,
and we said we loved each other.
And I was still hanging
on to hope that he was okay.
And I couldn't get through
to him.
And, finally, he calls me back.
He said, "mom,
And he fell off the roof. "
And I just... "oh, my god. "
I said,
"honey, just keep on praying.
He'll be fine. You know, we'll
- I got a text message from shane
saying,
"michaela, please pray...
tom's hurt. "
And I immediately got down
and started praying.
- So, a little bit later,
he calls me,
And he says, "mom, they won't
let me in to see him. "
And I said, "well, how come?"
And they said,
"because I'm not family. "
And I just...
"oh, my god, shane. "
- So, I called tom's mom.
And it's, you know,
late at night in indiana.
And, you know, the first thing
she says was,
"well, how much
was he drinking, shane?"
And then his dad,
in the background, was saying,
"well, what the hell
was he doing on the roof?"
From that point forward,
I made sure
To let the nursing staff
or the doctors
Speak to her and to him.
And it had been probably
about an hour later,
The doctor came into the room,
and, like, I just knew.
Like, I knew
what he was gonna say.
And when he was talking,
Like, it wasn't registering
in my head.
Like, I wasn't processing
what he said.
- He just said he didn't make it.
And it was very, you know...
And we all just lost it.
- I had to just leave the room
because I couldn't hear it.
- Alex was crying, and she was
continually doing this...
I think because
she was just so traumatized.
And alex's mom was saying,
"oh, my god.
Oh, my god. "
"oh, his mother. "
'cause mother's day
was the next day.
- So, I went outside.
I called my mom, and...
And I was like, "mom, he died. "
And, you know, she just said,
"I'm so sorry, shane.
I'm so sorry. "
And he was just crying,
and I'm crying.
And, you know, here you are,
again, 1,500 miles away,
And you can't be there
for your child.
I got ahold of him,
And tom had just died
in the hospital, and...
I don't know.
It's not a moment
I want to ever go through again.
- The worst pain
I have ever felt in my heart.
Like, I just sunk.
- I just said,
"are you f***ing kidding me?
Seriously?" I said,
"seriously, who dies like that?"
- I figured shane was probably
there when he passed,
By his bed, holding his hand.
And he said no.
So, I went to the nurse's
station, and I said,
"you know,
my friend's boyfriend is here.
He just passed away.
Can you take him back?"
And she said, "we can't allow
non-family members to see him
Until his parents arrive. "
So I kept trying
to argue with this nurse.
And the lady was like,
"I understand, honey... I do.
"but it's against
the hospital rules.
He's not his family. "
I said, "but he is his family.
"they have a house together.
They have a business together.
"they have
a dog together.
They've been together
for six years. "
Finally,
we were sitting a the room,
And this one nurse
opened the door,
And she said,
"is shane in here?"
And so we went outside,
And she was holding
tom's license,
And she said, "man, he was
a good-looking guy. Geez.
"and all the nurses back here
are talking
"about how handsome he was,
"and we've been working back
here to try to kind of...
"make him look
the way that you remember him.
Come with me.
We're gonna take you back. "
I think, at the end of the day,
the nurses knew,
You know, it's not a gay thing.
It's not a straight thing.
It's a human thing.
But it was definitely a gift,
I think,
That those women gave to shane.
- So, they walked back
to his room.
There was tubes
all over his body,
Tubes coming out of his chest.
His face was covered,
but you could see that
There, you know, had been blood,
like, all around his face.
And it didn't really seem
like this was happening.
I just stood there for awhile.
I didn't know what to do.
But the only place
that I could put my hand
Was like on his leg.
And I did, you know,
one final "tap, tap, tap. "
- # oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
# oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
# I woke up this morning
# and I heard the news
# I know the pain
of a heartbreak #
- # I don't have answers
# and neither do you
# I know the pain
of a heartbreak #
# this isn't easy
# this isn't clear
- # and you don't need jesus
# till you're here
# oh, the confusion
and the doubts you had #
# up and walk away
# they walk awa-a-a-y
- # when a heart breaks
# when a heart breaks
- A man fell to his death
From a four-story
apartment building
In los feliz last night.
Police say he was taking
pictures of a woman.
They don't suspect foul play,
And are calling his death
a tragic accident.
He was an actor and tv host.
- The days after tom passed away
are kind of a blur.
There was nothing I wanted more
Than just to have my family
there with me.
That my parents,
although they're divorced,
That they were able to just say,
"look, like,
we're gonna be there for you. "
as well.
My dad and I,
We went to go pick up tom's car
at alex's place.
And during the car ride home,
for the first time.
- I wanted him to know,
anything since he'd come out,
I think we even talked
about how tom's dad must feel,
Because tom's dad
never accepted tom,
And I wanted it be known
that I accepted my son.
- For the first time ever,
I didn't care about telling
my dad that I was gay.
I didn't care about
acknowledging
That tom and I were
in a relationship.
I just felt, like, fearless.
But it didn't matter anymore.
And tom was gone.
So, I picked martha
up from the airport,
And we went to our house.
She wanted to talk
about bank accounts...
not want to talk about.
- I remember her looking
around the rooms a lot.
And I didn't really want
to think that way.
I had the feeling
That she just wanted
to go through his stuff.
- She wanted to go through
all of shane and tom's clothes.
He let her go through
