Jolinda Wade, mother of Dwyane Wade, expressed her deep emotional connection with her son through a heartfelt letter during his appearance on TODAY. The letter recalls her struggles, including a past with addiction and incarceration in the 1990s, and emphasizes the transformative love she has for her children. Dwyane Wade reflected on these experiences in his book, noting his mother’s capable love and support. Today, Jolinda Wade has turned her life around, becoming a pastor, aided by a church established by her son in 2008.
"There is no question I worried about my mother when she was out at night, and loved her so much I couldn't sleep because I wanted her to come home and let me know she was okay."
"But there is also no question that JoLinda Morris Wade's love for her children and her desire to see us achieve our dreams was the most important truth of my early years."
"I thought I wouldn't have a son because I already had three beautiful daughters - your sisters: Deanna, Keisha and Tragil."
"You are and have always been just that - a blessing. A blessing definitely to me and to so many others whose lives you have touched."
