ANNA NICOLE SMITH's estranged mother has gone public with her plea to attend her grandson's funeral after she was cut out of his life by the actress/model.

She added, "I sure thought when he got old enough he'd come back to Texas." In a tearful TV message to Anna Nicole, her mother said, "I love you very much and I'm so sorry about Daniel but we're here for you if you need us. ..."

The situation is so sad.
Over the past year she looked like she was starting to clean up her act some, she didn't looked so drugged out like she first did while she was taking off the weight.
I feel sorry for that baby girl she just gave birth to.
