Biance Busby fundraiser raises more than $2,900 for TikToker's mom amid mental health struggle

TikTok user Biance Busby recently took to the video sharing platform to criticize netizens who were taunting her with unflattering pictures of her mother. The internet personality shared that certain followers of hers were sending her images of her mother looking asleep on a bus stop bench and were questioning why she was not taking care of her mother. Since then, Busby has created a fundraiser and revealed that her mom is suffering from mental heath issues.

Biance Busby took to her TikTok account under the name of mamab8033 to reveal that her mother has been struggling with mental health issues following the passing of Busby's elder brother, who died by suicide in 2013.

Biance Busby also revealed that her mother is schizophrenic, suffers from bipolar disorder, and "has a lot going on." She went on to add that her mother has not been able to keep a job due to her mental health struggles and that has led to her landing in the streets, similar to the picture that has gone viral.

Speaking about how people have taken concerning images of her mother and posted them online, Biance Busby said:

"The whole purpose of this video is I want you all to see how evil people are and how corrupt people are and it's crazy because people be wondering why they going through what they going through, but it's the sh*t that you're out here doing. I'd never record or take a picture of someone sitting down at a bus stop and post it on social media and pick at them."

Biance Busby went on to claim that people were using expletives against her mother, and it was mostly Black people who were attacking her mother online.

The TikToker went on to share a video of her mother in a better light. The parent could be seen giving her daughter Busby a kiss and looking much healthier.

Meanwhile, Biance Busby has created a fundraiser to ensure that her mother gets the help she needs.
