Sandy Garossino claimed Tesla founder Elon Musk was withholding her grandchildren from her and pleaded with him to allow them to meet their great-grandmother one last time, as she was in end-of-life palliative care. Sandy Garossino, the mother of Elon Musk's ex Grimes, aka Claire Boucher, took to X on July 27 to publish a series of posts addressed to the Tesla founder, claiming that he is withholding her grandchildren from her and her mother, who is the children's great-grandmother.

Elon Musk shares three children with the Canadian musician, X Æ A-Xii, Exa Dark Sideræl, and Techno Mechanicus.

After her tweets went viral on X, netizens took to her post and commented, expressing their shock. While some users found it sad to read, others hoped the children would get to meet their great-grandmother before she passed,

Some users also noted Sandy has been very private about her family, and empathized with her.

"Grimes’ mother, Sandy Garossino, has traditionally been incredibly private about her family — so for her to tweet at @elonmusk like is really rare. Just a crushing plea from a grandmother who wants her grandkids to see their great grandma before she passes." - noted one user.
"I'm so sorry your grandchildren's father is using them to cause you and your family pain and heartbreak. Sending love to you and your mother. 💗" - a user commented.
"Sandy I'm so sorry you and your family are going through this. BC Courts have held that actions like this can constitute a form of family violence." - another user shared.

Others urged Musk to do the "right thing" and allow the children to see their great-grandmother in her last moments.

@Elonmusk huge fan of yours but you need to do the right thing here ♥️ please let them see their great grandmother" - a user requests Elon to do the "right thing."
"This is heartbreaking to read. I hope the children get to have their visit with their great grandmother, and I hope your mother is surrounded by love and comfort ❤️" - another user commented.
"@elonmusk I thought you were a conservative and find the family unit important? Why use children as a piece in your game? Let them see their great grandmother before it's too late." - a user commented.

"Please Elon, I beg you": Sandy Garossino pleads with Elon Musk

In her recent X post on July 27 addressed to Elon Musk, Sandy Garossino hoped he received the Father's Day card she helped X Æ A-Xii make and added writing on X was the only way for her to reach him. Sandy mentioned that her 93-year-old mother was in end-of-life palliative care and "yearned" to hold her great-grandchildren one last time, especially the youngest whom she hadn't met yet.

Sandy Garossino also mentioned Musk is withholding her grandchildren and their passports from their mother Grimes. She went on to question Musk about the whereabouts of her grandchildren and also asked who they were with.

In her last few posts, Sandy Garossino pleads with Musk to honor his agreement and let them meet her mother before she passes,

"Please Elon, I beg you. This is so painful for my mother, and concerning for the kids. Time is of the essence now."

Musk has been currently spotted at the ongoing Olympic games in Paris. However, it is not confirmed whether his children are with him at the games.
