But the message remains the same from local community activists who gave a statement on her behalf.
The family is pleading for justice for Elijah Flores.
He died at a hospital after he was seriously hurt at the Clinton Green Line downtown CTA station on Aug. 10.
That's where police say the 9-year-old boy was with a 22-year-old man who got into an argument with two others along the Green Line.
Those two suspects chased after the man and Flores. That's when police say an object was thrown at them, causing both to fall down the stairs.
It's a tragedy that has taken Flores from his mother.

A local activist shared the woman's heartbreak and said more about the little boy.
"The family needs justice. Elijah was a little boy who loved karaoke. He loved Michael Jackson songs, and he loved singing along to them," said Lisette Guillen, director of Case Files Chicago. "Esmeralda says Eli was a kind, funny, hyper, beautiful boy that didn't deserve this."
Flores' mother says her boy will forever be a hero, as they've decided to donate his organs to others in need.
At this time, police are still investigating with CTA, as there is surveillance video of the incident.
CTA extended its condolences to the family, and the family thanked the agency for cooperating with the investigation, in hopes of finding the people responsible.
The medical examiner ruled Flores' death a homicide caused by blunt force trauma.
No one is in custody.
