Episode 4 of Doubling Down with the Derricos season 4 aired on TLC this Tuesday, June 20, at 10 pm ET. GG told her son Deon bad news in this episode, shocking fans. She revealed that her cancerous tumor had grown in size. This was shocking because, after April, the tumor size had decreased when she was taking alternative medicine.
In GG's July CAT scan, the doctor revealed that the tumor had grown, meaning she needed to take the traditional chemotherapy path. She was worried about the same and refused to do it initially as she had already faced the painful treatment once in 2014.
She confessed that chemo was rough on her at the time and that even breathing was tough for her. Deon was worried for his mother but hoped the chemo would handle the aggressive cancer and save his mother. Doubling Down with the Derricos fans felt bad for GG and prayed for her better health.
