On the next episode of Doubling Down with the Derricos, fans will have to brace themselves as GG will go to the doctor with Deon to discuss her lung cancer treatment. There will be a difference of opinion between the mother-son duo regarding the treatment.

"I want her to fight, fight, fight."
Meanwhile, we will see Darian getting anxious to retake her drivers learning license test. The younger Derricos will go to their first singing lesson. As seen in a recent promo, the kids will find the lesson weird, but they seem to enjoy learning how to sing.
Karen reveals that she found it weird that her kids had to learn how to sing. She said,
"For me growing up in the church, it was like you were born with it."
Deon confesses that he used to take the vocal class of Maddy Moss Clark of Detroit, but he left the coaching due to financial issues, so he wanted his kids to have the singing experience.
The synopsis of the episode reads as follows:
"The Derrico six want to take their singing ambitions to the next level; Darian's fear of failure threatens to overwhelm her when she tries once again to get her driver's permit; Deon and GG are at odds over how to treat her cancer."
Doubling Down with the Derricos Season 3 Episode 10 recap
Last week on Doubling Down with the Derricos, fans were heartbroken to learn that GG's cancer had returned. Deon revealed that his 72 year old mother had a cancerous tumor in her lungs. She had confessed to having health issues and pain in her lungs in previous episodes.
GG chose to improve her health first and decided on having a good time with her grandchildren. She enjoyed Darian's birthday party, which the family celebrated in a family amusement park.
Karen canceled plans to move to South Carolina with the family after learning about GG's health condition. Darian refused to move in with her family, leaving GG all alone in Las Vegas, so Karen chose not to take such an important step at the moment.
Derrick told his father that he wanted to do boxing. Deon had his apprehensions over Derrick's newfound interest as he never thought his son would be involved in such a sport. Deon revealed that he used to skate as a child but eventually allowed Derrick to train for the sport as long as his grades weren't affected.
Karen and Deon chaperoned Darian to her birthday dinner. Deon was skeptical of Darian's male friend Dupree coming to the party and spent the whole dinner worrying about Darian being close to a boy.
Doubling Down with the Derricos Season 3 Episode 11 airs on May 3 on TLC at 10:00PM ET.
