Emmy Medders seeks prayers for sick father
“Asking for prayers for my precious daddy tonight. Thank you,” Emmy Medders penned in an Instagram post pretty late last night as she asked everyone to keep her father in their thoughts. Chase Chrisley’s family, friends, and Chrisley Knows Best fans raced to the comments to give Emmy and her father the prayers she requested. Even Nic Kerdiles popped into the comments to offer prayers during this difficult time.
Unfortunately, not everyone had kind words for Emmy during this difficult time. One fan noted Emmy Medders needed to have more respect for her father and his dignity. The individual noted that posting a photo of her sick father on Instagram should have been the furthest thing from her mind during this difficult time.
Another fan noticed that Julie Chrisley liked the photo and questioned how Emmy’s future mother-in-law had time to browse Instagram. Fans quickly chimed in telling trolls to back off with the negativity. Others pointed out that Julie didn’t go to jail until next month. And, even prisoners could use social media. Moreover, as those who follow Savannah Chrisley’s podcast know, Julie and Todd get help running their social media accounts from their children. Savannah Chrisley actually clarified that she turned both Todd and Julie’s comments off on Instagram to protect their mental health.
What is wrong with her father?
Sadly, Emmy Medder’s father has ALS. ALS is a nervous system disease that causes muscles to become weak and makes it more difficult to function (physically). Typically, individuals diagnosed with ALS have a two to five-year life expectancy. It, however, is not unheard of for someone to live five to ten years with proper treatment.

As fans recall, Emmy Medders reminded of her father’s ALS after getting engaged. Emmy revealed it was a huge deal that Chase made it possible for her father to be there when Chase proposed to Emmy because of her father’s health. During the same interview, Chase Chrisley noted it was super important for him that her father was there when he proposed.
