TLC Star Deon Derrico Called For Prayers
This time last year, after TLC fans heard that Deon’s brother, Chris passed away, they saw his son, Amani on the show. You might recall that he agreed to a DNA test to prove his bloodline to the reality TV family. He’d contacted the family via voicemail. But this week, he seemed to be very ill.
Deon Derrico called for prayers and explained that his nephew went under the knife for “a liver transplant.” The dad of 14 kids added, “He’s been extremely sick this entire year!” That sounded painful and worrying, so no doubt, TLC fans rallied to the call. Now, an update arrived, read on to find out what happened.

TLC fans who prayed for Amani waited to find out if everything went well for him. No doubt they will be relieved to hear that via his Instagram Stories, his uncle shared a new update. Fortunately, it seems as if the young man is going to be okay.
In his update, Deon Derrico thanked those TLC fans who prayed for his nephew. He said:
Thank you to everyone who sent a message and prayed for my nephew, Amani, his surgery went well, he is stable and resting.
Fans can’t comment on stories, but Amani seemed popular with fans who saw him contact Deon, and then meet his grandmother, Marian “GG.” Derrico. She hadn’t known about his birth. Then, he spent time with the family doing fun things. But, seeing him crying at his father’s grave touched the hearts of many viewers.
