Angie revealed that she spent the day “praying” and included a Bible Verse at the beginning of her post.
She wrote in part, “God already knew it was going to happen and He already knew that I was going to desperately need Him today. I’ve had to close my eyes all day because everything was double and wavy. By keeping my eyes closed I spent the day praying and listening. Whatever you are going through today, try your best to listen to God.”
On Friday, Angie shared another update with fans via Instagram , and let her followers know that the scans were “not good” and that her cancer had grown in both her liver and brain.
Mackenzie took to Twitter to ask fans for prayers for her mom.
“As you pray today for momma @angiedouthit please pray that she not be in pain anymore. Everything hurts right now and she is miserable.”
“And just for her, remember to #alwaysbekind today and everyday,” she added.
Many of Mackenzie’s followers chimed in and told Mackenzie they would be praying for her mom.
Throughout her entire battle, Angie has remained positive as she shared her journey with followers on social media. Both Mackenzie and Angie have shared updates over the past few months.
