The Doubling Down With The Derricos family has been on a tumultuous journey in recent years. Last year, fans learned that Deon Derrico’s late brother, Chris, had a son named Amani. While Amani faced health concerns during the previous season, he managed to carry on with his daily life. However, Deon recently reached out to fans, requesting their prayers, as Amani underwent an emergency liver transplant. Unfortunately, shortly after the transplant, Amani’s body rejected the new liver, prompting Deon to urgently ask for prayers again as his nephew returned to the transplant list. Now, Deon provides an update on Amani’s condition.
In a heartfelt post, Deon writes about his nephew Amani, describing him as healthy and well in a photo alongside other family members. It’s hard to believe that Amani is currently battling for his life. Deon admits that he hesitates to repeatedly ask for prayers, but the situation has reached a critical point for Amani. Metaphorically, he explains that Amani will either sink or swim through this difficult time. Deon appeals to God to ease the burden on their family, particularly Amani’s mother Stacey, his other grandmother, his brother, aunts, his son, Deon’s children, and GG (great-grandmother). Deon pleads with everyone to pray for Amani and the entire DERRICO/Barkley family.

Accompanying the update, Deon and Gigi share a video, further emphasizing the urgency of the situation. They earnestly ask for prayers specifically for their nephew, Amani Barkley.
The Derrico family remains hopeful and relies on the support and prayers of their fans during this challenging time. Their strength and unity serve as an inspiration to others, as they navigate the uncertainties and hardships that life presents.
