Amy and Tammy’s family dynamic also leads to more issues. Amy and her husband are struggling to conceive amid their dreams of starting a family. Meanwhile, Tammy has moved in with them and she requires assistance on a daily basis.

Viewers will get to see the sisters try to find a happy balance while doing whatever it takes to get their health back on track. However, there will definitely be road bumps along the way. At one point of the clip, their doctor gives the siblings a stern warning.

“I’m ready to cancel the surgery, I don’t see us going forward with it with the progress you’re making right now,” he says.
