All of Tammy’s siblings planned on being at the hospital during the surgery, including her sister Amy Slaton who had recently given birth to her second son.
In the episode, Amy spoke to her mother Darlene about coming to support Tammy while she was in the hospital, and Darlene’s reaction made fans furious.
Darlene said: “I’m very proud of Tammy for making it this far. I couldn’t believe it. I guess it was God’s will. She got over her bull-headedness and got down to business and got the job done.”
While Darlene wanted to be notified that her daughter was okay after surgery, she didn’t want to make the drive to the hospital.
Amy asked her mother if she wanted to drive to the hospital with her and her husband Michael, and she said no.
Darlene responded: “I can’t go. I can’t leave my babies.” The babies she was referring to are her dogs.
Amy then offered to have friends come over to feed “those d**n dogs,” but her mother already convinced herself that she couldn’t leave the house.
Darlene continued to spew excuses: “That trip would be too long for me with the way my legs are. I don’t think I could handle it.”
In a confessional, Darlene said: “I’m very sad cause I won’t be able to make it. Hopefully, they don’t call me and say, ‘Hey, you’re daughter died.’”
‘UGLY’ MOMMA
On Twitter, fans of the Slaton sisters ripped into Darlene for appearing unsupportive of Tammy’s surgery and caring more about her dogs than her daughter.
One said: “That momma is ugly inside and out. #1000lbsisters”
Another wrote: “Tammy’s mom cares more about the dogs than Tammy. Now we understand how Tammy got that big.”
A third tweeted: “So…your dogs are more important than being there for your child after her surgery?! Their mom is straight TRASH.”
Someone else said: “Tammy’s Mom not wanting to support Tammy’s surgery is insanity to me. I have fur children also. But Amy offered to have someone to stay over and babysit. This is madness.”
