The reality star, 61, whose son Zach underwent emergency brain surgery in February, explained it all in a photo posted on social media of him lying in a hospital bed on Monday.

‘Last week was a bit rough,’ he began.

‘Went in for what l thought was routine upper endoscopy to check out my esophagus.

According to the Mayo Clinic, an upper endoscopy ‘is a procedure used to visually examine the upper digestive system.’

Zach, unlike his siblings, was born with the same dwarfism as his parents, and the most recent seasons have focused on him and his growing family.

However, in a question and answer session on Instagram in December 2022, Zach’s wife Tori, said ‘I think our time is definitely coming to a close, but we’re trying to enjoy it while it’s here,’ when asked how much longer she thought they would be on the show.

The mom of three explained she didn’t appreciate ‘all the misconceptions people have of us and our family because they only get to see what TLC shows them.’
