Today (Aug 22.) former Real Housewives Of Atlanta star Cynthia Bailey took to Instagram to share a photo of her staying by her mother, Barbara Bailey’s, side while she is hospitalized at Emory University Hospital for surgery. Cynthia Bailey’s caption read:

“SURGERY DAY. Thank you for all the love, phone calls, texts and prayers everyone. my mother @barbarafmorris is a little anxious & nervous but otherwise in good spirits mentally and emotionally.”

The 55-year-old explained:

“Her blood pressure was too high to operate when they prepped her but thankfully they were able to get it down before the surgery. now we pray and wait. CONTINUE to pray with me & my family for a successful surgery & a speedy recovery. #breastcancer #breastcancerawareness #earlydetectioniskey #barbaramorris #familyfirst”

Earlier this month, the actress and model revealed to her followers that her mother found out she was battling the disease following a mammogram checkup.

Bailey explained:

“THE POWER OF FAMILY & PRAYER. Just recently my beautiful mother @barbarafmorris was diagnosed with breast cancer.  She didn’t feel anything but it showed up on her most recent mammogram.”

She continued:

“We took her to her first doctors appointment yesterday to confirm what stage and her treatment options. By the grace of God, we caught it early & it is only stage one.  With surgery to remove the cancer & radiation she is going to be fine. Initially I only shared this information with close friends & family but after getting the great news yesterday that my mom is going to be ok, I felt inclined to share it with all of you.”

Bailey added:

“Thank you for all the love & prayers & well wishes.  Ladies please make sure you get your mammograms yearly.  Early detection is key! I am scheduling my next one today!”

We send our prayers to Cynthia’s mother & their family.
