Bear himself has lots to be thankful for. He felt grateful for having his parents and siblings by his side. Fans of the show know that the family’s matriarch fought a hard battle with cancer, which almost caused her demise last year. With extensive treatment, unrelenting faith, and family support, Ami has been on remission since earlier this year. The family has relocated to their new home in Washington where she will continue her recovery.

Bear said his mom’s worsening condition last year scared him to death. He’s very happy that his mom was given another shot at life. He added that she’s gradually recovering and she’s doing good so far.
