Julie Chrisley's letter to Savannah about health scare in prison

Earlier, Savannah talked about a letter from her mother Julie on her podcast 'Unlocked with Savannah Chrisley'.

In the letter, Julie said that she may have a tumor. She battled breast cancer in 2012 and underwent a double mastectomy and hysterectomy.

"'I was called out to the doctor,'" Savannah read on March 5.

"'I walked in thinking it was gynecology. I sat down with the doctor and she proceeds to tell me that my HCG level was high—10.2,'" Julie Chrisley wrote in the letter.

“This is a pregnancy hormone. It should not be that high. If it were a little higher, I would test positive on a pregnancy test. Since that's not a possibility, it could be a sign of a tumor," it continued.

"This right here is a perfect example of the lack of health care that you receive in the system and how they're not the most educated doctors that work for the BOP,” Savannah said in response to her mother’s letter.
