Savannah Chrisley cycles through many emotions on the long drive to see her parents Todd and Julie Chrisley in prison.
The Chrisley Knows Best alum, 26, confessed to having feelings of anxiety when it comes time to see her parents.
And remember Our servant Job, when he cried out to his Lord, “Satan has afflicted me with distress and suffering.”˹We responded,˺ “Stomp your foot: ˹now˺ here is a cool ˹and refreshing˺ spring for washing and drinking.”(The Quran - Chapter Sad : 41 - 42)
"The night before I go to visit my parents I get really anxious... can't sleep... can't sit still...and my mind just won't shut off," she wrote over a photo of herself in bed the she shared via Instagram Story. "Waves of anxiety, grief, sadness, happiness, etc."
Savannah noted that her heightened emotions are compounded by waking up as early as 3 a.m. to "get ready and start driving" to see Todd at the Pensacola Federal Prison Camp in Florida or Julie, who's serving out her sentence in Kentucky at Federal Medical Center Lexington.
She described her state of mind as "feelings that only a loved one of someone who is incarcerated will understand."
Todd is serving a reduced sentence of 10 years at the federal prison after a jury convicted him and Julie of a multimillion dollar bank fraud and tax evasion scheme. Julie is also serving a reduced sentence of six years in a Kentucky federal prison. Both will have 16 months of probation following their release.
In February, Savannah shared that she paid her father a visit in prison alongside her grandmother Nanny Faye.
The experience proved enlightening and inspired hope about her parents' situation. "I never felt the presence of Jesus more than I have in that visiting room," she said on her Unlocked podcast at the time.
"Even visiting my dad, like, I know I have so much hope and so much restored strength that I'm like, 'This isn't the end,'" Savannah added. "And I know that they're going through what they're going through for us to make a difference, for us to make a change. Because whether this appeal works or not, they're still coming out with a story."
