Whitney Way Thorecontinues to support her mom through her health struggles.
In PEOPLE’s exclusive sneak peek of Tuesday’s episode ofMy Big Fat Fabulous Life, Thore prepares to attend the wedding of her good friend Jessica along with her parents — mother Barbara, “Babs,” andfather Glenn.
Thore, 38, admits she’s nervous about her mom attending the wedding because it’s her first time venturing out since suffering a second stroke in December 2021.
“I am so stressed for this day…this is a really special day for my mom. It’s gonna be the first time that she has left the hospital or Abbottswood ever,” she says in a confessional, referring to her parents' assisted living community.

In the clip, Thore and Jessica share a sweet moment with Babs before the ceremony, encouraging her to dance at the reception in her wheelchair.
“Oh God,” Babs responds while they all laugh.
Thore and Jessica promise to help Babs move around the wedding — as long as she attempts to dance. Babs then shows off her best shoulder roll.
“I better see that on the dance floor tonight, ma’am,” Jessica says jokingly.

“I’m so happy, mommy. Today is gonna be such a fun day. Are you so excited?” Whitney asks before Babs gives her a big smile.
“You’re so cute, you’re my girl,” she adds and gives her mother a kiss. “I love you.”
