For Darryl Strawberry, the last couple of months have been rough; however, finally, he has found some hope. Fans across social media flooded the veteran’s Instagram account with prayers after the former Yankees star shared an emotional message related to his wife’s recovery.

The four-time World Series champion interacted with his fans through his Instagram account by posting a glimpse into his and his wife’s “very challenging” journey. “This really has been some very challenging times for us, but we wanted to thank God for his Grace and Mercy!” The former Dodger posted a photo of himself sitting on his wife Tracy’s hospital bed.

“My Heart Has Been Heavy Lately 🥲 And Needing To Say Thanks For Being There For My Wife; ❤️” His wholehearted words mirrored both his pain and gratitude as the couple continues to lean on faith. In his post, Darryl Strawberry showed that Tracy is finally coming home after going through “back-to-back surgeries and major health challenges.”

He thanked everybody who stood by them. “Thank you to all the Doctors and Nurses for your incredible care and dedication in helping my wife through back-to-back surgeries and major health challenges. Your compassion has meant the world to our family during this difficult time, and you hold a special place in our hearts.” 

Social media was quick to recall the couple’s tale, one with deep-seated faith and redemption.

Tracy and Darryl met in 2006 at a drug recovery convention, and both have been open about their struggles and path of self-control. “Your unwavering spirit inspires us all,” Darryl wrote earlier this year, praising her strength amidst her diagnosis. “Despite your own struggles, you keep getting up for work and continue to put our family and other people’s needs first, embodying the selflessness that defines you.” It is a message that strikes a chord with many who have followed their journey from hardship to healing. In a follow-up post after a recent setback, he shared another moment of faith and resilience.

“This afternoon brought a setback for my wife after so many wonderful, good moments following her surgery on Monday,” he wrote. “But I sat by her bedside, laid my hands on her, and prayed in the Spirit, trusting God to bring peace and healing. She fell asleep peacefully and woke up feeling much better.”

Later, he expressed his gratitude to their church and friends, too.

“A big thank you to our Church @journeychurch.family Pastor Jesse and team, for being the hands and feet of Christ when we needed it most… We are truly grateful to each and every one of you who has taken the time to pray for us during this difficult moment.”

The 1986 Mets WS champion ended his post with the best update yet and a message filled with joy.

“She’s Coming Home Tomorrow Morning! 😍✝️ We Love You All. Darryl and Tracy 🍓.” For fans, it is a rewarding moment of faith and a reminder that even in the hardest times, love and prayer can carry you through.
