Today is my last day at
@WTOC11
. Getting to be the first woman to hold the Sports Director title in the Savannah market has been my favorite accomplishment of my career, and something I never took lightly.
Thank you to EVERYONE who played a part in my time here. 💙
This is Key Parrish before and after COVID. Key is a 14-year-old freshman football player at Statesboro High. He has been diagnosed with myocarditis. I spoke with Key & his mother today about his weeks-long battle with
#Covid19
. He’s been in the hospital more than a week.
Jeff Sheppard says on ESPN Lexington that Reed & the family are still gathering information, but he’s already had a conversation with Mark Pope about Reed

@wkytsports
team in October.
My last day at WTOC is September 30th.
TOUCHING TRIBUTE: In March, Georgia Tech football player Brandon Adams died suddenly. Today would have been his senior day. In his memory, one teammate has worn his number 90 jersey each game. His best friend Chris Martin wore it today & presented it to the family.
@WTOC11
Guess who is BACK at
@WTOC11
beginning today! It’s been almost 75 days since I’ve been able to work because of
#COVID19
and complications. I’m coming back in a modified/limited capacity for the ti’e being, but excited to share your stories again.

Since my coworkers know, I’ll make it official: I’m the new
@WTOC11
Sports Director! Thrilled for the opportunity and to bring you all more stories on our incredible local athletes and teams. 💙
Just interviewed a hospitalized COVID patient. My first COVID story since actually having it. Makes me realize how far I’ve come. Never want to feel like that again. Keep this patient in your prayers as well...a long road ahead
Everyone says that UK freshman guard Reed Sheppard plays more like his mom, Stacey, than his dad.
Today I got a chance to talk to the woman who still holds UK women's basketball records, while her son chases his own.

Today I got my results- I tested positive for COVID-19. I’ve been pretty sick for a week & as I’m sure you’ve heard, it’s miserable. I got tested Friday, and in case anyone forgot, the pandemic is very real and very much still happening.
Wash your hands. Wear a mask.
1 year ago Today I unknowingly interviewed someone with COVID-19, exposing myself. That day changed the rest of my year pretty drastically. So thankful to be healthy this year.
Life update: after entering my name in the TV transfer portal, I’ll be taking my talents to WTOC in Savannah, GA reporting the news and serving as their weekend sports anchor. Excited to get back to work at the number one station in the market!
We sold one of my dad’s trucks yesterday and even though I know we had to, I’m still sad about it. Was going through pictures and I never really saw the resemblance until I put these two together 😂 stuntin like my daddy
BREAKING: This morning the GBI arrested Gregory McMichael, age 64, and Travis McMichael, age 34, for the death of
#AhmaudArbery
. They were both charged with murder and aggravated assault. The McMichaels were taken into custody and booked into the Glynn County Jail.
Today we laid my step mom to rest after a very tough battle with COVID-19. My dad is still fighting this thing and wasn’t able to be there. If you were on the fence about getting the vaccine to protect yourself & loved ones, let this be your sign. Tell people you love them.
PRAISE! My nose tube is OUT! Still got a ways to go & my surgeon was explaining how difficult the COVID has made my surgery and recovery, but I instantly feel better
2021 wasn’t so great to me, but I’m happy to end it on a high note- covering a bucket-list event with some of my favorite media pals around. Here’s to 2022, may it be kinder to all of us. 🖤
Levis on Georgia: "Hopefully we come out with our piss hot next week and have some motivation because we're playing against a good team. It's a shame we can't do that when we're playing a team like Vanderbilt."
QB1 visibly frustrated after that loss Saturday.
No. 2 Transy WBB is being sent on the road to Wisconsin for the second round of the NCAA tournament (last year they hosted until the Final Four, which was neutral site). TU's President sent this statement to NCAA President Charlie Baker.

Hall of Fame jockey Edgar Prado celebrated his retirement today at

with Sarava. He played the call from their historic upset in the 2002 Belmont Stakes win for the now 24-year-old horse while giving him some snacks. 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹
Drove 700 miles in 24 hours and I haven’t been asleep since 10 am yesterday all just to see this kid give her valedictorian speech. Proud big sister 🥰🎓
“Don't go looking for the reasons. Don't go asking Jesus why. We're not meant to know the answers. They belong to the by and by.” 💙
Laid my daddy to rest today. Still doesn’t feel real. Covid has robbed my family of so much.
Hi everyone. Got some messages of concern. I’m still here- just haven’t had strength to post or reply. Will not be discharged Monday as planned. I’m still tubed and can’t eat or drink and I’m still in quite a bit of pain. Thank you for the concern & thoughts.
Today’s update: elevated blood sugar and my lungs sound “diminished”, but respiratory therapist said “you look a hell of a lot better” and I’ve been able to tolerate more foods.
No big news to report today. Sadly, tube is still in and causing major sore throat. I’ve developed an MRSA infection in my nose. Other than that, levels & vitals are good. again, appreciate every single person who has reached out or prayed
BLUE GETS IN! ⚾️➡️🏈

NEW: I obtained a copy of John Calipari's official resignation letter to the University of Kentucky and Athletic Director Mitch Barnhart. UK received the letter at 2:00 P.M. Tuesday, just minutes before Cal posted his farewell video on social media.
This was me 1 year ago today. I had no idea what the road to recovery would look like, but I feel incredibly thankful for my health and all the kindness and support I received.
