Duane "Dog" Chapman is asking fans to "please say your prayers for Beth right now." His wife, Beth Chapman, is in a medically induced coma, CBS reports. She and Dog are in Hawaii where Beth is being treated at Queen's Medical Center's intensive care unit.

Beth underwent surgery to treat throat cancer in 2017. While successful, her cancer returned last year. She had another surgery in November to remove a tumor in her throat. This April, she was hospitalized again because of fluid in her lungs and underwent a procedure to relieve pressure.

Duane tweeted to fans Saturday asking for prayers for Beth, then shared a news article written by Hawaii News Now. In a statement to the newspaper, the family "humbly ask everyone to please pray for Beth" and sent their "sincere thanks to everyone for their prayers throughout Beth’s battle with cancer."

Only immediate family has been allowed to see Beth, a representative for the Chapman family said in a statement. Fans and friends have reached out to share their support on social media, though. Longtime friend Bobby Brown said this:

BREAKING NEWS: My dear friend #DuaneDogChapman posted this PLEA for “US” all to #PRAYforBETH I DO, I have and I continue to #PRAY for my awesome FRIEND #BethChapman His life partner as she is in the HOSPITAL in induced #COMA. “WE” have been together since 1989. PRAYERS PLEASE. RT
