He took to Instagram again on Wednesday and it looks like things are looking up. Sheets' granddaughter Zoie sat next to him on the hospital bed. She wore a cream hoodie with a yellow smiley face on the front.

The short-haired teenager and her grandfather were both smiling up at the camera. Sheets was laying down wearing a green hospital gown. A rectangular device was wrapped onto one of his hands.

In the caption he wrote:

"Thanks for coming to see me Zoie love you. You are a strong girl."

Sheets wore the same type of gown in the previous picture he posted when he initially let his fans in on what was going on with him. That picture featured fiancee Romney Snyder.

Sheets then asked his fans to send prayers his way before doing surgery. He thanked them for their support of the show and finished by mentioning Snyder who he called "a good woman" for sticking by his side.

"Storage Wars" has been on A&E for 11 seasons now. Sheets experienced the most success on the show when he found some Pablo Picasso paintings, a letter written by Abraham Lincoln, and a comic book collection.
