Cheyenne Floyd and Cory Wharton's daughter is on the road to recovery. 

The Teen Mom parents and had to take their 4-year-old daughter, Ryder, to the hospital on Valentine's Day after she fell sick. They haven't shared what exactly happened, but in an update on Cheyenne's Instagram Story, she said, "She is home from the hospital now and resting."

Cheyenne, 29, continued, "This isn't how I thought my day would end up. After flying to Miami and getting that call that she wasn't well and coming right back home, it's been a long emotional day." 

In the photo, she showed herself in bed with Ryder, along with her fiancé Zach Davis and the couple's 8-month old son Ace Davis.

"Although we had other plans I wouldn't want to be anywhere else right now," she said. "I am blessed to be in the bed snugging with my babies."

Ryder, now healing, had other concerns in mind. After posting another photo of the MTV star's children snuggled up in their pajamas, Cheyenne said on her Instagram Story, "Ryder has been great today and getting better. All she's worried about is that she missed the Valentine's Day party at school."

After Ryder was first sent to the hospital on Monday, Feb. 14, Cory posted a video to his Instagram story of his "warrior" in the hospital wishing everyone a happy Valentine's Day. 

Ryder said in the video captured by The U.S. Sun, "Hey guys, my Valentine's Day is doing some sickness in the hospital." Referring to the IV in her arm, she continued, "And I got this in my arm, so brave." 

Despite the hospital visit, Ryder said her Valentine's Day was "great and good."

"I'm really proud of you," her 30-year-old father replied. "I'm glad you're feeling better." 

According to Insider, Cheyenne has previously shared that Ryder was diagnosed with Very Long-chain Acyl-CoA Dehydrogenase-Deficiency—or VLCAD—which means that her body can't properly convert fats into energy. In her first eight months, Ryder was fed every two hours to avoid any fasting period. Once she gained enough weight, the doctors determined it was a mild case. 

After spending so much time learning about the rare disease and treating her daughter, Cheyenne started a nonprofit in 2018, called Rage Regardless Ry, which helps families dealing with metabolic conditions.
