Teddi Mellencamp is recovering from surgery which removed several tumors from her brain.
At the time of her surgery, the accountability coach revealed her skin cancer had metastasized to her brain.
She didn’t specify whether the tumors were benign or malignant, but she did reveal she has brain cancer via her Instagram story.
“Sometime a little brain cancer is all you need to get your best friends to visit,” the 43-year-old said.
Teddi is currently set to receive radiation now that the staples from her brain surgery have been removed.
In fact, even more tumors than they originally anticipated were removed from the former Beverly Hills housewife.
Just four days ago, Teddi posted a long awaited update on her health — both physically and mentally.
An Update
“I am so grateful for the incredible surgeons, doctor, and nurses who made my surgery a success and my recovery process comfortable,” Teddi begins. “In full transparency, more tumors were removed than expected: 4 in total.”
“This fight is not over, but that round has been won. The laughter, support, and patience of my kids, my family, and my closest friends is one gift with which words cannot properly express my gratitude. As I move on to the next steps in my treatment, I just wanted to say thank you to everybody for the outpouring of love and prayers. I see them, and they’re definitely helping me stay strong.”
