Teddi Mellencamp has been bravely bringing fans along on her journey to beat cancer after revealing that doctors found tumors on her brain earlier this year. The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star has been battling Stage 4 melanoma that spread to her lungs and brain. Despite the frightening diagnosis, Teddi has been open and honest about what it’s been like for her to focus so fiercely on healing.
Despite the cancer battle, Teddi is doing all she can to work and continue living her life, including podcasting with her BFF Tamra Judge. In the latest episode of the Two T’s In A Pod, Teddi gave another honest update about her health after undergoing a recent MRI scan.
Teddi Mellencamp is still “Stage 4 cancer,” but tumors have not grown
In a clip, Tamra asked Teddi to give the listeners an update. Teddi revealed she recently decided to get scanned following another episode of headaches. Thankfully, she had good news to share. “The doctors came in and said that the tumors have not grown at all. If anything, they’re shrinking,” Teddi said. “I am in the 1% range of improvement, but I am still stage 4 cancer.”
Tamra asked Teddi if she felt a sense of happiness or relief following the scan. “Do you want me to lie?” she asked before giving her honest answer. “No, there wasn’t. Because I believe I’m going to go in and they’re going to say, ‘Wow, it’s a miracle and you no longer have any cancer,’” she continued. Again, Teddi literally couldn’t be more raw about her experience, and she doesn’t owe anyone that. We wish her good health and healing as she continues her battle.
