Reality star shares deadly melanoma update as doctors discuss prognosis
Fox News
Reality star and podcaster Teddi Mellencamp is fighting for her life after the spread of a deadly form of skin cancer — and on Wednesday, she revealed some optimistic news.
"What we have to remember is that my cancer was skin cancer. The last time we spoke here was, like, I had skin cancer, melanoma, on my back," the mother of three shared during a recent interview with Extra. "My tumors have significantly shrunk, which doctors believe means that this all will work and that I will be back to myself." "Her courage in sharing her story and raising awareness of melanoma may just make the difference in someone else receiving lifesaving care." Melissa Rudy is senior health editor and a member of the lifestyle team at Fox News Digital. Story tips can be sent to melissa.rudy@fox.com.
"This metastasized, which is still a form of melanoma, but into my brain, into my lungs."
