RHOBH alum, Teddi Mellencamp just gave an update after her emergency brain surgery to remove two tumors. Her friends and estranged husband, Edwin Arroyave had been praying and giving quick updates on how she was doing. Now, she is sharing that her fight is not yet over. Keep reading for more details on what the next steps are.
Teddi Mellencamp Shares Her Fight’s Not Over
When Teddi Mellencamp shared that she was going in for emergency brain surgery, it was terrifying. She already battled melanoma and had a giant scar on her back to show for it. Teddi remained diligent about getting checked and then, she got a horrible headache that lasted too long. It ultimately led her to the hospital where she learned that she had brain tumors that had been growing. Immediately, she was prepping for surgery to have two removed. They shaved her head and she was surrounded by her estranged husband, Edwin Arroyave, and close friends, Morgan Wade, and Kyle Richards.
Teddi’s sister and Edwin said they had never seen her in so much pain after the procedure. Everyone was still praying for her, even Vicki Gunvalson. Although the two housewives had butted heads in the past, Vicki noted that all of that went away when Teddi fell ill. Teddi had not posted since her surgery as she was likely recovering and healing. Now, she has taken to Instagram to personally give an update as to what is going on and how the surgery went. They ended up removing four tumors but she noted the fight is not over.
Fortunately, that part of it all is over and done with but there is so much more to go. She previously said that she would have to get radiation for the others later on. Finally, Teddi Mellencamp included an X-ray of her brain and where the tumors were. She also thanked everyone for their continued support during this time as it has not been easy. However, all of the “love and prayers” have helped her remain “strong.”
