    Teddi Mellencamp cried tears of joy after learning that her latest skin check-up will not be biopsied

    The 43-year-old reality star - who has Bella, 15, from a previous relationship and Slate, 12, Cruz, 10, and Dove, four, with husband Edwin Arroyave - was diagnosed with stage 2 melanoma in 2022 and has subsequently undergone 17 separate surgeries - but was left emotional on Wednesday (16.12.24) when she had been for her latest check-up and learned that it would not be tested in a laboratory for cancer


    Speaking in a video posted to Instagram, she said: "I just got done having a little cry, but it's a good one. It's the first time, and over two years, I've gone in for my three-month check and not had to have a biopsy because I have another cancer spot.

    "Oh my gosh, such a good feeling."

    Teddi will go for another check-up in March.

    The 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' star used the caption of her post to remind her followers that they should always make sure that they are on top of their appointments for such health concerns.

    She wrote: "This should be a reminder to all of you guys, please, please, book your skin checks, book your mammograms, book your OBGYN appointments, book your eye doctor appointments."

    Earlier this year, the wellness coach admitted that she had been unable to obtain life insurance and worried about the future.

    She told E! News: "[The hardest part has been] the mental toll it takes. When things are so out of your control, and you can't plan for it, sometimes you just have to accept what's happening and try to find peace in that...

    "You have very dark moments where you think, 'What if I don't make it? What does that mean for my children? What does that mean for my husband? What does that mean for my business?'

    "You go through all those emotions.

    "I have big highs and lows depending on what's going on with my surgeries and whatnot.

    "And then also having those days where I say, 'I'm just going to let myself crash today. I have these three hours to myself, I'm going to let myself have a little cry, feel these emotions.' Then it's easier to process than when you pretend that everything's perfect all the time."
