“It’s been 10 months since my brain surgery,” Teddi wrote on Instagram alongside a picture of John with her kids, “and I am so grateful to @johnmellencamp for continuously being there for me and my family the entire time.”
She concluded, “Love you so much, Cougs. Thank you for everything”
Since then, Teddi has not provided any major updates on her cancer battle, but she did share reflections about her year in a New Year’s Eve post, which encouraged her followers to “get those skin checks.”
“2025 was not my year. Near-death has that effect on you,” she wrote on Instagram. “But as I close it out, I’m trying my best to be grateful for every moment that I’ve been blessed to have been given since.”
“I’m not sure what 2026 will hold, but I know that I will never stop sharing with you the good, the bad, and the ugly,” Teddi added. “Being open and vulnerable helps me cope; and hopefully helps even one of you know you’re not alone in what life has you facing.”
Read on to look back at Teddi through the years, including her most precious family photos.
