\n\t\t<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\t\t\tTeddi Mellencamp got real about wearing a wig amid her cancer diagnosis. Mellencamp, 43, opened up about rocking her shaved head via Instagram on Thursday, March 13. She posted a side-by-side pic of her brunette buzzcut and her platinum blonde wig \u2014 effortlessly slaying in both. In both looks, Mellencamp donned a full beat, including [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
The reality TV star then used the social media platform to encourage fans to stay vigilant with their own health checks. \u201cPlease go get your yearly checks,\u201d Mellencamp urged in the post. \u201cIt\u2019s melanoma awareness month. No better time than now to book and remind a friend or loved one.\u201d<\/p>\n
The daughter of singer-songwriter John Mellencamp<\/strong> recently spoke to<\/a> Us Weekly<\/em> about how she\u2019s coping amid her ongoing cancer journey. After learning in March that four additional<\/a> small tumors were growing on her brain, Mellencamp said that she\u2019s committed to finding a balanced new normal. \u201cI\u2019m listening to my body, but also staying active and doing things that I love because when I do too much laying [around], I get pretty sad,\u201d she told Us<\/em> in a cover story published on April 2. \u201cOn the days I\u2019m feeling low, I can get really emotional, and if I\u2019m open with the people in my life, then I have an easier time resting. When I try to pretend I\u2019m OK and resting, it\u2019s hard for me.\u201d<\/p>\nMellencamp, who shares two daughters, Slate, 12, and Dove, 5, and a son, Cruz, 10, with estranged husband Edwin Arroyave<\/strong>, embraced her brain surgery scars<\/a> while walking the red carpet just last week.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThank You!<\/h3>\n
