Mackenzie McKee’s Sick Mom Angie Douthit Shares Brave New Photo: ‘It’s Only Cancer’

Mackenzie McKee may have a lot to celebrate given her return to the MTV franchise that launched her career, but the new Teen Mom OG face has been dealing with a lot of hardship. Mackenzie’s mother, Angie Douthit, has been battling her stage 4 cancer diagnosis, with Mackenzie doing everything in her power to support her mom as the illness progresses.

Angie took to her Instagram account yesterday with a new photo showing how she’s doing. Angie’s photo showed her engaging in some physical activity as she tended to greenery taking over a wooden fence.

She had been photographed with the brave smile that’s somewhat of a permanent deal. Angie is known for being a fierce fighter and maintaining a positive approach despite a disease that has now spread to many of her organs. Fans would likely argue that Angie was looking on the thin side, with her slender frame on show via a neon tank top and shorts.

Of course, Angie’s hair loss as a result of her cancer treatments was visible, with Angie rocking buzz-shaved hair.

A lengthy caption Angie quoted from the Bible and closed that thought with hashtags. One mentioned Angie’s fighting attitude, while another took a joking stab at the deadly illness.

“It’s only cancer,” Angie wrote.

Fan comments poured in. While some mentioned their own cancer battle experiences – either personal or family oriented – most seemed to send Angie support. Many prayers were sent, with fans reminding Angie that she is being kept in their thoughts.

As The Hollywood Gossip reported earlier this year, Angie took to social media to share that her cancer had been progressing at a worrying rate.

“Brad and I received the results from my scans. It’s not what we had hoped for,” she wrote.

Further details proved deeply saddening.

“I wish I could say that I’m in remission. Or that the cancer has vanished. But instead this is what we were told. Basically, the cancer has gone wild have new tumors in my brain. And the old ones are growing. The tumors in both my lungs are progressing and growing again. I have three tumors in my liver. It’s in my lymph nodes. And low and behold, it’s in my bones. My breast bone and both of my femurs.”

Fans are likely there for Angie, across the board of her 54,000 Instagram followers. Those wishing to see more of Angie should follow her Instagram or they can subscribe to Mackenzie’s account.
