Reality TV fans got to know McKenzie McKee and her family through her episode of MTV’s 16 and Pregnant and the short-lived spin-off Teen Mom 3, and now the former reality star has devastating news to share, her mother has brain cancer.
“She is the healthiest person I know. Eats healthier than me. Always organic. Doesn’t smoke, doesn’t drink, she is a school teacher so has no money. She runs marathons and works out two to three times a day. This does not run in our family,” McKee said of the shock of her mother, Angie Douthit’s diagnosis.
She added, “I am so sad. I can barely breathe. I can not lose her. She did ask that I blog her whole journey and make a documentary in case something does happen we will always have that. I know God will use her to speak to others.”

What we thought was bronchitis turned out to be 3 masses on her brain, 1 large imone in her. Lungs and multiple blood clots. We are in shock and devastated. I she has brain surgery tomorrow. I’m sick. I’m so sick and want to wake up.” She also tweeted things like, “Haven’t cried this hard in over ten years.”
