“What a difference 4 months makes,” she lamented in the caption.

“Sometimes I am so focused on ‘being strong’ that I forget I am allowed to be sad, cry it out, and feel very alone,” she continued.

“I love my kids, friends, and family so much and am forever grateful to them but dang today is one of those days.”

Mellencamp then urged those who are also counting down until “bedtime” so they “can start over tomorrow” to drop a red heart emoji in her comments section, adding, “We are not alone.”

The “Two Ts in a Pod” co-host also asked for show and movie recommendations she can watch at home.

She concluded her post with the hashtag “#overyoucancer.”

Mellencamp — the daughter of famed musician John Mellencamp, who is already planning for her burial in their family mausoleum in Indiana — was diagnosed with stage 2 melanoma in October 2022.
