Real Housewives of Orange County alum Jeana Keough faces tongue cancer battle
Jeana Keough’s daughter shares a heartbreaking update on her mother’s cancer diagnosis
Former Real Housewives of Orange County star Jeana Keough is facing a major health challenge after being diagnosed with tongue cancer. Her daughter, Kara Keough Bosworth, revealed the news through a GoFundMe page organized to support her mother. What initially seemed like a minor tongue irritation caused by a tooth turned out to be squamous cell carcinoma following a biopsy.
Although the family hoped a single surgery would suffice, doctors discovered the cancer had spread to her lymph nodes during the procedure. Jeana is now in her fifth week of treatment, which includes chemotherapy, radiation, and immunotherapy. The GoFundMe campaign aims to help cover her medical expenses and care. Kara also praised her mother's incredible optimism on Instagram, highlighting her resilience in the face of uncertainty.
