Shannen Sad Breaking news

Shannen Doherty, the actress, has been open about her cancer diagnosis and treatment, but she has now revealed some tragic news. “January 5th, my ct scan showed Mets in my brain,” she announced on Instagram.

Her brain cancer is now being treated with radiation therapy. She had her first radiation treatment on January 12th. “My fear is obvious,” she admitted. “My life was quite hectic because I suffer from severe claustrophobia.”

Despite her ordeal, Doherty expressed her gratitude to her doctors in a letter, writing, “I am fortunate as I have fantastic doctors like Dr. Amin Mirahdi and the amazing technologists at Cedar Sinai.”

“But this is what cancer may look like—that worry, that turbulence, that timing.” Along with the message, she included a video of herself receiving radiation, in which she made no attempt to hide her terror.

Doherty was first diagnosed with cancer in 2015. Her diagnosis was due to metastatic breast cancer. After receiving radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and a single mastectomy, Doherty was declared cancer-free in 2017.

Kevin Smith wrote, “I’m rooting for you, my irreplaceable friend.” “You’ve always been a fearless fighter, so it’s understandable that you get scared now and then.” Allow that unshakeable Doherty spirit to reign once more after those times have passed.”

“This is a lot,” Selma Blair wrote. “Once again, there’s a lot to deal with here. And I hope that all the knowledge of intellectual peace will come to you in your moments of fear. to know you’re in good hands. “I love you, love you, love you.”
