Shannen Doherty confirms cancer has metastasized to her brain and expects the worst

the star of Beverly Hills 90210 Shannen Doherty shared on her social media that her cancer has metastasized to her brain, which has intensified her fear of dying.

Since 2015, the American actress has faced a tough battle against cancer when she was diagnosed with the disease for the first time. At that time, she mentioned that she cheered up a bit because a friend of hers gave her some very funny pajamas, because she looked ridiculous in them and that made her laugh.

In 2015 I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I had a mastectomy and did chemo and radiation. I had a lot of nosebleeds from the chemo. I’m not sure if any of you experienced this. I was also beyond tired. I cheered myself up by putting on the funny pajamas my friend Kristy gave me. She looked ridiculous and, in that ridiculousness, I was able to laugh at myself.

Since then, the actress charmed decided to share with people his personal journey with the disease. In 2017, she reported that the cancer was gone, but sadly, in 2020, the disease returned with a vengeance and stage four. That same year, she gave an interview for the program Good Morning America, where he explained the complicated moment he was going through.

On the other hand, while she continued to struggle with the disease, last April, the producer also reported that she had filed for divorce from her husband, Kurt Iswarienko, which most likely affected her state of mind even more.

In the most recent update on her current state of health, this June 7, the actress of Bethany reported that the outlook does not seem to be encouraging, since the cancer has invaded his brain. In addition, she added a video in the publication where he can be seen in the hospital while tearfully receiving the first round of radiation, which she took advantage of to thank the wonderful medical team at Cedar Sinai for all their support.

On January 5th, my CT scan showed metastases in my brain… January 12th, the first round of radiation took place. My fear is obvious. I am extremely claustrophobic and a lot has happened in my life. I am lucky because I have great doctors like Dr. Amin Mirahdi and the incredible technicians at Cedar Sinai. But that fear… the turmoil… the timing of it all… This is what cancer can be like

In one of her posts, the charismatic actress mentioned that she hopes that by sharing her story with cancer, we will all be more aware, getting regular checkups to rule out any possible problems.
