Actress Shannen Doherty, known for her role in “Lovely,” candidly shared her ongoing battle with stage 4 breast cancer, taking to Instagram to reveal her recent surgery for a brain tumor. The 52-year-old expressed her fear before the procedure and later disclosed the diagnosis of brain metastases following a CT scan.
Doherty documented her radiation treatment, highlighting the emotional toll and claustrophobia she experienced. Having faced cancer since 2015, with a remission announcement in 2017 followed by its return, Doherty consistently updates her fans on her health journey.
Despite concerns about potential negative outcomes, leaving loved ones, and self-image post-operation, she remains committed to raising awareness and encouraging preventive measures like mammograms and regular checkups. Her resilience and openness aim to educate and support others facing similar challenges.
