Shannen Doherty has decided to share her battle with breast cancer with the world.
The actress posted a photo of herself lying in a hospital bed after receiving chemotherapy. In the caption, she also shared a bit about how draining the treatment can be.
"Day after #chemoday isn't always so great. Sometimes one isn't able to dance, or eat or even to think about the next day. Sometimes it just feels like you aren't going to make it. That passes. Sometimes the next day or 2 days later or 6 but it passes and movement is possible. Hope is possible. Possibility is possible. To my cancer family and everyone suffering.... stay courageous. Stay strong. Stay positive. #wegotthis.#fightlikeagirl."
Since her diagnosis, Doherty has bravely let her followers into her fight to recover by sharing photos of her hanging out with friends Chelsea Handler and Sarah Michelle Gellar in an effort to keep her spirits up.
As we reported, Doherty's diagnosis was announced in August 2015, in the midst of a lawsuit against her manager who she accused of allowing her health insurance to lapse so she was unaware of the seriousness of her condition. At the time, Doherty was diagnosed as having “invasive breast cancer metastatic to at least one lymph node.”
