Shannen Doherty reveals stage 4 cancer has spread to her brain
Shannen Doherty, star of “90210″ and “Charmed,” has shared a health update regarding her yearslong battle with breast cancer — just weeks after announcing her divorce from her husband of 11 years.
The 52-year-old actress revealed on Instagram Tuesday that her stage 4 cancer has spread to her brain.
“On January 5th, my CT scan showed [metastasis] in my brain,” she captioned a video of her crying while placed under a radiation machine. “January 12, the first round of radiation took place.”
“My fear is obvious,” Doherty continued. “I am extremely claustrophobic and there was a lot going on in my life [at the time the video was taken]. I am fortunate as I have great doctors ... But that fear…. The turmoil….. The timing of it all…. This is what cancer can look like.”
