Lessons learned from Shannen Doherty

Kurt IswarienkoPin

In 2020 Doherty revealed that her cancer came back; she was diagnosed in 2015, after having been in remission for three years. She had previously undergone several treatments, including hormone therapy, surgery, chemotherapy and radiation.
At the time, Doherty hadn’t fully processed the news but continued to work, even appearing in the Beverly Hills, 90210 reboot, BH90210, to show people that “life doesn’t end the minute we get that diagnosis.”

Doherty shared that her oncologist told her that her next round of treatment would include a hormone therapy to halt the estrogen that was contributing to her cancer as well as a targeted drug that would help stabilize her metastatic condition. If those methods don’t work, he told her there would be other drug combinations to try.

Despite battling Stage IV metastatic breast cancer, Shannen Doherty doesn’t intend to go anywhere. The actress is optimistic that she’ll be around another decade, according to a recent interview with Elle magazine.

“I feel like I’m a very, very healthy human being,” Doherty said. “It’s hard to wrap up your affairs when you feel like you’re going to live another 10 to 15 years.”

“It’s like anybody with Stage IV faces this sort of thing, where others want to put you out to pasture,” “I’m not ready for pasture. I’ve got a lot of life in me.”

Doherty also expressed gratitude. “I try to treasure all the small moments that most people don’t really see or take for granted,” “The small things are magnified for me. We have this endless well within us, and it’s just about continuing to dig in that well for the strength to face adversity — and so that we can also see all the beauty.”
