jazzy_daveI feel blessed that i am in good health and hearty and it made me wonder how Shannen (Prue to Charmed devotees) is doing - this id from the latest Wiki update.
"In August, 2015, Shannen announced that she is battling breast cancer. She was first diagnosed in March 2015.[1] Nothing more was released about the battle until Wednesday 20 July, 2016, when Shannen — in a six-part Instagram post — showed the journey of shaving her head. Alyssa Milano reposted one of the posts with the caption "Shannen, we are all in your corner wishing you health and love! #cancersucks". Rose McGowan reposted one of the photos as well, asking her followers to send strength to Shannen.
In early August, 2016, Shannen noted that she had undergone a single mastectomy, however, the during the surgery, the doctor discovered that the cancer had spread to her lymph nodes with the possibility of further spreading. Doherty states that "They're just breasts. In the grand scheme of things, I would rather be alive and I would rather grow old with my husband." Shannen will undergo further chemotherapy and if needed, radiation. Shannen believes that living with one breast is manageable, but she fears for the future and a possible recurrence of the cancer. Doherty had an expander fitted in place of the removed breast."
