Living with cancer, Shannen Doherty is embracing each day as it comes. In her most recent social media video, the actress and her mother, Rosa, can be seen dancing together as Bowie, the actress’ German shepherd, can be seen in the background.

After experiencing “strange” back sensations after working out, Doherty quickly discovered that her cancer had come back.

She was given a stage four cancer diagnosis this time because the illness had progressed to her spine.

She told Elle magazine: “I’ve got a lot of life in me,” despite the fact that her prognosis was limited in time.

Doherty shared the following photo on Instagram to demonstrate that she is appreciating each moment for what it is: “Today was my cheat meal after 21 days on a reset diet.

“I dove into fries, bread, and wine after cutting out all carbohydrates, sweets, and unhealthy foods. Also, dessert.

“Had a great cheat meal… I simply want to be the best version of myself right now. I’m not sure what that is, but I do know that the first step is healthy eating.

I’ll resume my clean eating tomorrow, but for today, I’ll have one more dessert.

At the time of her diagnosis, the Charmed actress, who portrayed Prue from 1998 to 2006, hadn’t “processed” her stage 4 breast cancer.

She admitted to TV reporter Amy Robach for ABC News that “it’s a tough pill to chew in many respects.”

Since the tumor has gone past its original site—in Doherty’s instance, the breast—it is also known as advanced cancer.

The prognosis for stage four breast cancer was highlighted by Cancer Research UK.

According to the charity, “around 25 out of 100 women (about 25%) will survive their disease for five years or more after they are diagnosed.”

“At this time, there is no known cure for cancer, but treatment may keep it under control for a while.”

Hormone therapy, chemotherapy, medications that target specific organs, radiotherapy, surgery, and bone-strengthening procedures are all included in treatment.

What purpose does treatment serve?
Cancer Research UK’s response was: “Treatments may improve your health and help with symptom reduction.

However, they can also have short-term adverse effects that make you feel sick.

Breast cancer signs include:

breast or armpit thickening or a new lump
A change in your breast’s size, shape, or sensation
Breast skin changes such dimpling, puckering, rashes, or skin redness
Non-pregnant or non-breastfeeding lady with nipple fluid leakage
alterations in the nipple’s location.
According to the NHS, further symptoms of cancer include back or stomach pain, fatigue, and unexplained weight loss.
