Shannen Doherty Reveals She's in Remission Following Cancer Treatment

Shannen Doherty just shared some amazing news!

In a touching post, the 45-year-old Charmed actress revealed that she is in remission!

Shannen, who was diagnosed with breast cancer in March of 2015, completed her chemotherapy treatments back in February and has been waiting for this news.

“Moments. They happen. Today was and is a moment. What does remission mean? I heard that word and have no idea how to react. Good news? YES. Overwhelming. YES. Now more waiting,” she wrote.

Shannen added that she knows how important the next few years are and understands she still has a battle to bravely fight.

She added, “As every single one of my fellow cancer family knows, the next five years is crucial. Reoccurrences happen all the time. Many of you have shared that very story with me. So with a heart that is certainly lighter, I wait. In the meantime, decisions. Reconstruction which is several surgeries. Decision on taking a pill for the next five years that comes with its own set of problems and side effects. I am blessed, I know that. But for now…. remission. I’m going to just breathe. #cancerslayer”

We’re so glad to hear Shannen‘s incredible news!
