In new court documents, Shannen Doherty revealed additional details about her terminal cancer diagnosis amidst her divorce from Kurt Iswarienko. The “Charmed” star, who was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015 and then diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer in 2019 which had metastasized to her bones and her brain, said she's undergone a host of treatments, in a June 21, 2024 statement given to the court.
Do I call that a miracle? For me, that happens to be a miracle right now. That like I sort of rolled the dice and said let’s keep going,” the actor continued. Doherty revealed in 2023 that her cancer had spread to her brain and bones. Usually, even very strong chemotherapy isn’t able to pass the blood-brain barrier and target the tumors within the brain, according to Northwestern Medicine.
