A sweet display of love, kindness and support from fans brought actress Shannen Doherty to tears during a recent reunion with her Beverly Hills, 90210 castmates.

Cancer, no matter the fame or amount of money someone has, is always a scary and frightening diagnosis. Receiving that forbidden and alarming cancer diagnosis from a medical professional will immediately and forever change someone’s life. From that point forward, that individual and that person’s family are in a fight for survival.

“Thank you so much,” Shannen said. “You guys know how much I love crying constantly. And I do, it seems. So, thank you.”

The standing ovation came after Shannen openly discussed her cancer battle.

“I have a fight for my life that I deal with every day,” she said. “I think I am really great.”

Back in June, Shannen announced on Instagram that her cancer had spread to her brain. She had undergone surgery in January to remove a tumor. The post shows Shannen in a hospital bed before going into surgery. In the caption, she wrote how the video showed that she was “clearly trying to be brave,” adding that she is actually “petrified.”

"Our life doesn't end the minute we get that diagnosis," Shannen said."We still have some living to do."

Shannen has been open and honest about her cancer battle. She regularly posts updates on her Instagram page, detailing her fight against cancer. 

Shannen and her family would likely appreciate all the prayers they can get as they continue to fight against that awful, horrible disease.
