These are your wishes! Shannen Doherty (52) has been struggling with serious health problems for many years. After she was diagnosed with cancer in 2015 and finally beat it, it returned around five years later. Since then, the Charmed star has been sharing his difficult journey with fans online. Now the actress is speaking out about her passing – Shannen wants to be surrounded by people who love her at her funeral!
She reveals this in her “Let’s Be Clear” podcast. “I want my funeral to be a celebration of love. And I don’t want people to cry!” she reveals, revealing a particularly great fear: “I don’t want anyone to secretly say, ‘Thank God ‘That snake is dead now.’ These are things I don’t want!” Shannen has difficulty dealing with funerals herself, as TV fame noticed, for example, with the death of her father.
Despite her serious illness, the 52-year-old remains positive and recently showed this in her podcast. “There will be many more options that will allow for another five years. In these five years there will be completely different options and ultimately this disease will be curable!”, the actress explained her hope that cancer research will develop further so that it can have a longer one could lead life.
