Shannen Doherty is praising the doctors who are helping her in her cancer battle as she undergoes new treatment.
Doherty, 52, shared a positive health update on her stage 4 breast cancer diagnosis, which she called a "miracle."
"After four treatments, we didn't really see a difference and everybody wanted me to switch, and I just was like, 'We're going to keep going with this and see,'" Doherty revealed on her "Let’s Be Clear" podcast.

"After the sixth, seventh treatment we really saw it breaking down the blood-brain barrier. Do I call that a miracle? Yeah. For me, that happens to be a miracle right now. That I sort of rolled the dice and said, 'Let's keep going.'"
The "Charmed" actress had her own radiation oncologist, Dr. Amin Mirhadi, join her podcast to explain the current status of her turbulent cancer journey.
"Breaking down that blood-brain barrier is actually a miracle of that drug, a miracle of maybe God intervening and saying, ‘I’m gonna give her a break,'" she added. "Sometimes you’re looking for miracles in all the wrong places, and they’re right in front of your face."
The blood-brain barrier is a selective semi-permeable membrane between the blood and the interstitium of the brain, allowing cerebral blood vessels to regulate molecule and ion movement between the blood and the brain, according to the National Institutes of Health.
