re: Shannen Doherty says her cancer has spread to her bones: ‘I don’t want to die’

We get so used to cancer being curable, but every so often a young or middle-aged person dies from it and it’s a wake-up call that you can’t take a long life for granted. Lost a girl i went to school with, 40-ish, a few years ago. I just took for granted that she would beat it.
