Shannen Doherty: Mum gives me courage amid cancer fight.



Shannen Doherty has told how her mum inspires her in her battle with breast cancer.

The former Beverly Hills 90210 star posted a message on Instagram praising the courageous way her mother, Rosa, has coped with the death of her husband, Shannen’s dad Tom.

The 45-year-old – who was honoured with the American Cancer Society’s Courage Award in Los Angeles at the weekend – said her mum was one of the people who gave her strength.

She shared a picture of the pair on Instagram and wrote: “Yesterday marked the 6 year anniversary of my fathers death.

“Ironically, I accepted a courage award last night as well. But my courage comes from all sorts of things and people.

“Like this lady…. @themamarosa she lost her husband and best friend after over 40 years of being together every second and I’ve watched her get back up and face life with such courage.”
