Boy Meets World’s Danielle Fishel Gives Update on Her Cancer Journey
“The next stage is radiation, and the decision about whether I need to do whole breast radiation, or I need to do targeted radiation, or a combination of the two or if I’m going to do radiation at all,” she explained. “Those are topics that I have yet to decide, and I have to make them with the care of my doctors. I haven’t picked a radiation oncologist yet. I’m about ready to start those appointments.”
“Additionally,” the Girl Meets World alum said, “I will most likely be starting a hormone therapy, an estrogen blocker, because my cancer was estrogen-positive, so it was feeding off of estrogen.”
While Fishel is grateful she caught her cancer early, she emphasized that, no matter the stage, it’s still a difficult road.
“Being on hormone therapy, that’s a lifelong thing or at least until I’m all the way through menopause,” the Pod Meets World host noted. “When I first was diagnosed, I had a fellow cancer survivor reach out to me, and I was like, ‘Yeah, but thankfully mine is stage zero.’ And she wrote back and she said, ‘I just want you to know there is no easy cancer.’ And I thought about her saying that to me many times over the course of this treatment that I’ve been on so far.”
