News summary

Katie Thurston, the former Bachelorette, has been openly sharing updates about her ongoing battle with stage 4 breast cancer, diagnosed in February. Recently, she revealed emotional struggles as she faces medication side effects harming her liver, leading to a lowered dose and postponement of her planned double mastectomy. Despite initially hoping for smooth progress by the end of the year, Thurston shared tearfully that maintaining positivity is difficult amid these setbacks.
