"I wanted to give an update on my latest chapter as someone experiencing [and] navigating stage IV breast cancer. The thing that people don’t realize with stage IV is I will be on medication for the rest of life," Thurston, 34, said on Instagram on Friday, September 19. "It’s kind of like a maintenance plan, which is great but also can be scary."

"The bigger test on if this is working still, is next month i will get rescanned to see how much the tumor has shrunk," she continued. Thurston is hoping that the treatment will have worked enough that she can undergo a double mastectomy before the end of the year.
Thurston was diagnosed with breast cancer in February 2025 after finding a lump in her breast.
After meeting with oncologists, Thurston learned that the lump was indeed cancerous. After undergoing additional tests, doctors found that the cancer had metastasized to her liver, which meant she had Stage IV.
