"So grateful for all the care I received and continue to have. To my husband, family and friends who supported me unconditionally and to you guys! Thank you! I will still need a monthly injection for 5 years and regular check ups."

Amy wrote that her cancer treatment has left a different kind of impact on her body and that her recovery will take time. She mentioned that she is happy for the second chance she got for her life and her "life has changed forever." She continued:

"Cancer affects too many so I will continue to do all I can to raise awareness and make sure I get as many as I can to #checkthemselves. It's time to look ahead after what's been the toughest year, and one I certainly didn't expect!"

Dowden's friends and followers expressed their happiness in the comments section, with some of them calling it the "best news ever."
