Jane Fonda announced that her cancer is now in remission. The\u00a0Grace and Frankie<\/em>\u00a0actress\u00a0shared the news on Instagram on Thursday. In September, Fonda revealed she was\u00a0diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Last week I was told by my oncologist that\u00a0my cancer is in remission<\/a>\u00a0and I can discontinue chemo,” Fonda wrote on Instagram alongside a photo of her at a climate rally in Washington, D.C. “I am feeling so blessed, so fortunate,” the 84-year-old actress continued. “I thank all of you who prayed and sent good thoughts my way. I am confident that it played a role in the good news.”<\/p>\n

Fonda then revealed that some of her treatments had been “rough” but that she recovered in time to go to D.C. to do “some lobbying” and speak at the Democracy Alliance about climate change.<\/p>\n

“I’m especially happy because while my first 4 chemo treatments were rather easy for me, only a few days of being tired, the last chemo session was rough and lasted 2 weeks, making it hard to accomplish much of anything,” Fonda shared.<\/p>\n

“The effects wore off just as I went to D.C. for the first live, in-person Fire Drill Fridays rally,” she said. Fire Drill Fridays are a demonstration to raise awareness about climate change that she leads weekly.<\/p>\n
