Strictly Come Dancing star Amy Dowden has said the "finish line is in sight" as she shared a hopeful and positive snap of her going through chemotherapy treatment with her followers.
The 33 year old professional dancer has been going through months of gruelling hospital visits, despite doing all she can to stay involved with the latest series of the BBC competition show and even turning up to the live shows.
After one of her most heartbreaking milestones yet, which saw the Welsh star making the decision to shave off her long blonde locks in a bid to take control of the hair loss, Amy is now seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.
Along with a photo of her and a chemo pal smiling from their hospital beds, where Amy held up seven fingers to indicate which round she's about to embark on, the dancer shared an update on her treatment.
"Yayyyyy my blood platelets were all good to go for chemo 7 and it was lovely @kiimmbo.6 7th too (a fellow pink sister on a similar journey) for us both next session we should be ringing that chemo bell and I simply cannot wait!" the star began her caption.
"So good to chat again today all things chemo and breast cancer.
"The finish line is in sight for us lovely," the star went on. "Thanks as always to the incredible Sheldon Unit who always go above and beyond to make us comfortable and happy as can be! Right I’m on the sofa resting up.
"Thanks all for crossing everything and for all your well wishes! #welshlove amy xxx #nhs #chemo #mycancerjourney #breastcancerawarenessmonth #breastcanceryoung #nearlythere," the star added.
Wearing a a grey hair wrap and a plain hoodie, the star cuddled up under a matching throw blanket to keep warm.
Fans flocked to the comments to share their encouragement for Amy, as one person wrote: "Go on gal !! Bring it home."
"Yayyyyyy!!!! So happy you got it. 1 more to go baby. So proud of you," another follower commented.
A third said: "Aw yay all our finger crossing worked! such fab news that you got chemo 7 today. Your almost there. The absolute proudest always. Lots and lots of love and hugs to my inspiration."
While a fourth praised: "Big hugs you brave lady keep going you are a huge inspiration to others."
It comes as Amy delighted Strictly fans when she appeared in the gallery with the rest of the show's pro dancers during Saturday night's live show (October 21).
Opting for a gorgeous bright pink halter neck dress and a stylish curly blonde wig, the star was all smiles as she grinned next to Gorka Marquez and Neil Jones.
