"Boy Meets World" star Danielle Fishel is feeling blessed despite her recent cancer diagnosis ...
thanking fans for an outpouring of support. Danielle hopped on Instagram and shared a video message with her followers, expressing gratitude for the overwhelmingly positive response to her health update. As we reported .
.. Danielle announced Monday she was fighting breast cancer , though she caught the disease in stage zero during her annual mammogram.
Danielle says a big reason she's being open with her cancer fight is the hope her story will get women -- and men -- to get cancer screenings, just in case doctors find something ...
as they did in her case. The way Danielle sees it ..
. no one wants to hear bad news from the doc, but early detection is a much better alternative to finding out you have cancer much later in the game ..
. and she's stressing the importance of being proactive when it comes to personal health. Danielle plans to get surgery and is convinced she's going to win her fight against cancer .
.. and if you think she seems chill about the whole thing, get a load of her dog.
Sounds like Danielle's getting her message across too ...
some folks are in the replies saying she's the reason they're sucking it up and getting a cancer screening..
