“I’m doing well,” Eggert told People. “I’m kind of in a gray area and I’ve finished my treatment, waiting for more imaging tests and hopefully maybe surgery.”
She continued: “And there’s a lot of waiting involved in this and it’s something that I didn’t really realize and that no one really talks about.”
“But the grey area is the hardest because you don’t know what’s going on and when I’m in treatment I feel like I’m doing something productive,” the artist added. “So I felt positive and I was like, well, I’m doing something positive. And now that it’s nothing, I’m like, well, wait a minute. We have to get this out in the open. So it’s frustrating.”
Amid her battle with cancer, the mother of two said she is keeping busy by working “with a shaman” and doing “a lot of guided imagery.”
“I’ve taken some of Jeremy’s (Jackson) classes. He teaches workshops on breathing,” she explained.
To stay positive, she tries to do “whatever” she can to “distract herself.”
As for how her daughters Dilyn, 25, and Keegan, 13, are handling her diagnosis, the actress said they have taken it “really well.”
“I mean, they kept me on my toes,” she said. “My 13-year-old didn’t give me any special treatment. They were always like, ‘Mom, give me that, come on here, let’s do that.'”

Eggert went on to thank her daughters for keeping her “going” and her life “bright.”
He noted that through his treatments, “he has been treated as if nothing is changing” and that the “days remain the same” as before his diagnosis.
Earlier this month, she told People that working as a producer on After Baywatch gave her a “purpose.”
“Having a young daughter and this project has been a great motivation for me to not just sit around thinking about my health and well-being. It’s giving me a purpose,” she said. “It keeps me motivated every day. I believe that the timing of life always has a reason. It’s been a great distraction and my daughters have kept me on my toes.”

The 52-year-old star accessorized her ensemble with a pair of glamorous statement earrings and a delicate gold necklace.
She rose to fame playing Roberta “Summer” Quinn across 44 episodes of Baywatch at the height of its popularity in the early 1990s.
The actress made the difficult decision to shave her hair in March and captured the moment she did it with the help of her daughter.
Eggert, who first revealed she had been diagnosed with breast cancer in December, said Inside edition who had just learned that doctors had detected more diseases as he underwent treatment.
She said she regrets not checking her breasts regularly and that the tissue from the breast implants she had placed at age 19 made it harder to detect any abnormalities in her chest.
The star admitted that after gaining about 25 pounds and experiencing pain in her left breast beginning in October, she underwent a mammogram and three biopsies, which resulted in a diagnosis of stage 2 cribriform carcinoma breast cancer.

At the event, she gave an update on her health and spoke about the “hardest” part of her treatment; seen last month
She said: ‘When I felt it, my heart sank and I thought, ‘Oh my God. No one could look after me, so I went to every breast centre. It’s horrible because every day and every minute that goes by, you know it’s growing.’
Just a month later, a mammogram finally confirmed her fears: Eggert had stage 2 breast cancer.
“My heart dropped, I lost my hearing, everything collapsed. It’s called invasive cribriform carcinoma. It’s very rare,” she explained.
“Self-examinations, I assure you, make me feel sorry for myself. It’s the only thing I should have been doing.”
The actress revealed that the tissue in her breast implants made self-examination difficult, adding: “If I didn’t have them and I had my smaller, natural breasts, I’m sure I would have felt it a lot sooner.”
