Pamela Anderson has always been open with the fact that she is afflicted with Hepatitis C — an infectious disease that affects the liver — ever since she publicly revealed her diagnosis back in 2002. However, back in August, Anderson revealed that she was taking a brand new FDA-approved drug regimen that could possibly eradicate the virus and essentially cure her of the disease. At the time, Anderson told People:
I’m very fortunate that I’ve had Hep C for about 16 years. Sixteen years ago, that was [presented to me] as a death sentence. I think it really worked on my self-esteem. Even though I may have looked confident on the outside, I think it really was a dark cloud that lingered over me.
And now, just a few short months later, Anderson has opened up on Instagram that the drug worked and she has been cured of Hepatitis C, also offering some words of hope to others out there who suffer from the disease and have not yet had access to the cure.
But of course, considering this is Pam Anderson we’re talking about here, it wouldn’t really be news unless she accompanied it with a partially nude picture of herself on Instagram.

We wish our sincerest congratulations to Anderson for finding a cure. Here’s to many more years of her being a stone-cold fox, disease-free.
