"I cry everyday. Crying is good because it makes me feel refreshed," said the actress.
The actress, who started noticing that something was wrong with her breasts in May, disclosed in October that the disease has spread to her lymph nodes.
Her fans flooded her Instagram page to encourage her, and there were messages of goodwill from across the world as they encouraged her to stay strong in the fight.
One of her fans wrote, "You're not alone." Anna has been receiving treatment for her disease and is said to have lost hair.
The former fashion model announced that she will not give up the fight for her life. Anna's father Tatsuo Umemiya, who was also in the acting industry, passed away in 2019 after a protracted cancer battle.
