Actress Christina Applegate has been
diagnosed
with early stage breast cancer.
Samantha Who? star Christina Applegate has been diagnosed with an early form of breast cancer.
A spokesperson for the 36-year-old actress says in a statement, "Benefitting from early detection through a doctor-ordered MRI, the cancer is not life threatening. Christina is following the recommended treatment of her doctors and will have a full recovery."
Applegate's mother is a survivor of breast cancer, the most common form of the disease in women.
Our thoughts and prayers are with her. To find out more about early detection methods or to make a donation to the Susan G. Komen
