Christina Applegate Fighting Breast Cancer

This is just a reminder it doesn't matter how young you are .... Breast Cancer screenings are so important.
I had an Aunt that passed away from breast cancer when she was in her early 30's..... that was back in the 70's.... technology for early detection has come along way since then and if caught early enough breast cancer is very treatable. Organizations like the Susan G Komen foundation can help if you have any questions here is the web site http://cms.komen.org/komen/index.htm

To all the women (and men for that matter) effected with breast cancer our prayers go out to you and hope for a full recovery.

Here is the AP story about Applegate.


LOS ANGELES (Aug. 3) - Actress Christina Applegate, famed for playing ditzy daughter Kelly Bundy on TV comedy "Married ... With Children," is fighting breast cancer, but expected to make a full recovery, her spokeswoman said Saturday. Applegate, 36, was diagnosed with cancer during a regular MRI, spokeswoman Ame Van Iden said in an email.
"Christina is following the recommended treatment of her doctors and will have a full recovery," Van Iden said.
Applegate, whose mother battled both breast and cervical cancer, has been an advocate for breast cancer research.
She rose to fame in the 1980s on "Married ... With Children," won an Emmy for a guest role as Jennifer Aniston's sister on "Friends," and now plays an amnesiac in her own sitcom, "Samantha Who?"
Applegate's cancer diagnosis was reported earlier by the Hollywood gossip TV show Extra.
