christina%20appelgate.jpgI’m not much of a fan of Christina Applegate, but I was mighty shocked to hear that she recently underwent a double mastectomy to deal with her breast cancer. Apparently she only had cancer in one breast, but because of a family history of breast cancer and genetic testing that showed she carried the cancer gene, she decided to remove both breasts. I admire that she is talking about this to the world, especially seeing as she’s in such a looks oriented profession. I hope she recovers beautifully.
