Christina Applegate Diagnosed With Breast Cancer
Posted On: August 3, 2008
Oddly just a few weeks after announcing that she would participate in the September 8 Stand Up To Cancer telethon, Christina Applegate has been diagnosed with the deadly disease.
“Christina Applegate was diagnosed with an early form of breast cancer. Benefiting from early detection through a doctor ordered MRI, the cancer is not life threatening.”
The rep added: “Christina is following the recommended treatment of her doctors and will have a full recovery. No further statement will be issued at this time.”
The Stand Up to Cancer telethon will simultaneously broadcast on CBS, NBC, and ABC on September 8 and will feature major A-listers Merly Streep, Sally Field, Jennifer Aniston, Scarlett Johansson and Charlize Theron.
