Christina Applegate Fighting Breast Cancer

Christina ApplegateWhen it rains it pours. Earlier this year Christina Applegate's 26-year-old boyfriend was found dead -- and now the actress has been diagnosed with breast cancer.

Her publicist released this statement: "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. Christina is following the recommended treatment of her doctors and will have a full recovery."

4. Dear Cristina:
Be strong sweet actress. I love all of your work, you are decent. My Aunt Ann survived breast cancer, and so shall you. And I am sad for the loss of your Love too. Be strong Girl. I never heard anything bad about you. You are a very talented actress. You'll be ok. Cancer has no boundries, no limitations on who gets it either. Talk to women who have it and or survived weather they be famous or not. I just hope it has not gotten into your lymphatic system. Wow, this is terrible. Sending a prayer for you.

9. It's never a good time for news like this but this must be especially hard for her. Smart girl to get tested at an early age. Early diagnosis is the best way to fight this type of cancer. Hopefully she's got a good support system to hold her up emotionally because physially she can easily beat this thing!
