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."

38. Anyone who is posting negative or snarky comments about this is not human. Christina is a wake up call to Gen X women to show they need to get an exam now! They are not 20 something anymore and have to deal with normal human aging.
