Christina Applegate Beats Breast Cancer After Double Mastectomy

Christina Applegate is officially free of cancer, but only after undergoing a double mastectomy to remove both breasts to combat the disease.

As previously reported, Applegate was battling breast cancer, but doctors were able to catch it early.

She revealed the good news during an interview with “Good Morning America” tape on Monday (August 18).

“I’m clear,” she said. “Absolutely 100 percent clear and clean. It did not spread. They got everything out, so I’m definitely not going to die from breast cancer.”

Despite the relieving news of beating cancer, the removal of her breasts is still hard, she admitted.

“Sometimes, you know, I cry,” Applegate said. “And sometimes I scream. And I get really angry. And I get really upset, you know, into wallowing in self-pity sometimes. And I think it’s all part of the healing.”

Good luck to your Christina from the Fn’ Famous staff. We’re glad you’re better.

    I feel very sorry for her, but am happy she survived.
