Christina Applegate gives birth to baby girl
Congratulations to Christina Applegate, who has just given birth to her first child, a daughter, Sadie Grace. In 2008, the actress was diagnosed with breast cancer and made the decision to go for a bilateral mastectomy when a test for the BRCA gene came back positive.
Initially after her breast biopsy results, she had been told she’d need six weeks of radiation instead of chemotherapy, as her cancer had not spread to the lymph nodes. Christina was given two options…go forward with the radiation treatments and continue testing for the rest of her life or have both breasts removed. She later underwent reconstructive surgery.
Congratulations to her. The fact that she didn’t have chemotherapy will have meant that her ability to conceive was left unimpaired – not all of us have been this lucky sadly
