Guliana

She announced on the Today show this morning she is going to have a double masectomy. The lumpectomy didn't get all the cancer, and this way she has 1% chance of it coming back. I feel so bad for her, they will be such great parents they really deserve a baby of their own!!

I didn't get to see the whole segment, anyone know if it came up that the fertility drugs possibly could have caused the breast cancer?

Re: Guliana

  • I didn't see the segment on the Today show, just read the news online. I feel just awful for her. I do think she's being very brave about the whole thing and it's inspiring that she's so open about it. I hope it all works out.

  • I saw the segment on Today and she really looked so good and confident in her decision.  She and Bill are so good together, at least what we see.  Do I know too much celebrity crap when one of my first thoughts was "She should talk to Christina Applegate."

  • The current thinking is fertility drugs won't "cause it", but if you have estrogen dependent BC, it can accelerate its growth.

    That's one of the first questions they ask when diagnosed.......were you on BC or fertility drugs.

     My sister did the same thing. 

  • So sad...I couldn't believe when I turned on E! News on Friday and she was still working.  I thought for sure she would be taking time off.

  • It's very rare that I get mad enough to say that I want to beat the s out of someone, but I did when I got on People magazine and saw one of the comments, something like "It's ok to adopt.  Lay off the IVF.  Maybe God is trying to tell you something."

    Yeah, it's so easy to 'just adopt.'  Adoption's not a cure for infertility, worthless scumbag.  And the fake moralizing and mentioning of God is barf worthy, esp. since there are so many things in our world that are "unnatural" if you really want to split hairs about it.

  • I feel so bad for her. My sister had to have a double mastectomy, and for months she felt like anyone she ever met was secretly looking at her chest area.

    I can't imagine how it must feel to be her, in the public eye, knowing everyone has an eye on what your chest looks like.
