Julia louis-dreyfus diagnosed with breast cancer

Julia Louis-Dreyfus, 56, has now completed her second chemotherapy treatment for breast cancer. She posted an update, with a comical photo, to Instagram on Friday. “We are NOT f-----g around

here. “I’ve got the eye of the tiger. The Fighter dancing through the fire cuz I am a champion and you’re going to hear me ROAR.” She was pictured wearing a black hoodie, sunglasses and a

fake mustache. The popular actor revealed her diagnosis in September. “1 in 8 women get breast cancer. Today, I’m the one,” she wrote on Twitter.  The actress went on to say: “The good news

is that I have the most glorious group of supportive and caring family and friends, and fantastic insurance through my union,” “The bad news is that not all women are so lucky, so let’s

fight all cancers and make universal health care a reality,” she wrote. The diagnosis came on the heels of a historic Emmy Award win. On Sept. 17, Louis-Dreyfus received her sixth straight

Emmy for best actress in a comedy series for _Veep_. With the win, Louis-Dreyfus became the performer with the most Emmys for the same role, surpassing Candice Bergen and Don Knotts, who

each earned five Emmys for their parts in _Murphy Brown_ and _The Andy Griffith Show_. In a statement, HBO said it would adjust the _Veep_ production schedule as needed, but that the

diagnosis has not affected the network’s decision to renew the political comedy for a final seventh season. “Our love and support go out to Julia and her family at this time,” HBO said. “We

have every confidence she will get through this with her usual tenacity and undaunted spirit, and look forward to her return to health and to HBO for the final season of _Veep.”_ In addition

to her six Emmy wins for her role as Selina Meyer, Louis-Dreyfus also nabbed Emmys previously for her supporting role as Elaine Benes in _Seinfeld_ and her leading role as Christine in _The

New Adventures of Old Christine._ Fellow actress Christina Applegate, who underwent a double mastectomy almost a decade ago after receiving a breast cancer diagnosis, responded to

Louis-Dreyfus by tweeting, “Mama, find me. Let’s talk if you want.”
