[quote]Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie has undergone a double mastectomy to reduce her chances of getting breast cancer.
The 37-year-old mother of six has explained her reasons for having the surgery in the New York Times.
She said her doctors estimated she had an 87% risk of breast cancer and a 50% risk of ovarian cancer. "I decided to be proactive and to minimise the risk as much I could," she wrote.
She said the process began in February and was completed by the end of April.[/quote]
Takes a lot of balls to do something like this, especially when a lot of people still only know about you because of your looks. Can't help but admire her tbh, she turned into a great actress and a dedicated humanitarian.
And like it says in the article, if you were booked on a flight that you were informed had an 87% risk of crashing, would you take it?
