Over the past year, Jenna Fischer was battling stage I triple-positive breast cancer. Now, she says she is cancer free.
Jenna Fischer is highlighting Breast Cancer Awareness Month by sharing that she is now "cancer free" after she was diagnosed with the disease in October 2023.
To treat her cancer, she had a lumpectomy "to remove the tumor," radiation, infusions and chemotherapy, which she wrote caused her to lose her hair. "The Office" star posted a photo of herself sporting what she described as a "patchy pixie" haircut, writing that she wanted to showcase a photo of herself now "looking happy and healthy to go along with this news."
In May, CNN reported that women at average risk of breast cancer are advised to get a mammogram every other year starting at age 40 and until age 74, according to recommendations from the US Preventive Services Task Force."As anyone who has had a cancer diagnosis knows, your life changes immediately. It becomes all about doctor appointments, test results, treatments and recovering from treatments," she wrote. "It takes a village to fight cancer, and I have had an amazing village.
