Olivia Munn Opens Up About Her "Terrifying" Breast Cancer Diagnosis | PEOPLE
/ people
I just want to point out that for the majority of women in America, this timeline is not their reality. Being seen by a specialist, getting an MRI (rather than a plain old mammo), getting the MRI results an HOUR later, getting an ultrasound the next day, biopsy the following day- this is a fantasy for most people in the US unfortunately. The diagnostic journey is months to years for many women. Not all healthcare is created equal.
this brought me to tears. not only is she so well spoken, she was so raw and real. wow, olivia, you're incredible
She was extremely fortunate to have great medical insurance and to get the tests done immediately. Ultrasound and MRI are very expensive unless you have outstanding medical coverage.
I was moved by this interview and her authenticity. Wishing her and others going through this strength and health.
She is incredibly strong. To go through this transformation and fight, on top of early motherhood, postpartum, and now induced menopause. Sending light and love her way. ❤
She's going to help a lot of other women by being so transparent, open and vulnerable with her story.
I’m in awe of this woman. Bravo for her strength, her partner’s support and the fight for her family.
This is such a beautifully honest and personal confession. I’ve always liked Olivia but I’ve never respected and admired her more.
I was holding my breath watching this video. That’s a lot to take at her age, as a new mom, a partner, an actress…I’m happy for what she’s achieved. Thanks for sharing.
Great OBGYN!!! I wish we all had access to really good doctors. Healthcare as an absolute nightmare in this country. Only the wealthy and privileged have access to the best doctors.
Wow she is so eloquent and carries herself in such an honest light. Truly has helped so many women!
How would they not catch it on a mammogram?? That’s terrifying for the rest of us women who don’t consider the alternate ways of checking if the mammogram is clean
I remember watching a UA-cam video of Malcolm learning to say “no!” You heard Olivia laughing in the background….Then, Malcolm broke out into laughter. She is a wonderful mom and wishing her a long life ahead.
Gotta give support to Olivia for braving the public and being so open.
Let's surround this brave woman with healing light and love. Also, can we just acknowledge John? What an incredible man and loving father. This is what a real man is. Love to you all.
She's a pillar of strength. Keep fighting Olivia. 🙏❤️🙏
I so admire her strength and courage to tell this personal tale with such clarity and compassion. I feel she embodies strength and is surrounded by love. I think she will help so many others.
Sorry to hear. Life will bring some bs to everybody at some point. Always be grateful for today and appreciative for the blessings you have today.
My heart goes out to this wonderful actress, sweet person, amazing woman. Her story, her truth, can help others! Only the best for her, John and their son in each today! 😊❤
Girl that’s a lot like a LOT, you’re so strong, it’s admirable. Enjoy life, I hope you can enjoy now, you deserve it.
