Jenna Fischer, known for her role as Pam Beesly on "The Office, " recently shared a surprising story about her friend Christina Applegate's reaction to her breast cancer diagnosis. Fischer revealed that she was diagnosed with cancer last year and immediately told her husband, Lee Kirk. One of the first people she shared the news with was Applegate, her co-star from the movie "Hall Pass. "

Applegate's response was quite unexpected. When Fischer called her, Applegate answered the phone and asked, "Which one is it? " Fischer replied it was breast cancer, and Applegate responded with, "I effing knew it. " Fischer found this reaction amusing and said, "She’s salty. Salty language that one. I love her for it. " Applegate, who has been living with multiple sclerosis, is known for her straightforward and candid nature.

Fischer underwent various treatments, including surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation, and is now cancer-free. She documented her journey on social media, encouraging fans to get regular mammograms and discuss their breast cancer risk with their doctors. Fischer also thanked her "The Office" co-star Angela Kinsey and her husband for their support during her treatment.
