Your support makes all the difference.Julia Louis-Dreyfus has posted her first post-op picture with two words for cancer: "F*** you."
The Veep actress posted the image on Twitter she was very thankful for her surgery and ready to move forward.
“Hoorah! Great doctors, great results, feeling happy and ready to rock after surgery,” she wrote.
Louis-Dreyfus then quipped, "Hey cancer, ‘F–k you!’ Here’s my first post op photo.”
In September, the actress announced she was diagnosed with breast cancer and used her platform to spread awareness about the significance of health insurance.
She used her announcement to bring awareness to how many women get breast cancer.
"One in eight women get breast cancer," she wrote. "Today, I'm the one."
Soon after her reveal, she began chemotherapy, which she finished last month.
Due to her illness, the HBO show she stars in went on brief break.
The Emmy Award-winning actress is slated to return to filming Veep in August just in time for its 2019 season premiere.
