The Seinfeld star, 62, was diagnosed with stage II breast cancer in September 2017. In October 2018, she announced she was in remission after undergoing a double mastectomy and six rounds of chemotherapy.
The morning after winning an Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for her role as Selina Meyer in Veep — her sixth consecutive Emmy — in September 2017, she received a call from her doctor with the news. Louis-Dreyfus admitted she was also terrified. “You just simply don’t consider it for yourself, you know, that’s sort of the arrogance of human beings,” she said. “But of course, at some point, we’re all going to bite it.”The actress has started “living more mindfully” in the years since. “It's not like it's yakking at me all the time, but there's more laser focus,” she explained.
“Well, because the night before, I had won an Emmy. And so, I came downstairs and … the Emmy was there. It was, like, on the dining room table. I'm coming down to get coffee. My cell phone rings, and it's my doctor saying, 'Guess what, you have cancer,'' she told the audience, per People.
