Julia Louis-Dreyfus and the reason for her to talk about her cancer

Julia did not mince words when she spoke about her cancer diagnosis and management. She told Jimmy Kimmel:

“First and foremost we had stalled Veep (her HBO hit show) productions because of my situation, So a lot of people worked for me, so I knew I really couldn’t keep it private because I had to tell everybody what was going on.”

She also believed that when she goes public with the diagnosis, it would be an excellent opportunity to strike a conversation about health and health care. She also wanted the world to know that not having a health insurance is detrimental and that they should go ahead and have one for such eventualities.

Julia admitted that the moment she decided to talk about her disease in public, she also decided that she would do it with a touch of humor and not in a serious tone. She said:

“I was really pleased with the reaction because I think it was buoying to people who are battling cancer.”

Julia is back to her acting and had filmed for Veep recently. She said:

“I’m savoring every second of it.”
