Not the news we like to hear.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus announced today that she's been diagnosed with breast cancer, and she took the opportunity to shed light on the importance of health care for all. Apparently, the Veep star found out just one day after her historic Emmys win.

"1 in 8 women get breast cancer. Today, I'm the one. The good news is that I have the most glorious group of supportive and caring family and friends, and fantastic insurance through my union. The bad news is that not all women are so lucky, so let's fight all cancers and make universal health care a reality," she wrote in a note on Instagram.

The actress and husband Brad Hall are parents to sons Henry, 25, and Charlie, 20. She gave no other details about her treatment or prognosis, so we're praying for her.

If anyone can beat this, it's Elaine!

Just when you thought...
