Angelina Jolie can't wait to turn 50 so that she can be at easy as she will have less chance of getting cancer by then. According to Angelina her mother and grandmother died in their 40s after they were diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Angelina has had her ovarian tubes reduced to lower the risk but she just can't wait to hit 50 to know that she has made it.
"I feel grounded as a woman. Both of the women in my family, my mother and my grandmother started dying in their 40s. I’m 40. I can’t wait to hit 50 and know I made it." She said.
She also explained why she went public with the procedure
“It really connected me to other women. I wish my mom had been able to make those choices." The procedures themselves were, she says, “brutal. It’s hard. "They are not easy surgeries. The ovaries are an easy surgery, but the hormone changes"—she laughs, nods her head—"interesting. We did joke that I had my Monday edit. Tuesday surgery. Wednesday go into menopause. Thursday come back to edit, a little funky with my steps."
