E! host Giuliana Rancic appeared on the TODAY show and shared the news of her recent diagnosis of breast cancer at age 36. During an interview with TODAY's Ann Curry Monday about her efforts to have a baby, Rancic revealed that her cancer was discovered through a mammogram ordered up by her fertility specialist. Rancic, who has no family history of breast cancer, said she was dragged "kicking and screaming" to the breast screening after the specialist insisted on the mammogram before he would start a third cycle of in vitro fertilization.

The news has generated a lot of emotional support for the E! host.  The STYLE Network has released the following statement regarding Rancic: "We are sending our thoughts, love and support to Giuliana, Bill and their families during this difficult time. Giuliana has always shown great strength and courage in sharing her challenges with health issues facing so many women. We are hopeful that with the early detection she will have a complete recovery and that her personal journey will continue to be an inspiration and education for women everywhere."
