In an article called `My medical choice` written by Angelina Jolie herself and published in the New York Times magazine, the top Hollywood star revealed shocking information to many fans.

Topless Angelina posed for a photo with a horse at 25 years old.

Angelina said the decision was made after the actress discovered she carried an defective copy of the BRCA1 gene, which puts her at risk of breast and ovarian cancer.

According to the famous actress, the breast tissue removal and breast reconstruction surgery took three months with many complex surgeries.

Two weeks later, Angie went into major surgery.

Nine weeks later, she underwent final breast reconstruction using implants.

Brad Pitt was always by his lover’s side during her treatment days.

Brad Pitt is always by his fiancee’s side every minute she is in the operating bed at the Pink Lotus Breast Center, Angelina said.

During that time, Angelina remained hidden from the public and carried out her social work.

Angelina appeared at the G8 Foreign Ministers Conference in London, England on April 11.

In the article, the 37-year-old actress, mother of 6 children, also said that her children often asked if their mother passed away from the same disease as their grandmother.

The actress said she decided not to keep this a personal secret in the hope that through her case, other women will be aware of getting tested to detect the disease early and have options for themselves.
