Maura Tierney Drops Out Of Show Due To Cancer

maura-tierney-breast-cancerER's Maura Tierney, has been forced to drop out of her new TV seriesParenthood due to her horrifically receiving cancer. The show was originally delayed because of her "mysterious illness," but after having some tests done, a tumor was discovered in one of her breasts. The TV series was being pushed to the mid-season calendar to accommodate Tierney's medical treatments. But now since it unfortunately seems that her treatment is a little more extensive than previously thought, Tierney will have to quite the show. The studio is now reportedly trying to find another actress to fill Tierney's role. We wish Maura a speedy and healthy recovery and look forward to seeing her in another TV series when she gets better.
