“She shared her story to help anyone she could,” John, who wed Olivia in July after three years together, continued. “According to the National Cancer Institute, in the week after Olivia shared the story of her breast cancer journey, there was a 4,000 percent increase in women visiting the breast cancer risk assessment. That was the first week.”

The former Saturday Night Live writer went on to share the couple’s biggest learnings from Olivia’s health battle, which put everything into perspective.

“We learned a lot from it,” John shared. “We learned she would need five surgeries. We learned there was a risk of lymphedema. We learned that if we had not caught it when we caught it, things could have been a lot worse.”

He also managed to inject the more serious parts of his dedication to his wife with a bit of his characteristic humor.

He added, “I also learned it’s not pronounced ‘masectomy,’ it’s pronounced ‘mastectomy.’ It has a T in it. It shouldn’t. It should be ‘masectomy.’ It’s ironic that the word itself has a part that should be removed, I think.”
