Angelina’s main reason for having a double mastectomy was because she had most her mother to breast cancer and she did not want her six children to lose her from breast cancer. After her mother died of breast cancer she decided to take a gene test to determine if she was at risk for breast cancer. She was. She justified saying her doctors estimated that she had an 87 percent risk of having breast cancer so she decided to be proactive and have the surgery. Angelina used her own personal story (anecdote) as evidence that she should have the double mastectomy.
I do not think Angelina used appropriate evidence to support her decision. The use of a story or testimonial is an inappropriate and insufficient source of evidence. However, I would agree
