Peggy Lipton and Rashida Jones aren’t just mom and daughter – they’re actual coworkers. In 2002, Jones worked with her mom and her brother on a play called Pitching to the Star. It was a few months after the play that Lipton was diagnosed with cancer.

Once she received the diagnosis, Jones became a rock for Lipton. “Chemotherapy is brutal. The goal is pretty much to kill everything in your body without killing you,” Jones said. “I wished I could have gone through it for her; I wanted to take the burden off her. Then I figured out a way to help. I decided my job was to find joyful moments during what could have been a terrifying time for both of us.” Lipton managed to make a full recovery, in no small part, thanks to her daughter’s positive outlook.
