Emmy Award Winner Christina Applegate Reveals Multiple Sclerosis Diagnosis: It's Been A Tough Road
Emmy Award winner Christina Applegate says she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) a few months ago. "Hi friends. A few months ago I was diagnosed with MS," the 49-year-old actor said in a tweet on Tuesday, August 9.
Multiple sclerosis is a potentially disabling disease of the brain and spinal cord. Calling it a "strange journey", Applegate said she is grateful to the people, who also have this condition, for their support.
"But I have been so supported by people that I know who also have this condition. It's been a tough road. But as we all know, the road keeps going. Unless some a**hole blocks it," she added.
