Actress Christina Applegate shared her ongoing struggles with multiple sclerosis in a recent interview with The New York Times, revealing that she had gained some 40 pounds and could no longer walk without the use of a cane.
Applegate spoke with the NYT ahead of the release of the final season of her Netflix series “Dead to Me” — which she was filming when she was first diagnosed last November. Despite a five-month hiatus to allow for the “Married With Children” alum to begin treatment, she was able to complete the season.
“This is the first time anyone’s going to see me the way I am,” she said, sharing a bit of apprehension at the thought of attending her first major ceremony since being diagnosed. “I put on 40 pounds; I can’t walk without a cane. I want people to know that I am very aware of all of that.”
“I have a very important ceremony coming up. This will be my first time out since diagnosed with MS.
