Christina Applegate’s daughter discusses her own diagnosis amid mother’s MS battle
Christina Applegate’s daughter has revealed her own diagnosis during her mother’s continuous battle with MS.
Fans were heartbroken when Applegate, 52, revealed that she had been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis after experiencing symptoms such as exhaustion and movement concerns for months.
MS is an illness that affects the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves, and patients may experience a variety of symptoms such as excessive fatigue, depression, muscle and joint problems, and sеxual dysfunction.
Fortunately, the Dead To Me star appears to have a solid support network, including her 13-year-old daughter, to help her through her illness.
On a recent episode of her MeSsy podcast, which she co-hosts with fellow actor Jamie-Lynn Sigler, Applegate mentioned her daughter Sadie, whom she has with husband Martyn LeNoble.
The kid expressed a desire to speak on her mother’s podcast to share how her diagnosis has affected her as well.”It’s been really hard to watch my mom go from this person who could get up and dance every night,” she remarked during the June 25 episode.
“When I was a kid, we’d spend hours dancing in her room. “When she was diagnosed in 2021, it didn’t feel like everything was over, but it was difficult to witness my mother lose many of her abilities.
