Christina Applegate has a few life events she wants to cross off her list as she continues to battle multiple sclerosis.
Applegate’s wish list garnered over 16,000 likes, with fans cheering the Bad Moms star on in the comments. “I love this! Go after it girl!” one person wrote, with another adding, “I pray you get everything you wish for.”
Her comments came just a week after her daughter, Sadie Grace Applegate LeNoble, shared details about her own health struggles as she battles postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), a circulatory disorder that can make sufferers feel faint and dizzy.
Sadie said she was diagnosed with the condition several months ago, but has been living with the affliction “for a long time.” During her conversation, she recounted how she would go to the school nurse “multiple times a day” when she was in the sixth grade because she always felt lightheaded, even though her symptoms weren’t taken seriously.
Applegate said she felt “guilty” for not recognizing what was going on with her daughter.
Applegate has been open about her own struggles with her health after her MS diagnosis in 2021.
Last month, the Dead to Me star told Sigler, 43, that she was “in a depression.”
“A real, f—-it-all depression — like, a real depression, where it’s kind of scaring me too a little bit because it feels really fatalistic, it feels really ‘end of,’” she said. “I don’t mean that, but I’m trapped in this darkness right now that I haven’t felt in probably 20-something years.”
Applegate went on to say that after being diagnosed with the disease, she doesn’t “enjoy living.”
“I don’t enjoy it. I don’t enjoy things anymore,” she added.
According to the Cleveland Clinic, MS affects the central nervous system and can cause muscle weakness, vision changes, numbness and memory issues.
But Applegate is also trying to have a lighthearted outlook on her new reality, calling Sigler the“Simon to my Garfunkel” this week as she joked about her struggles to groom her bikini line amid her MS fight.
Sigler, who has had MS for two decades, added, “You have to sit on the floor. You gotta literally sit on the floor of your shower and contort yourself in strange ways.”
