My daughter has progressive MS. As the name implies, it's progressing extremely fast. Since her diagnosis five years ago, she has deteriorated rapidly. For the last three years she's been unable to stand, can hardly talk or see, shakes all the time, and has spasms. It took four years for Social Security disability to approve the disability claim. Now she has to wait one more year to get Medicare. In the meantime she has no insurance.
Christina I’m glad you are doing well and look great. I wish you all the best, nobody deserved this malady. But your circumstances are different from most people afflicted with this terrible disease. You can afford therapy, doctors, and treatment. Not everyone can, and that makes the situation even worse.

Firstly, as everyone knows Christina is one of the smartest women around. However, I have never forgotten one of her best scenes from Married with Children.
Kelly (reading from a book): Bud - what's this word
Bud: A
Kelly: Oh, like the letter.
For some reason that utterly killed me, and still does today: )

You know what's as bad as having MS Being on an antidepressant for 6 months, 6 years ago and having all the symptoms of MS, lupus, MCTD, and burning mouth syndrome because of the brain and neurological damage that even 1 dose of an antidepressant causes I am that person and it's a painful struggle that I wish on nobody.

Christina is a strong woman, she battled cancer and now MS, she works hard to keep her spirits high and positive thinking otherwise things will go down the hill so fast that depression would find a home in her that she may not get out of it - she is a great role model to survivors of cancer and MS

That poor girl has been through so much. Had breast cancer & lost both breasts & now MS, but she tries to keep a positive & funny attitude. One of my best friend's died from MS. He was pretty much a vegetable when he died. Broke my heart. I wish her the best. She's still a doll.

Have always loved Christina and her comedy! She is a great scene stealer because of her talent and timing. I wish she could have had an easier life but am so glad to see her and wish her some easier times and many reasons to smile. She deserves it.

I just got diagnosed with a fatal lung disease. Like she said, it sucks. I don't wish it on anyone. But I am learning to live with it. And I've decided that for the rest of my now short life is to be happy and try to make others happy.

In the credits of that old movie, Jaws of Satan: 'King Cobra played by 'Defanged Rattle Snake'. That's so funny. They even have it rattle really loud. They should have a Mystery Theatre with these types of movies in it.

She’s so charming. I love her comedy work, the Anchormans, and my personal favourite Vacation with Ed Helms.
She’s a rock star and showing more strength and courage in trying times than most people display in a lifetime.

I have PPMS (Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis) There are no treatments available in Australia for this disease. It pisses me off that famous people can get all the attention whilst we the common people get ignored.

I just saw something on MS. I think I was watching SciShow here on YT. They think it's a dormant virus, iirc. Seems like there's some real hope for deleting this sickness. Hope you find a cure soon.

I love her, and her attitude! Maybe a first crush being a 50 year old guy now, watching married with children back in the day. All the best to you Christina. I appreciate Jimmy and his writers

The upside is MS hasn't impaired Christina's mind at all. She's hilarious and brilliant! Stay well. Find a cure! Unrelated but reminds me of Michael J Fox hanging tough. Hope he's well, too.

Still beautiful and funny after all these years. Nothing healthier than being able to laugh at ourselves no matter what life throws at us. Glad to see her tonight.
