Selma Blair has multiple sclerosis
In her post, Blair continued by describing the emotional toll it has taken on her life.
Actress Selma Blair has used Instagram to reveal she is suffering from multiple sclerosis. In the post she details the troubles she is experiencing with the simplest of tasks, including getting dressed, reports TheHollywoodReporter.com.
She revealed that she was in a wardrobe fitting two days ago for her new 10-episode Netflix sci-fi series, Another Life, and the experience led her to the “deepest gratitude” for costume designer Allisa Swanson. “She carefully gets my legs in my pants, pulls my tops over my head, buttons my coats and offers her shoulder to steady myself,” she wrote, adding, “I have Multiple Sclerosis.”
In her post, Blair continued by describing the emotional toll it has taken on her life. “I am in an exacerbation. By the grace of the lord, and will power and the understanding producers at Netflix, I have a job. A wonderful job,” she wrote, adding, “I am disabled. I fall sometimes. I drop things. My memory is foggy. And my left side is asking for directions from a broken GPS. But we are doing it. And I laugh and I don’t know exactly what I will do from precisely but I will do my best.”
