Summary

If there’s one thing we know about Christina Applegate, it’s that she’s a fighter. The “Anchorman” actor beat breast cancer back in 2008, but is now facing another major health battle. Christina recently opened up to the New York Times about being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, and how living with the disabling disease has affected filming for the final season of her Netflix show “Dead to Me.” Even with this whole new set of physical limitations and challenges, Christina is still tenacious as hell, and she’s not letting MS stop her from finishing what she started. With over 40 years of showbiz experience under her belt, there’s no one more equipped to take this challenge head-on than this fierce comedy icon! We love you, Christina!
