Selma Blair: With walking stick at the Oscar party
US actress Selma Blair (46, "Ice-cold angels") first appeared in public on Sunday evening after being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis last year. At the Vanity Fair Academy Awards party in Beverly Hills, she appeared in a long Ralph & Russo dress that glowed in the colors pink, mint green, ice blue, and black. In addition, the 46-year-old had a walking stick with him.
On Instagram she had previously shared a picture of the walker. You can see how the stick is decorated with its monogram and a piece of jewelry. "That's love," Blair wrote: "How did I make so much luck?" She wanted a special stick for the Oscars, the actress continued. Your designer would have "lovingly worked on it for many hours". She said she was "crying," she says, "These gifts help me get through this."
Statement on the disease in October
Selma Blair had spoken for the first time in October that she was diagnosed with the disease. She has been giving her fans insights into her life with MS ever since. She does her best, she answered, inter alia, to the question of how she deals with it. But she is struggling with the pain of "what I lost" and "how difficult it is to walk around". "I can not sleep at night, but during the day I have trouble staying awake." However, she also said, "My smile is real."
The disease that affects the central nervous system can manifest itself through many different symptoms. "Sometimes I fall, I drop things, my memory is bad, and my left side is asking for a broken GPS for directions," Blair also wrote on Instagram. She probably has been suffering from MS for 15 years. Now she is relieved that she finally knows what she has, she told her fans in the fall.
