Keep speaking for us Selma & thank you! I feel all of this. I was diagnosed with MS in 2004. The struggle is painstakingly real.✌️💙

She is not lying at all... I lived with hyperthyroidism for many years and it wasn't diagnosed until 2022 when I was rushed to the ER and after all the testing the doctor told me I was going through a thyroid storm! I wish more Doctors took the time to hear us. Thank you Selma❣️

Thanks to MTP and Ms Welker for this really important interview - and many thanks to Ms Blair for her advocacy and for so bravely sharing her story.

I have been a fan on Selma even since I first saw her as an actor. And I always will be. Great lady.

Selma is inspiring and a great example of using bad things that happen to you for good. I am so glad to hear her MS is in remission! I had no idea that MS could manifest in young kids. The fact she had signs something was going on when she was only seven is eye opening. On a girly note, I love her blonde bob. ❤

shame we dont have her in uk to speak out not just for disabled but carers too! great interview!

To say she felt better on chemo broke my heart. I can’t imagine the pain she has to go through. She’s incredibly strong.

Love u Selma!! I am from India and I was 26 when i was diagnosed with MS in 2016. Living with MS for years, i cannot express my pain and problems to anyone. Each day i struggle and battle with my pain. Worst part is there is no cure for this disease. We can delay relapses by taking injections and medicines but no ultimate cure. Waiting for that day in my life when i will hear FINALLY I AM MS FREE!!

Some doctors do a disservice to their professional vocation. They do harm.

Dr Burton!!!! I begged him to take me!!! It’s 120,0000! Well back in 2017

I think males might be taken more seriously than females (if that's true) because they are far less likely to actually go to a doctor, so when they do, it is considered to be something legit.
