I cant do this.
[The nurses] were like, Youre doing this to get out of class.
Its probably just anxiety.
Go back to class.
They wouldnt do anything for it.
Because I was just like, This is rude.
I feel sick and youre telling me to go to PE and run laps around the football field.
I cant do that.
Applegate acknowledged that she felt guilty for not understanding her daughters symptoms sooner.
“I was like, ‘Oh, I kind of felt that way too.’
I feel so horrible that we didn’t pay attention to it.”
TheDead to Mestar, whohas multiple sclerosis, also compared their symptoms.
I just didnt see it at home, babe at home you were fine.
But its kind of like us, she explained.
“If I didnt have this, I probably would be like, ‘I dont really care.
I don’t know what you’re talking about,'” she said.
“I actually have tremors from POTS.
During their conversation on the show, Applegate expressed sadness over her daughters condition.
I hate it for you, my darling.
I really hate it for you, she said.
But I love you, and I know youre going to be okay.
And Im here for you and I believe you.
And thank you for bringing this to light and awareness.
A lot of people dont know about this.
