If you didn't know, multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system.
While she's had health issues ever since her son was born in 2011, the "Legally Blonde" actress only just recently got officially diagnosed.
"And I was self-medicating when he wasn’t with me. I was drinking."
She recalled the time she had to pull over for a nap after driving her son, Arthur, to school.
"And not taken seriously by doctors, just, ‘Single mother, you’re exhausted, financial burden, blah, blah, blah.’”
"I was a little scared of talking," she said.
"He said within a year, I will have 90 percent of my abilities back."
Namely, how it's affected her ability to be there for her son.
Right now, they are currently separated for health reasons.
"Needing to believe in this knowing we will never know. Strange. I count on the spirits of this world more than I ever thought."
"I need this boy to see me do things I never thought I could. And I will do my best. It really is gratitude."
Brooke Shields wrote: "My prayers and love are sent to you from the depths of my heart."
This time, it was a #throwback picture of them taking a bubble bath.
While some criticized the star for taking a "#bikinibath" with her son, most of the comments were positive.
We're wishing Selma all the best on her road to recovery!
