She is such a fighter. So happy for her.
She has the most beautiful spirit. I hope she stays healthy long term.
God bless her!!! she has been so strong and look at her beating this terrible battle! the strength in the woman is unimaginable!
Selma is 49 !? no way !!!. I am so excited and happy for her that she is in remission. She's inspired so many others who are also facing MS head on.
Time flies!
She must have amazing medical aid to afford these treatments and happy for her. Just hoping the same will be afforded to other MS sufferers.
Food is not even available for the hungry, what makes you hope amazing medical aid will be?
@@bigmacdaddy1234 nothing, and why I used the word "HOPE".
@@marynamurray9385 It's hopeless really.
@@bigmacdaddy1234 Well, most of us know that the pharmaceutical companies and medical schemes are the worst industries in the world. They only care about profits, not health.
@@bigmacdaddy1234 - screw off. Some of us have so many lesions on the brain that our neurologists have said that we have probably been carrying MS for decades. I look at Selma Blair and hope for the best. Comments like yours aren't at all hel0ful. Keep them to yourself.
I remember when Montell Williams came out and talked about his diagnosis years ago. When he talked about his use of food and cannabis people acted like he was doing something unconventional. Seems to me that man made drugs are more unconventional. It would be good to see how he’s doing these days.
I remember when montel Williams went public with his battle 😥 Selma has a documentary on discovery in a few days
HSCT reboots the immune system, not the nervous system. It does stop the immune system from attacking the nervous system in many people. Many have gone through this and the progression has stopped, and a good many have seen improvements as their body heals itself. Good for her in making a personal, private situation public.
She is amazing! Seems like such a beautiful person! I wish her nothing but the best!!! 💕
Must be nice to have the kind of money for stem cell treatments. Most Insurance doesn’t cover them. Poor people with MS are screwed.
She is full of BS.
Nice one , actually I’m really depressed right now, lost a coworker. very devastating , Needed someone to talk to.
She is Right! The poor in our state are put out of hospitals and left to die!
I had that happen 2 of my family members!
MS is never in remission. My husband and son both have it.
There are 4 types of MS. One IS relapse/remitting. But MS never goes away. I don't know how she's in "remission". Maybe she's just feeling better. Kudos to her though for feeling better.
My heart goes out to Selma Blair. My late wife had MS and I worked for a home health agency that cared for MS patients so I understand the panic she went through. I sincerely hope the therapy works for her.
I am praying Christiana Applegate can get this treatment
Yeah Oh my God I am so happy. She deserves it. Lots of love and blessings and wishes to her. Thank you for the update
I'm still praying for you. Ms. Blair. I really am.
I am so happy for this gem of a Mom and artist, she is a class act and I pray she holds this gift gently in her heart and walks softly forward in her Life.
I hope this treatment works for her! She’s a lovely person! I used to work with a person who had a stem cell transplant, and she’s in remission for cancer. It’s amazing how far medicine and medical technology has advanced! Thanks, GMA, for this segment!
drama queens🙄
This is wrong.
She has multiple sclerosis and there is no cure for MS. It is not cancer and chemotherapy will not work. So the term "in remission" is very strange.
I know, I have multiple sclerosis.
Hello beautiful how are you
Nice one , actually I’m really depressed right now, lost a coworker. very devastating , Needed someone to talk to
I didn’t know you could be in remission from MS. Super cool, happy for her
I admire her optimism but remission is not out of the ordinary with MS. It's NOT really remission but a plateau. How do I know. My mother and a friend both had MS. Typically with MS, it progresses, then there's a plateau, then the progression continues.
@@velociraptorwolf447 They did state that this was an experimental treatment though so maybe it will be approved one day and will work for people like yourself 🤷🏾♀️
@@velociraptorwolf447 I think the chemo was prep for some form of stem cell treatment. The aim of which, I believe, is to slow progression.
@@velociraptorwolf447 I don't believe her either
@@velociraptorwolf447 I hope you too get better. I read a book years ago and the gist of that to maintain longer plateau's is to eat fish three times a day. This worked for the author who is a doctor. Chemo has many side affects.
@@velociraptorwolf447 chemo therapy has been used to treat ms for quite a while.
Remission…yeah they need to get the wording correct. Must be nice to afford all those treatments while I watch multiple friends I know go downhill with this.😢
I have MS and I do not believe a word that Selma says. I think she is full of BS.
@@velociraptorwolf447 what don't you believe?
@@velociraptorwolf447 I agree with you .I don't really think she has MS
I really don't see the point in lying? Everything saying she's dishonest, but whytf would u lie about that?
@@goldengirl617
She said she is in remission, that .Evans cured/clear of it. There is no cure for MS.
Best news ever, I have generalized myasthenia gravis and I pray to God I go in to remission.keep being a strong person and thanks for encouragement.
Ask your doctor about getting a robotic thymectomy
Bless you, that’s an awkward disorder plus you have to keep explaining it. I hope you have a remission m
This is wonderful news for a strong inspirational woman! I admire her so much!! So happy for her & all her loved ones. I wish her continued great health & may she blaze the trail for many others.
OMG I grow up watching her movies, I had no idea, I’m shocked!! I really hope she gets better and have long beautiful life!
drama queens🙄
When she pharts it smells like roses too!
Great to hear. Brilliant news. Selma continue to recover and be very well. Much Love.
Brave woman, beautiful soul 🙏❤️🌎 Praying for the best possible long term outcome , for Selma & others 🧠
I didn't know there was such a things as remission with MS
This makes me so incredibly happy.
Thank you Jesus! I cried when I found out and watched the interview with her coming out with MS
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@xana5649 how is that funny
Not experimental it’s proven I had to do a fundraiser and sell my business in order to pay to go to Russia and have the same treatment
I am absolutely so thankful for this. Selma I hope that you read this because you are an inspiration. My 6 year old little girl has tourettes and she loved watching your interview! People like you give her the confidence that she really needs. She smiled and said "mom she's like me!" ... you have no idea how you have changed her view of the world. You're a pretty princess and you have "wiggles" too like she does. Thank you so very much for doing this!
I am overjoyed to hear the news. What an absolutely wonderful warrior!!! Woohoo. 💕😘🙏 You go you!!! Selma is my hero 😘
I'm sooo happy for her, but its crazy just when you hear about Christina Applegate's diagnosis next Selma Blair's in remission and what's ironic is they worked together in "THE SWEETEST THING ".
My uncle had severe MS, it was so hard watching him go through it… he refused chemo. His heart ended up basically exploding in his chest. Miss you everyday uncle. Praying for her and her well-being.
Nice one , actually I’m really depressed right now, lost a coworker. very devastating , Needed someone to talk to
@@tyyepes4727 I am sincerely sorry for your loss, there’s no pain like it and I’m truly sorry you’re experiencing the loss of a friend. Sending you prayers and love.
@@tyyepes4727 💕
@@tyyepes4727 We are here for you if you still need to talk, Ty! I hope you’re okay.
@@jamilah1938 Thank you.. You seems quite cool, would it be nice if we become friends.
Good for you selma 💟
Bravo Selma and thanks for your kindness with her and for giving us information!👏👏
Ohh my, I didn't even know this and I'm a fan of hers. What a beautiful heart she has.
So happy she is doing better. Bless her heart
"the treatment depends on age, symptoms, progression" and knowing someone who knows someone to get into an experimental treatment, being wealthy and having access to incredible health coverage. I'm sick of the news playing this stuff off like it accessable to anyone. It absolutely is not.
I'm sick of it too! She had stem cell transplant that costs around $100,000 per treatment! Not covered by insurance! I recently lost my job because of the pandemic, lost my health insurance. When I went to purchase insurance costs me TRIPLE because of MS which is a preexisting condition. She has money to throw around. She's no inspiration to me.
No offense but I think most people know it’s not just like they have a cure for things but not assessable for everybody this year to cancer so I need to get it same over the aides but you don’t yet have a lot of money to get it And I think most people probably should know that or know that by now
Its not experimental for blood cancers. Its standard of care for that.
@@smitha5022 medicaid will pay for it.
In the old times, MS patients ended up in a wheelchair and died young. Remember Jacqueline Du Pre ...
I’m so so so happy for her !!! I hope she reaches out to christina applegate 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓
Let's have a quick shout out to Christina Applegate
Nice one , actually I’m really depressed right now, lost a coworker. very devastating , Needed someone to talk to.
THANK YOU GOD ! I HAVE BEEN PRAYING TO GOD FOR YOU SELMA . GOD IS HERE GOD IS NOW . I LOVE YOU AND I HOPE YOU REMEMBER ME WELL.
That is some wonderful news !! She is such amazing & beautiful Lady. I wish her all the best & happiness 💗 Hopefully she will be in remission for a long time !
Money helps to get the best of the best treatment. What about the other people who suffer for this?
Amen hope she stays healthy
Stay strong! Such a inspiration.
Happy for Selma, I just wish my daughter could have access to stem cell treatment as well , she was diagnosed at 12 yrs old and now at 26 yrs old is using a wheelchair , our insurance doesn't cover cutting edge treatments , I'm glad it was successful for her, hopefully this will become available for the rest of the population dealing with MS
The reporter looks like Superman! Does anybody see that? Btw, I'm happy Selma is doing better and helping us learn more about this illness.Much love to you and your son
That’s Christopher Reeve’s son, (Superman)
I am so happy for her 😊
She is so brave.
That's AMAZING! The last time I saw her speak she was on stage taking about MS. She looked and sounded very ill. I hope she is in remission for good! 💗💗💗
God, why is Stem cell research getting to patients so slowly? Research should be speed up worldwide a Million times.
Wonderful news, hopefully she remains in remission for many years.
So proud of her and all men and women who are navigating their neurological diseases on a daily basis. You’re all amazing. 💕
Happy for Selma ! 😊 - Awesome 👌 News ! 💪
Fantastic news
I love her. With all my heart. ❤
Good thing she is rich and can afford the treatment
I wish stem cell treatments were more widely available to the masses. Perhaps the price will come down in coming years.
Such amazing news. So much love to you Selma Blair. 🌼🦋❤️
I’ve been praying for you Selma
Happy for her! I hope this treatment can be afforded to others too, not just the rich!
I am so happy for you Selma Blair.
Much Love to you, Selma! Wishing all the best to you!
I have fibromyalgia, multiple Sclerosis and Dercums Disease along with Osteoporosis and 2 types of arthritis and Reynaud's Syndrome along with other issues like kidney stones. I'm suffering so bad. I wish I could afford a treatment to stop this all. I'm in agony.
I myself had this MS for over 10 years I'm 63 now. My goal is to try to at least tolerate walking on my rollator. Always good to rule out any thing that could be something other than MS. Sounds like this method is working the best it can, just wish my medicare can see its way through it but anyway, we need to just stay proactive!
I know this MS is very challenging and many times, but by staying proactive we won't let this MS rule us over ;-).(also try physical therapy with neuroplasticity)
Good for her! My one and only real remission happened over twenty years ago, and I still remember how wonderful it felt!
wishing you all the best in all aspects of your life; god bless you
I am so happy to hear this. I pray her remission lasts forever. I love her bravery and she gives me hope.
So happy for her!!!
I am so glad to hear this Selma is a fighter a d a character!
It works best for those who have money. I'm not knocking her she's beautiful but there's us that can't even get a diagnosis or help lose everything because we can't work and doctors laugh at me, mock me and don't listen. My quality of life is crap
Estar en remisión no significa que se haya curado.
Es una enfermedad AUTOINMUNE y para nosotros es muy bueno estar en remisión, y podemos estar AÑOS así…, pero sabemos que en cualquier momento y por la mínima causa podemos volver a entrar en brote y quizás ser más fuerte que el anterior.
Espero que se vaya controlando poco a poco para poder compartir muchos años con su niño.
Yo tengo la enfermedad de Chron (afecta todo el aparato digestivo) y actualmente llevo un tratamiento biológico intravenoso cada ocho semanas y aunque he perdido parte del intestino y han sido muchas las idas y venidas al hospital, de momento no llego a estar en remisión del todo, pero por lo menos ya no siento el dolor que tenía antes de comenzar el tratamiento.
Mucha fuerza!!!
I am so glad to hear that she is doing better. I pray that this healing lasts!
Can't the same be done for patients with Lou Gehrig's disease? That would be great!
So basically the treatment is only available for wealthy people....ok.
Do you know that song hell on wheels ??????? ♿♿♿♿♿♿♿♿♿♿♿♿♿♿♿♿🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
She just seems like a bad ass to me, i am glad she got the treatment so her quality of life improves. Hopefully she stays healthy, so many negative people talking bs as usual 👀👎😳🤔💔
Nice one , actually I’m really depressed right now, lost a coworker. very devastating , Needed someone to talk to.
She is so Fu(€ing brave !!!! I hope her treatment continues to be this effective 😍
So sad...but we all have battles big or small...it's called : living
best wishes to Selma and Robin , Good Health to you !
God bless her ….. strong soul she has … love her

What’s the difference in her ms and Christina Applegate?
God bless her, it is painful !🙏👊👏👍😘💋
She is so goddamn strong. Admirable woman!
Why didn't GMA interview her in person in an update? Weird
So strong. God bless you in your fight.
So happy she is in remission!!! Im rooting for her
Next Good News: Selma Blair announces sequel to Cruel Intentions.
@Good Morning America - this is a beautiful portrayal of Selma Blair you all designed: informative, well-researched, honoring, sympathetic, hopeful. Thank you for doing this; the highlight of my day. ❤️❤️
YESSSSS!! So happy for her. Keep fighting warrior sister!!💪🏽🙏🏼🤗❤
Thank You Selma Blair!! I had no idea at all! I am SO HAPPY she's OK, and I believe she will be OK. I still remember in Cruel Intentions in high school, and of course Legally Blonde with Reese Witherspoon.
There is no such thing as remission from MS. Injections and medications can stave it off for a few years but it eventually reaches a point where both treatments and medication are ineffective. You have good days and bad. Sometimes, if you are very lucky you have several good months where you are like your old self. This is what Selma is experiencing. It is important to not be over confident and in denial with MS or the depression you'll fall into when it flares back with a vengeance could lead to very bad thoughts and despair as well as suicidal tendencies. I have an Aunt with MS and she has dealt with it all. Eventually with MS, no matter how rich you are, you will be permanently wheelchair bound. That's just the reality of living life with MS. Stem cell treatments are just that, only treatments, they are still very experimental and can only help for a very short time. There is still no cure for MS.
We just watched her documentary and were very moved. It didn't end with such an uplifting result, so I'm really happy to hear she's finally in remission. MS is an ugly illness, my cousin suffers from it. It is amazing what medicine can achieve!
There is no cure for MS... my cousin passed away from multiple sclerosis. I'm very confused how she could be in remission. Wish her the best though.
@@velociraptorwolf447 I saw your comment about having MS.
May God bless you and give you strength. It disturbed me to see that article. I’ve seen the end result of MS. It broke my heart to see my cousin suffer from the disease.
She never said she's cured. She said she's in remission.
@@Shay-yg7nm unless you or someone you love is ravaged by this disease,you couldn't have the same kind of empathy or understand how it feels to live with MS.
BUT you have a right to speak your mind in the comments. Just don't come for me. Mind the business that pays you. Now have a good day!!
@@Shay-yg7nm
Well what do you think in remission means? It means clear of the disease/infliction.
Thankfully you are wrong and I am right, because I know shat I'm talking about unlike people like you that believe any BS that is spoon fed to you.
@@velociraptorwolf447 my best friend has ms and has been in remission quite a few times. I think it is part of the nature of the disease.
This wonderful to hear, she is a real inspiration for everyone who has MS. She is a beautiful, wonderful, positive woman, go Selma.... You can do this xxxxxx
Go ahead baby!! You are strong!!
I’m from Europe and my dad, a doctor, gave my aunt who had MS fresh stem cells. I think it was fresh stem cells from young sheep. My aunt healed from MS and never had any traces of MS since then. That was approx 40 years ago.
20-30 years ago SM was a capital punishment, I love seeing there is a major progress and one day SM will be a curable disease, good luck Selma from italy
🥳🥳🥳🥳❤️❤️❤️💕💕💕 so happy for you Selma live happy live strong live long 🐞
Good for her!
It’s good to have money & fame to be a ginny pig for new medical experiments/treatments.
