David Faustino says Christina Applegate keeps her humor amid MS battle

David Faustino said Christina Applegate still leans on her signature wit as she faces multiple sclerosis. "It’s been very hard for her, but she does keep her humor," he said, calling her diagnosis "a real blow" and noting her "dry, sarcastic sense of humor since the moment I met her," adding that "nothing has changed." Faustino described Applegate as "extremely sarcastic" and "extremely dry," saying, "She gets through this with some humor, and that’s kind of her way that she moves through it." He said he has been "a support" since her June 2021 diagnosis and keeps in regular contact: "I do a lot of visits with her.

A lot of texting, a lot of checking in. A lot of funny just crap that we talk about. And that’s all I can do, right? Give her my love." Applegate was hospitalized earlier this year and in April posted, "Thank you for the outpouring of love and well wishes. Health issues are a constant for me, but I’m a strong chick and I’m getting stronger and better every day.
