It also mentions that the actress was bedridden due to this disease and did not have the ability to perform basic activities daily.
The page description says, “Upon seeing her condition during a recent visit to her home in Van Nuys, we decided to move her from Los Angeles to live with me and my family in Virginia, and while we are working to ensure she gets the medical help she needs, the costs associated with her care are mounting.”
