Despite putting on 40 pounds and not being able to walk without a stick due to multiple sclerosis, "Dead to Me" star Christina is confident of completing the final season. She felt obliged to the creator of the series (Dead to Me), Liz Feldman, and the rest of the crew to move ahead with the episodes despite her complex physical condition. The production stopped for five months following her contracting the disease in August 2021. She was speaking to the media ahead of the premiere of the new season of "Dead to Me."
More attention was needed, perhaps. Christina wished she had not ignored the disease's early symptoms, which were evident for some time before the final diagnosis happened. But, unfortunately, the tingling sensation, which she ignored, increased with time.
