"It’s been a tough road," she continued. "But as we all know, the road keeps going. Unless some a--hole blocks it."

The actress has been candid about how her health struggles have affected her life, including her ability to parent her 15-year-old daughter, Sadie, whom she shares with husband Martyn LeNoble.

"I want to take her [to school and activities]; it’s my favorite thing to do," Applegate previously told People. "It’s the only time we have together by ourselves. I tell myself, ‘Just get her there safely and get home so you can get back into bed.’ And that’s what I do."

Applegate said her physical limitations have also made her more determined to be honest about her life.

"My life isn’t wrapped up with a bow," she said. "People’s lives, sorry for lack of a better term, f---ing suck sometimes. So I’m being as honest and raw as I possibly can."

During a previous episode of her "MeSsy" podcast, Applegate discussed how her health struggles have affected Sadie.

"She didn’t know this. It was like losing the mom she had to this f---ing thing," Applegate said. "And the more she’s gotten older now, I think the more it’s hurting her."

"Mommy can’t do all the things that she used to be able to do, and I see it in her eyes," she added. "I see it."
