Blair shares her struggles in and out of the hospital with multiple sclerosis in the upcoming film.
, Blair, 49, is shown dealing with the consequences of having her body rebel against her — she needs a cane, she walks unsteadily, she's exhausted easily, and she explains what it's like to not have enough air to say,"I can't breathe."
"I always thought I was on a reality show, like I was in a documentary, but only God would see it and disapprove," she says, as references to chemotherapy and stem cell transplants come up. She adds later in the trailer,"I was told to make plans for dying. Not because I have MS, but because I'm fighting MS. ... I feel like I'm in the Tom Hanks movie where he's stranded on an island."Chris Wolf / GC Images

The disease can cause deterioration or permanent damage of the nerves,"I may be the subject of this film but my hope is that everyone sees themselves in it and finds some strength and joy they may not have known they had," the"Cruel Intentions" and"Anger Management" actor said in a news release earlier this year.
