Christina Applegate is accepting a huge honor while making her first public appearance since being diagnosed with MS.

The 50-year-old Dead to Me actress attended her Hollywood Walk of Fame Ceremony on Monday (November 24) in Los Angeles.

She broke down in tears while talking about her daughter and thanking her for supporting her through her MS diagnosis.

“The most important person in this world is my daughter. You are so much more than even you know. You are so beautiful and kind and smart and interesting. I’m blessed every day that I get to wake up and take you to school…thank you for standing by me through all of this,” she said.

She then called of her fans in attendance “gorgeous” and added, “Every single one of you. I love you [all] so much.”

If you didn’t know, she filmed the final season of Dead to Me while battling MS, and told Variety it was “hard as you would possibly think it would be.”
