i wasn't always drinking, but there were times when i couldn't take it. and i was really struggling with how am i going to get by in life? and not taken seriously by doctors. just single mother, you're exhausted, financial burden, blah, blah, blah, and i even got to the point i said i need to go to work and i have to stay awake. i dropped my son off at school a mile away, and before i got home, i would have to pull over and take a nap. and i was ashamed. and i was doing the best i could. and i was a great mother. but it was killing me. and so when i got the diagnosis, i cried with some relief, like, oh, good, i'll be able to do something. >> reporter: struggling with symptoms for years prior to her diagnosis, selma sought out the help of fellow actor michael j. fox who has lived with parkinson's disease for nearly 30 years. >> and i said, i don't know who to tell, but i'm dropping things. i'm doing strange things. he got in touch with me and we

began a conversation. so he really helped me, plus i was like -- i have michael j. fox's e-mail now. like, i'm pretty cool. like, i'm cooler than i thought. but really, he gives me hope. >> how difficult was it difficult to share with your son? >> not at all. i always want him to feel safe, never responsible for me. but he had already seen that i was falling and doing things. and i was always laughing. and he'd imitate me. and i would be like, that's fine, but don't do that out of the house. people will think you're a jerk, so i did have to tell him after the mri. i said i have to tell you that i have something called multiple sclerosis. and he almost cried and said will it kill you? and i said, no, i mean, we never know what kills us but this is not the doctor telling me i'm dying. he was like, oh, okay. >> what gets you through those difficult days? >> i get in bed and don't move.

you just have to. and say, i got to -- and my son gets it. and now i've learned not to feel guty >> what are doctors telling you? what is your prognosis? >> the doctor i saw he said within a year i could have at the time he said, 90% of my abilities back. so this is -- this is to say let's meet again next year and see if i'm better. if i'm not and i can still have a conversation, that's good enough, and i want to see. i want to see for other people and i want to see for me and see where i am. i was a little scared of talking. and even my neurologist said no, this will bring a lot of awareness. because no one has the energy to talk when they're in a flare-up camera.

>> you got a date. i'll see you in a year. >> okay, okay. i can't wait.mesh iredible. >> what an example she is setting for her son but also for everyone in the way she's telling her story. >> when i told people i was going to be doing -- and believe me, these are just tears of joy for her to be able to share her story. and she has. and she has touched a lot of people. and you have to know that m.s. is unique. the symptoms present themselves differently in different people and she's finding inspiration from her experience and she even wants to -- she's really proud of her blinged out cane. and she also designing some of her clothes. because she's unable to button. so she wants to -- she's appreciative of the clothing out there, but it's not cool enough for selma blair and for otrs ah

>> the exasperation that she's going through. but you know what's so frustrating, the fact that she knew something was wrong. >> and the doctors couldn't figure it out. >> finally had the mri and the diagnosis and she probably living with it for many years and presents itself in more women than men. you can see much more of the interview. we had a great time. see it tonight on "nightline" then "vanity fair's" feature on selma is live on their website, vanityfair.com. and the march issue is on newsstands now. she uses the hashtag still a working actress. she's still out working and she has a netflix show and she's so appreciative of the fellow actors and the producers who are working with her and understanding what it is to live with a chronic condition like that. >> we hope a lot more work is coming. we'll be right back. we'll be right back. coming. we'll be right back. th my podia. how's wednesday at 2?

we are seeking a full understanding of the facts while ensuring that we do not interfere with an ongoing law enforcement investigation. kraft's spokesperson maintains his client is innocent telling that mr. kraft engaged in any illegal activity. jailtime is very unlikely. still looking at a fine as well as community service, but an nfl punishment is feasible. their personal conduct policy points out owners are held to a higher standard than plays. back in 2014, they suspended and fined colts owner jim irsay six games for dui, but they'll let it play out here. >> he could face a year in prison. want to bring in our legal analyst sunny hostin. >> that won't happen. this will be more about education rather than punishment. i mean, these are serious crimes but the bottom line is i think they'll have him do about 100 hours of community service. >> the nfl position is kind of tricky because roger goodell

the commissioner actually works for the owners. >> that's true. but they have to avoid hypocrisy in this situation. we know that the nfl have had a lot of trouble in terms of messaging to women and so they have to make an example out of robert kraft. >> something will be happening. thanks, sunny. coming up, we have a teenage girl lucky to be alive after a plane crashes into her bedroom. you don't want to miss the story. we'll be right back. your allergy pills? om most pills don't finish the job because they don't relieve nasal congestion. flonase sensimist is different. it relieves all your worst symptoms, including nasal congestion, which most pills don't. it's more complete allergy relief. and all from a gentle mist you can barely feel. flonase sensimist helps block six key inflammatory substances. most pills only block one. and six is greater than one. flonase sensimist. and six is greater than one. we all care about amazing taste. that's why we've been making the best mayonnaise

too crazy about. >> you know, social media is -- well, it's a thing, right? and it's a much bigger thing for her than it is for me. these instagram stories, there's a constant -- i mean, that's -- >> you are not thrilled. >> that's my feeling every time she pulls her phone out. because i don't get any attention anytime. it's all about this. what she's doing. if i want to know what she's done i don't even call her anymore. i just go on her instagram. >> i find out things from my wife from her instagram, it's scary. >> i think that's showing my age. >> so tell us about will chase, your character. >> so, i play in "whiskey cavalier" that is will chase's code name. i guess every fbi operative has a code name and whiskey cavalier is mine. he is a heart on the sleeve spy. he is in touch with his emotions. just the opposite of what jake ballard was on "scandal." if jake was strong and stoic, never talked about his feelings or his emotions, will chase is just the opposite.

and it's so much fun to play. you know, to get to play both it's an actor's dream. >> you guys want to see some? >> what do you got? [ applause ] >> i really want to text her. >> listen, i get it. there are a lot of feelings here but what did we decide about your feelings? >> right, i have my feelings. my feelings don't have me. >> yeah. so just keep taking it one day at a time. listen, i will call you later and we will eat ice cream on the phone together. >> affirmative, yes, we'll pursue that plan of action. >> i know that tone. did the boss catch you? >> affirmative. [ applause ] >> i love that. >> thank you. >> but what we didn't see in the clip is, this is an action-packed show. every time you're running, you're constantly running. physically what was it like for you to do -- >> tiring. you know, you see me running for five seconds chasing a guy. i spent three hours doing it again and again and again. a camera on a dolly. a steady cam.

long lens shot. it's exhausting, it is. it's a ton of fun. you know, i try to do as many of o stuntas possiblbu have a great stunt team in prague, but when i'm not able to jump off a bridge for production reasons, there's a guy. he's going to jump off the bridge for me and look like me. it's good, but i spent a lot of my time in ice packs at home with packs around my knees. it's tough. >> looking forward to an upcoming episode with bellamy young. >> yes, from "scandal." >> yes, the first lady. >> i got really lucky. she happened to be -- she happened to be taking a trip in europe when we were casting the role. and she was staying at my house in prague. and the producers called me and said, would bellamy maybe want to do an episode? and i asked her. we were out to dinner and she said, yes, oh, my god. you know bellamy is so crazy. and she stayed for a couple of weeks and shot the episode. it was amazing and a great transition from leaving my "scandal" family and having her

there and starting this new family. >> it really is a family you had with "scandal." >> we have a text chain that we probably, once a day someone texts something inappropriate. and funny and as every text chain is and we really get along and we support each other. henbrdw.dwyn is doing "network." i'm going to see him tomorrow night. i saw kerry in her performance. >> we have something interest that. she posted on social media. >> ah, yes, oh. [ applause ] >> that's me. >> bringing back the old days. >> me and my nose, there it is. >> what's that about? >> you know, that's just picking noses, i think. i wish there was more to it. it's that simple. >> and george said taking you back to the old days. well, you know, "grey's anatomy," they're about to become the longest running tv medical drama ever! >> how crazy is that. >> but -- you were on the show. >> i was on the show. >> so, what is your best memory from that? >> my best memory from that? >> i'm afraid to know it. >> my character died. it's not a spoiler because it

happened years ago. but they, for my death scene, they made a prosthetic head. scott foley's prosthetic head that they used to sort of cut into and intubate and do a bunch of things. and they still use that head. so, if any of you ever get a chance to act on "grey's anatomy," and you're in the operating room, you'll probably be operating on my head. >> what was it like when they say you're going to die? >> oh, man, it's never a good thing. i got a family to support. shonda rhimes said we loved you on the show, and i was so excited i thought something else was going to happen, but she said you got to die and, you know, you never complain to your -- i say, oh, i totally understand and went back to my trailer and i called my wife, i was like, i don't know what i'm going to do.>> you know wh, u'v on and have done very well. you've done pretty well. extremely well and it's "whiskey cavalier." it premieres tomorrow night at

10:00, 9:00 eastern right here on abc. make sure you check out scott foley, everybody. >> thank you. coming up, the family that is meeting five decades and the meeting has been five decades in the making. you don't want to miss the story of these four sisters. of these four sisters.

i had so much doubt in me. my current supervisor reached out on linkedin. we set up a phone interview and from there i was hired. linkedin was the matchmaker. we are back now with an incredible story, a dna test leading to a remarkable

discovery for four women learning that their similar looks were far more than just a coincidence. they're going to join us live in a moment. but first, here's their story. this is the photo nearly 50 years in the making. in the 1960s in seattle, washington, twins rochelle dyer and kristelle harrington grew up happy and healthy. adopted by loving parents when their birth mother couldn't take care of them. across the country in virginia beach, sisters lisa vann and shannon nicoll were born a few years after those twins and never suspected their family might be bigger than they thought. in 2004, in perhaps a divine twist of fate, rochelle moved to virginia beach herself, bizarrely enough becoming friends with women who knew shannon. everyone commenting on how the two looked alike. shannon and rochelle meeting once, posing for this photo together at a kenny chesney concert, but never thinking

their similarities might be anything but a coincidence. until last year, when rochelle took an ancestry.com test to look into her ethnicity and discovered dna matches. she made contact with a first cousin named tracy who gives her shocking but amazing news. she and her sister kristelle have two half-sisters, shannon and her sister, lisa. which brings us back to this photo. the four all meeting for the first time just 11 days ago. [ cheers and applause ] rochelle, kristelle, shannon, and lisa are joining us now. and you know what i love? you were grabbing the tissues already. getting ready to let it go. and as we heard in the piece, rochelle and kristelle, you both grew up in seattle. and lisa and shannon, you grew up in virginia beach. >> yes.

>> where rochelle, you now live. >> yes. >> in virginia beach and after all these years, there's no way you saw this coming. >> oh, no. >> not in a million years. >> you couldn't make it up. >> even when they said we looked alike, i just thought, you know, everybody has a twin out there so -- >> well, you do. [ laughter ] >> you actually do. >> and lisa and i had no idea at all that our mother had even given birth to twins in the past. >> she took the secret to her grave. >> and they knew that they were adopted all these years. so for us, it was pretty mind-blowing. so it wouldn't even have crossed our minds that we were really sisters. >> we knew we probably had siblings somewhere. >> you met less than two weeks ago, all four of you together so how was that first initial meeting with all four? >> amazing. >> amazing. >> like this. >> like we're together. yeah. now we haven't skipped a beat. >> no, we haven't. >> so what similarities do you notice? >> oh, our laughs. >> our laugh -- our kids -- my kids when we were at dinner and rochelle and i started laughing they both like put their hands over their mouths and were looking at each other. and, like, everybody thinks

that everybody looks like somebody, but li m so when i see her, it makes me think of her. >> go ahead. i'm sorry. >> her kids stared at me the >> they couldn't believe how much i looked like their grandmother and their mom and sadly she passed away a year and a half ago. so we didn't get to meet her. >> she never had a chance to see this reunion. >> well, she sees us. >> without a doubt. >> yeah. >> i know shannon and rochelle, you two met ten years ago. a friend said, oh, you look alike. and you were going to a kenny chesney concert. you took at the picture that we saw in the piece. what goes through your mind now knowing that you were sisters and didn't know it back then? >> i mean, we would have done things a little bit differently. >> it explains so much. >> it explains a lot. but the crazy thing was that the two friends that kept telling her that we looked alike were my childhood best friends. >> and i grew up across the -- lisa and i grew up across the

street from them. and so, here she is -- and i did my student teaching at the school where she teaches. but we weren't there at the same time. >> and, she just got remarried this summer where in washington state where i live and -- >> the best friends were there for the wedding and they were liking all the photos on facebook. what a pretty bride. >> they were liking them, oh, isn't that a pretty wedding? >> pretty bride. >> what a pretty bride. [ applause ] what a pretty bride. she looks like me. >> right? >> even though you guys you really have all just been together all four of you within the last two weeks, you can tell there is love here. but this, you know, a lot of emotions come with this. but it seems like complete love here. >> we've known each other forever. >> that's what it feels like. >> last night we were at dinner and we all started laughing. i just looked at everyone, i said three weeks ago we didn't even know you existed. we didn't know you and now look at us. >> you're lucky to get a word in edgewise. >> i kind of like it. makes my job easy.

i just sit here and let you go. [ applause ] so where do you go from here? what's in the future because you have kids and, you know, a lot of familiarity to bring together. >> holidays will be different. >> for us. with losing mom recently. she was thanksgiving. she was christmas. she was all of those things and made it everything. so there's been that void there. but now we feel like we have a piece of her. >> i may need a tissue in a second. you keep this up. >> yeah. >> it's hard with one of us being so far away. >> and we have our family that we grew up with, you know, and we have two younger brothers and -- >> which is such a great part of the story because to know that they had a good life. >> oh, we did. >> it is a great story. it's great to have the four of you here. we wish you continued love and everything for your family. >> thank you. >> thank you. > thank you for sharing this with us. >> thank you. >> really, really appreciate it. >> all right.

days. so let me just tell you about our show while holding ginger. we've got "deals & steals" plus singer/songwriter chase rice is performing right here so don't miss it. >> the microphones. you couldn't hear it. >> audio just fell over. coming up right here, we have got "grey's anatomy." and they'll talk about their onscreen romances. >> ooh. steamy.

love lives. since the very beginning. >> derek, meredith. >> reporter: the love lives of the doctors on grey's ana ana aa have kept fans' pulses racing. >> i'm in love with you. >> reporter: season 15 is no different. >> i love you, maggie. >> some of our favorite characters blissfully in love like joe and alex. onscreen husband and wife now so was camilla luddington charmed by him before joining the cast. >> no, alex was a jerk. >> it was all about mcdreamy. >> reporter: but those signature "grey's anatomy" love triangles. >> lesbian lover, baby daddy. >> reporter: are still causing hearts to skip a beat. >> she's pregnant. >> it's yours? >> this bombshell has been dropped in amongst them and owen and amelia were really in a good place, finally, which is kind of the horrible irony.

>> 15 years in we're doing a love triangle that was -- that's never really kind of been done this way and that's what's really great all these people are human and they all are making mistakes like we all are in the real world. >> reporter: and speaking of love triangles nearly 15 years after finding herself fighting for mcdreamy -- >> pick me. choose me. love me. >> reporter: meredith grey now choosing between two charming men. >> do you want to go to dinner tonight? >> are you asking me out? >> you are in a love triangle. >> reporter: fighting for her attention. >> he's a bit of a casanova. >> do you know what casanova's first name is? >> giacomo. >> that's right. i think there's something here. >> you know that if you break meredith's heart you'll hear from people. >> yeah. people will come to my door, i'm afraid. i'm trying not to break her heart for a lot of reasons, personal reasons. >> i see. does meredith find love? and in the end, does she need a man? >> well, i think the message we want to send for sure no woman really needs a man. i mean, men or women or partners

are nice, but we don't need them. ultimately, that's the message we want to convey and convey to our young fans that you don't need the approval of someone's love to make you whole or to make you matter. but i think love is fun. and i think love is ultimately what we're all doing on this planet. >> we need love, we don't necessarily need men, but we're counting down to the record-breaking night for "grey's anatomy." tomorrow on "gma" the cast dishes with me on their favorite episodes of all time so i want everybody to tweet us their favorite moments so we can share. >> so many to share. that's so much fun. and then, of course, more on "nightline" on this. and you guys can catch all the "grey's anatomy" drama right here on abc this thursday night, 8:00, 7:00 central, that was great fun. >> super fun. >> we'll be right back on "gma."
