WrestleZone.com reader Mister sent along the following …
TNA Knockout SoCal Val joined Mister Saint Laurent on MLW Radio presented by BarberShopWindow.com, the official podcast of Major League Wrestling. Val has struggled with an immune system deficiency most of her life and opened up about it on the show.
“I was home schooled from the 4th grade on because I have a really bad immune system. A lot of people don’t know that. It’s really easy for me to get sick. I lose my voice quite a bit. I’m pretty much always not feeling 100%. It’s very rare for me to say ‘Wow, nothing’s wrong.’ There’s always some kind of something going on with me.”
“I had mono for several weeks when I was five years old and it really weakened my immune system. Now it’s pretty much called ‘Epstein Barr’ and/or ‘Chronic Fatigue’ [syndrome]. My immune system is really bad. I’m not like the boy in the bubble like some people like to joke, but if somebody has a cold, I’m going to get it. Being a kid in school, I’d get Scarlet fever and strep throat several times.”
