\u201cI always thought I was on a reality show, like I was in a documentary, but only God would see it and disapprove,\u201d Blair says in the trailer. \u201cI would like it to be as dramatic as I am. I was told to make plans for dying. Not because I have MS, but because I\u2019m fighting MS \u2026 I feel like I\u2019m in that Tom Hanks movie where he\u2019s stranded on an island.\u201d<\/p>\n
