In an interview airing Thursday evening, Ann Romney told “Entertainment Tonight’s” Nancy O’Dell that her multiple sclerosis does flare up from time to time if she’s tired, and that it happened just before Super Tuesday. “There have been some days, like the day before Super Tuesday, I was quite fatigued and I knew I couldn’t quit. I didn’t tell anybody I was tired,” Romney said. “I just kept going, I kept going. I had a little bit of a scare.”

Romney explained further what happens in such cases:

What happens with me is that I start to almost lose my words. I almost can’t think. I can’t get my words out. I start to stumble a little bit and so those things were happening and I thought, “Uh oh, big trouble.”
