Jenny Slatten, the 68-year-old fan favorite from90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way, is facing a difficult chapter in her ALS battle. According to an update posted on her GoFundMe by friend Penny, Jenny is“getting weaker by the day.”She’s currently taking Edaravone and Riluzole, two medications designed to slow the progression of ALS, along with B12, melatonin, and magnesium. Both ALS medications leave her very tired, and Jenny, who lost her ability to speak in August, rarely talks now because it causes her pain.
Through all of it, her husband Sumit Singh, 38, has become her main caregiver and her voice. Penny shared that Sumit“is doing a great job each day,”and that acupuncture and holistic services have shown some promise for Jenny’s mobility and fatigue. Jenny was diagnosed with ALS in December 2025 after roughly a year of symptoms, and she went public with her diagnosis in May.
The couple launched a GoFundMe to cover medical care because Jenny has no medical insurance in India, and she chose not to put the financial burden on her three daughters in the United States. If you’d like to support, the fundraiser and updates are available through her official channels.
