Jerika Bolen had been suffering with Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 2, a genetic disease that affects the nerves that control muscle movement, since she was a baby. She never walked and has been in constant pain recently even after having 30 surgeries, some of which were meant to reduce her pain. In July, Jerika announced she would enter hospice and stop fighting. #InsideEdition
