A Time of Challenges

At the same time, she took a break from her acting career due to a disagreement with the producers of “Designing Women.” It was during this period that fans began to notice her weight gain. What many didn’t know was that Burke was battling hypoglycemia, which led to the increase in weight. Eventually, she was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.
Fighting Through Together

Throughout this challenging time, McRaney stood steadfastly by her side, ensuring she took her medication and cared for herself.
