Instagram/sumitjenny “I feel like it’s more about Jenny losing strength in her backbone and neck and all … her spine, which is making it difficult for Jenny to balance while she’s walking or doing anything,” he explained. Singh said he had hopes that she could go back to America to receive better treatment than they could get in India — where Slatten moved to marry him — but his visa hasn’t been approved and they both don’t want Slatten to travel without him. Their worry is that once she’s in the US and receiving treatment, she might not be able to return to India. Singh noted how his wife also now had a lot of trouble walking and balancing.
