An “incredibly harrowing 55 hours” followed as she was transported from Congo to a hospital in South Africa, which included being carried by hand and a six-hour motorbike ride.
Judd joined Kate Roberts and her podcast “Sex, Body & Soul” where she shared she almost didn’t make the journey.
“I don’t know how the mind and the body and the soul come together to manage to endure the unendurable,” she said. “I bit a stick, I screamed, I howled, I convulsed. I never did pass out — I wished that I could.”

Thankfully, Judd made it though. “As animalistic as I was, my mind was pretty skilled,” Judd told Roberts.
The experience has taught the “Double Jeopardy” star a lot about herself and lessons moving forward.
