I just wanted to paste something here...I was looking through the episode guide of Little House when Shannen was on it...and the first episode she did of Season 9...said this about her
Shannen Doherty (Jenny Wilder) once said that when she was 9 years old (2 years before this episode aired), her mother suffered a brain aneurysm, and her father had a massive stroke the following year. Nearly losing both her parents in such a short time period prompted her to close herself off from her classmates, so in that sense, Doherty connected with her character's plight in this episode
And other quote from the episode of Marvin's Garden
This episode represents what was most likely Shannen Doherty's most demanding acting job as Jenny Wilder on the show. She had to stutter, limp, and exhibit physical and emotional deficiencies in the wake of an accident--and many would agree that she pulled it off well.
