    25 years and Michael has survived, he's a great role model for keep on keeping on with Parkinson's.

    Worked with him on a Pepsi commercial during the height of his popularity in the 80’s. Good guy… no airs, no attitude… I was always so sorry to see his progression with Parkinson’s but admired his courage to do what he could to be a spokesperson and a role model for other sufferers.

    Impressive interview. Smart guy, and his head is drilled on right. Can’t have been easy, then or for all these years, but he’s still doing what he can to help others, from what I’ve seen.

    My grandfather had Parkinson's which later in life was joined by Lewy Body Dementia. I've always liked how Michael has stated that the end goal of the MJF Foundation is to go out of business because they've found a cure. Also check out his cookbooks, he writes them using his wife's last name as Michael Pollan.

    • @prettyuglymonster

      No, Michael Pollan is Tracy's older brother, a food writer, and is Michael J.Fox's brother-in-law.

    He is a living lighthouse to those who think it’s better to hide from the rest of the world in their illness. One day I would love Parkinson’s to be also called “J. Fox” syndrome, in praise of a man, who has been facing it every single day with honesty and humbleness, and humour.

    Um ser humano, temente a Deus, não sabe oque pensar ,diante de tantos sofrimentos em uma só pessoa.
    Só revolta e resignação diante de algo assim.
    Nada nos resta a não ser ficar triste e aceitar.
    E saber que tem tanta gente fisicamente perfeita, que não vale a merda que defeca no vaso.
