Many of us smile when we remember the movies and TV shows where we first saw Michael J. Fox. His entertainment has kept us happy for decades, even though he has had Parkinson’s disease for a long time.
In the early 1990s, he was told he had Parkinson’s disease and started to speak out for people who have the disease. He thinks he won’t make it to 80 years old because it’s gotten so bad over the past few years.
More than 61 years old is going to be the best case scenario for most people with Parkinson’s. We thought he would do better for a long time, but now he says it’s getting harder.
“I’m not going to lie,” he said. This is getting harder and harder. Things are getting harder.
“It gets harder every day.” But, but, that’s just how things are. Who should I talk to about that, you know?”
He also talked about the recent surgery he had to remove a growth from his spine. Even though the growth was harmless, it has made him more likely to fall. He broke his arms, elbow, face, and hand because of this.
He then said that people with Parkinson’s die WITH Parkinson’s, not FROM it. He then said, “I’ve been thinking about how important it is to die.” I’m not going to be 80. “I’m not going to be 80.”
Fox has recently talked about how much pain he is in, saying that each wave feels like a big earthquake.
It’s not so much the moving that hurts as the not moving. It happens when you freeze, and that not-movement gets filled with energy, turning into a burning, looming thing that never happens.
“Please don’t bring out the violins.” I hurt my hand, arm, shoulder, face, humerus, and another humerus. All of that is made worse by the electricity from the tremors. That’s why it does hurt a lot. You learn, though, that no one cares. Life is like that. It’s not important. You deal with it and move on. It could also hold a story. But only that. You can’t show a window a chit to get your money back.
