Michael J Fox

 

Updated: 18/04/2007

Not to get involved with the present slur of Michael J fox and his battle with Parkinson's. I have left enough comments on Digg website that voice my reaction to the pathetic attack.

This link may be worth a read (as it speaks for itself).

Hopefully the publicity (good or bad) will help with the exposure of the disease.


As some of you may be aware Michael J Fox suffers from Parkinson's disease. This same disease took the life of my Father on 20th July 2005. My Father (Tommy Ryan) suffered the effects of Parkinson's since approx 1991(when he was officially diagnosed).

Parkinson's has been in the lime light due to its more famous sufferers. The late Pope (John Paul II), Michael J Fox and Muhammad Ali.

 

 

The reason I have added a section for Michael, is he is an active campaigner in finding a cure of this terrible disease. I am both a fan of his work and his courage in fighting this disease.
