He was just 29 when he was diagnosed
Hollywood star Michael J. Fox has opened up about his thoughts on his own mortality in a revealing interview where he discussed living with - and realising he would die with - Parkinson's. The 61 year old makes the heartbreaking acknowledgement that he doesn’t expect to reach his 80th birthday due to the disease.
A preview of his CBS Sunday Morning interview has shown him stating: "My life is set up so...I can pack Parkinson's along with me if I have to.” The actor goes on to explain that the disease made him reassess his approach to life and states: "You don’t die from Parkinson's. You die with Parkinson’s.”He goes on to explain that those suffering from the disease are at risk of injuries, like falling, choking, or getting sick with a cold which can, in turn, prove fatal.
He said: “The idea of a biomarker… a way to identify the disease before the disease is present. “By the time I was diagnosed, I had a little twitch in my pinky but...with this, we can identify the disease really early and help progression and essentially cure ahead of the game." "Every day is tougher. But, but that's — that's the way it is." A documentary titled Still: A Michael J. Fox Movie is due to air on Apple TV+ next month and will show the Back to the Future actor exploring and discussing his condition.
