Michael J. Fox confesses feelings to his wife of 34 years, who supports and kisses him despite his illness.
“My best life now is I enjoy my family so much” Michael J. Fox now enjoys life despite anything.
Actor Michael J. Fox became an ’80s film sensation with his roles in “Back to the Future” and “Family Ties.” But besides his fame as a film star, the now-retired actor is also highly recognized for his involvement in the advocacy of Parkinson’s disease.
Fox has suffered from the disease for decades now, after he started displaying symptoms of early-onset Parkinson’s disease in 1991 while filming “Doc Hollywood.” He was diagnosed shortly after.
After years of raising awareness and funds for the research of the disease, the actor was recently awarded the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences 13th Annual Governors Award.
He received the award from Woody Harrelson, who noted that despite suffering from the illness for so long, Fox never saw himself as a victim, instead facing his challenges face-on and raising over a billion dollars through his foundation.
