Now, with the same passion, humor, and energy that Fox has invested in his dozens of performances over the last 18 years, he tells the story of his life, his career, and his campaign to find a cure for Parkinsons.Ĭombining his trademark ironic sensibility and keen sense of the absurd, he recounts his life - from his childhood in a small town in western Canada to his meteoric rise in film and television which made him a worldwide celebrity. Fortunately, he had accepted the diagnosis and by the time the public started grieving for him, he had stopped grieving for himself. In fact, he had been secretly fighting it for seven years. Fox stunned the world by announcing he had been diagnosed with Parkinsons disease - a degenerative neurological condition. "If you were to rush in to this room right now and announce that you had struck a deal-with God, Allah, Buddha, Christ, Krishna, Bill Gates, whomever-in which the ten years since my diagnosis could be magically taken away, traded in for ten more years as the person I was before, I would, without a moment's hesitation, tell you to take a hike." - Michael J.
