Michael J Fox is a good person. He is wealthy and could just sit in his mansion but he doesn't. He goes out and cares about other people. I think this disease has helped to show us the real Michael J Fox.

He's not just "proud" and "raising awareness". He actually uses his fortune to seek for the cure. That's the difference between building your reputation and actually doing something.

Every once in a while there is a person who reminds us that it is possible for someone to act with courage and generosity in the face of a real crisis. The world is a far better place because Michael J. Fox is a part of it. We have much to learn from his example. We all have at least one reason to be grateful. Thank you, Michael.

My old friend Joe told me something that still sticks with me this day. Any time I'm having a bad day, or thinking my life sucks, I always think back to what he said to me. "Tony, just when you think your life is bad, just remember, someone else out there has it worse." Your worst life could be another's fairytale. I also wish we lived in a world without diseases or ailments. 😔

There are so many things that I wish, want to do in the future. Your honesty, dedication, as well as perseverance in fighting this disease is inspirational to me. I mean that very sincerely. I've just had my second grandchild, and look so forward to spending quality time with them. Please keep posting updates on the progress of this fight against the disease. I greatly appreciate all that you are doing and wish you and your family nothing but love and prayers. Thank you so very much! Thank-you.

My dad was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 2011 when he was 45. He said it was a relief when he finally had is diagnosis, it was an answer to his struggles he’d had over the past decade. What’s especially sad about his story though is that he’s a musician. He started playing guitar as a teenager and formed a band in college. He was the lead singer and songwriter, they’re band released an album, he played gigs often. He started getting symptoms in his 30s, until eventually he couldn’t play anymore. What a heartbreaking thing, to have your passion taken away like that. He’s about to turn 53. He still struggles with Parkinson’s, but he has a medication routine that works for him. He got the band back together again, they’re playing shows regularly and are also in the studio working on recording they’re second album, fulfilling his life long dream of producing a vinyl. I’ve never seen him so happy. I’m so proud of my father. He even has a KZfaq channel where you can see his story as a musician with Parkinson’s, called Drew Abides

I was diagnosed last year at 45 and one of the things I fear most is not being able to do the things I love...running, painting/drawing...It is inspiring and motivating to hear that your dad is playing music again. I hope the same goes for me, that the medicine works and I can keep on doing what I love.

Only thing I slightly regret about this video is that since Michael is such a legend, all these people had to be high profile people (pharma executives, physicists, artists yada yada) so it's not representative of what normal people with financial struggles go through when they have to deal with Parkinson's, but apart from that it was still a very good insight, and a very raw and efficient documentary. Thank you guys.

My father died January 25 this year. To watch the way he slowly lost his movement left haunting memories in me as a kid and teenager. No one should have to watch their loved one lose control the way my father did. Heck, just watching this video make me choke up because of the way they're all moving. It was just like my dads movement when I was a kid. I'm heartbroken that he won't be able to see my kids and be a grandpa (I'm only 23) but I'll be sure to let them know what an amazing dad he was before and during his struggle with Parkinson's.

It sucks, there are nights I am afraid I won't wake up, I was DX with the issue at 30 and I use to run 6 miles a day, now I can barely get out of bed at 33, you all give me courage to keep going with my medical issue and I thank you. I pray for a cure for you all, I will donate money as well for you all. Doctors told me to not worry and do not stress but I am like how do you expect me not to be stressed?

I've never looked for videos on how other people deal with all of this. It's a struggle at times to know this will never go away. I tend to lay in bed and think it's all in my head.

I live in the UK, am 42 and was diagnosed with a Dystonic tremor in my left hand 4 years ago, since then the tremor has spread to my right leg. This feels like such a lonely condition, no one can really understand but a fellow sufferer. The life I took for granted suddenly changed beyond recognition. I've cried, I've yelled. I've been afraid and I've been stubborn. I've wanted to get out there and at the same time curl up and not face the world. Thank you Michael J Fox for being so honest and brave in telling the world about your condition. For starting your foundation, working tirelessly to find a cure and spread awareness and understanding. You have made a huge difference to the world, to the lives of every one of your fellow sufferers.

Christine Bourke , Good grief, such a rote religious attitude is so annoying. Haven't the sick suffered enough already without having to listen to this kind of reply? And the Lord His Father (sic) **gave ** each sufferer the disease as the unquestionable Part of His Plan, so what's the point of praying to Him to go... "ooops, sorry, I guess I boo-booed, better undo this guy's disease; but you know, the next guy I give it to is REALLY gonna cop it"... The whole notion of religious mumbo jumbo makes a mockery of suffering, and a mockery of being human. I lose my temper with people who keep asking "why me?". Hell's bells, why *not* me? It's disease we should loathe and kick in the teeth, with a fix, not a prayer. Or else next you'll be saying medicine itself is against God's Plan. Gawd !! Please stop. Either help the sick with something that works, or at least don't hinder, by LOSING THE PAP. Thank you.

I've donated last year and will donate this year. If anyone can organize a foundation to find a cure and improve lives of people who have it, then it's Michael J Fox and his foundation.

My husband has Parkinson's and he is only 59 years old. The medicine he is on is so expensive. He just started on Neupro patch. I really hope it will help aid in his symptoms. He is very sensitive to medications and had a severe reaction to the last prescription the neurologist put him on. His health has really failed in the last 3 weeks in his motor skills. Yes, he and I both were in denial when the neurologist first diagnosed him this April. We are struggling right now. We are both Christians, so I do believe in prayer. We pray and we believe that God is in control of this disease. I too am learning. I am trying to access anything I can learn on Parkinson's to be a good caretaker to my husband. It hurts me to watch him go through all this. He is my soulmate and when he is struggling; I struggle. God Bless everyone that is going through this, because this is not an easy disease to deal with. This video was done very well.

I'm going through what I think is a hard time in my life, I'm on the verge of losing my home through foreclosure and I have a major family issue that needs to be resolved in the worst way and a whole host of other issues that I consider major! How selfish, insensitive and heartless of me to feel this way. What I’m going through is NOTHING compared to what the people in this video are going through. My mother used to tell me “No matter how hard you think your life is, there are people that would trade places with you in a nanosecond.” A heartfelt thank you for SLAPPING me back into reality. I will do what I can to assist anyone with this horrible disease!

My husband was just diagnosed and only retired last year at 65. I thought it was a stroke, however, now we know he has PIGD type of Parkinson's. I've gone through dozens of video's to learn more. I love this one the best showing that it effects many occupations/lifestyles for both men and women. I particularly liked your statement (I paraphrase here) that "...it's not about being punished but it's scientifically caused". Thank you Michael J. Fox and your foundation for all you do to find not only a cure but searching for what the heck triggers this debilitating disease. Even though our journey has just begun we are not traveling alone or uninformed.

Seeing someone shake neurologically is really sad and scary. I find out about people who make bad jokes about Michael J. Fox and Parkinson's disease here on KZfaq. Never ever let that be unheard of. People used to be rude and discriminatory to me because of my autism. A person who acts disrespectful about somebody with a disorder is uneducated without a debate. Even somebody with a disability is smarter than someone without a disability that mistreats somebody with a disability. One thing that makes me really mad is that it doesn't seem as if the law will ever require everybody who plans to have a job that involves leadership to take a test on the truth about disabilities and to answer every question on that test correctly in order to pass. Nobody should get away with hurting somebody with a disability. When I want the law to say something that should matter to everybody without an exception but doubt that it will happen, I have to be furious. The problem is, I don't think anybody listens to me when I say something he or she has to know about.

My aunt passed last year from Parkinsons. I'm not sure how long she had it but at least a couple of decades, as far as I can remember through my 25+ years she always had it. She was such a happy and active person nonetheless. It was always fun to visit cause she had all these great toys, model trains and even a pinball game made out of wood. And her cooking and baking was to die for. But I also remember all the times her husband had to help her when she started trembling while holding a coffee cup or something similar. Absolutely horrible disease.
