À propos de cet audio
Combining 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. Most importantly, however, he writes of the last 10 years, during which, with the unswerving support of his wife, family, and friends, he has dealt with his illness. He talks about what Parkinson's has given him: the chance to appreciate a wonderful life and career, and the opportunity to help search for a cure and spread public awareness of the disease. He is a very lucky man, indeed.

Enjoyed this book..For the most part realistic but a bit overdescriptive at times. Not sure about that dream sequence..I guess that is Holywood

Lucky Man
This was a well written easy to listen factual story of a persons life. Yes, he is a celebrity, but in life he is real person, too. The events of his life and the way he describes it, was very touching and moving to any individual who is suffering from this disease. He shows gratefulness and such down to earth qualities of an amazing person in life. Even though he has this horrible disease, he rises above it and gives credit to his wife and family. It’s an amazing book.

Amazing Account of the Unthinkable
Michael J. Fox gives a compelling and honest account of his diagnosis. He tells of his denial of the diagnosis and how he fought his demons.
This is an incredible story from despair of the diagnosis to the fight to bring awareness of Parkinson’s and raising money for research.
A wonderful read and compelling account. I definitely recommend this book.
