À propos de cet audio

In September 1998, Michael J. Fox stunned the world by announcing he had been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease: a degenerative neurological condition. In fact, he had been secretly fighting it for seven years. The worldwide response was staggering. Fortunately, he had accepted the diagnosis, and by the time the public started grieving for him, he had stopped grieving for himself. With the same passion, humor, and energy that Fox has invested in his dozens of performances, he tells the story of his life, his career, and his campaign to find a cure for Parkinson's.

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

So enjoyable

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.

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.

Amazing Account of the Unthinkable
