– Michael J. Fox on Staying Positive After Terrible Loss: ‘She’d Never Add Up the Losses’

Beloved actor Michael J. Fox has faced a long and difficult journey with Parkinson’s disease since his diagnosis in 1991. In 1998, he made the brave decision to go public with his condition, using his platform to become a prominent advocate for Parkinson’s awareness and research.

Throughout his battle, Fox has drawn strength from his family, particularly his late mother, Phyllis. Her recent passing at the age of 92 has added another layer of personal loss to his ongoing struggles, but her memory continues to inspire him in his advocacy efforts.
