Title: Michael Fox on Oprah
Post by: G-Ma on April 02, 2009, 12:17:04 PM: I am just watching this show, believe it was on last night. I really don't want to feel sorry for myself on Dialysis after watching Michael. I used to watch the shows he and his wife were on years ago. I really admire how he is dealing with Parkisons and many of his statements I know we can relate to. He said he doesn't know from day to day or even hour to hour how he will feel or what he can do. I know I can't plan ahead very far because who knows. I just kind of go day to day most times.

Post by: Stacy Without An E on April 03, 2009, 12:00:47 AM: I've been a huge Michael J. Fox for as long as I can remember. I spent my teenage years watching him on "Family Ties" and my favorite series of films has to be "Back to the Future."

I was sorry to hear about his diagnosis but he handles it with grace and dignity.

I wish I could say the same for myself.
