What a fighter and inspiring man MJ Fox is! It's hard to believe that he's been diagnosed three decades (!) ago and then goes on stage and delivers such a great 13-minute speech - even taking his shaking hand with humor. His achievement in funding Parkinson's research goes way beyond any honor in existence.

Brilliant speech. Those of us who grew up in the 80's remember 80's famous. Michael has achieved a lot in life, some of the most memorable movies ever made. A loving family and a wonderful wife. But you don't realise until you hear him talk what a cracking sense of humour he has. This speech was both funny and moving. He has met Parkinson's head on, and it does not, and has not, ever defined who he is. Michael is still the same person he always was, and his willingness to help others is a testament to who he is as a person. Good man

Michael J Fox not only has that, but respect from both his peers in the entertainment business and anyone and everyone that understands what they are going through, but will still love them all the same. Thank you for your courage and example to millions of others that suffer the same disease globally.

He said not long ago when asked about Tracy and their 35 year marriage, I'd be dead " meaning I couldn't have made it without her love, support, and everything she's done. Love them both and all of their kids. They're such a beautiful & supportive family. Michael certainly deserves this award! ❤️

I'll tell you a story about a similar situation in my life. 2 childhood friends fought as teens and the more brilliant and promising of the 2 ended up in a year long coma and with a severe traumatic brain injury. The prognosis was "he'll never wake up". He did. Then, " he'll never talk". He did with great difficulty. Then, " he'll never walk". He did with great difficulty. Then, he won't be able to take care of himself". He did. And not only that, he returned to university in our town and earned his doctorate and for years he was tenured mathematics professor. He was killed riding his inline bicycle on the way to campus a few years ago. He was an amazing guy and I admired him and I will always tell people about him. We were fast friends to the end. Thanks for reading this.

Honestly seen in happen in the span of a year and it’s awful, but the guy was still out there cutting his families grass and paying for groceries and living his best life with his wife and two sons. Honestly didn’t even realize he had it until I had seen him about a month prior on my way from work back home cutting grass, and then at work he was there with his family and that when I realized he had the disease.

He knew he couldn’t give up because he has the privilege and finances to help others like him.

[@sheilarough236]

A movie he made when he was young, several people who worked on the movie later developed Parkinson’s, which leads to believe that there might be an environmental connection, especially since he was so young when he was diagnosed, not even 30. Parkinson’s usually doesn’t start showing symptoms until patients are in their 60’s

Thank you for your vulnerability in your comment. Most of us live our lives distracted with entertainment or chores and not thinking about the temporary nature of our lives-almost thinking we are eternal creatures. But in reality everyone from young people to elderly people are vulnerable to death. It’s a reality that death is part of life just as birth is. I guess knowing we will eventually die can make us treat ourselves and others with compassion and kindness. We can appreciate our lives more knowing the fleeting nature of it. Happy Holidays to you Emmanuel

[@Cangaca777]

Death is a great compassion. My only 'problem' is how little time we have. I think 200 years or even 300 is a good lifetime period for a person to have, 80/90 years is just not enough imo. but living here forever? nah, I wouldn't want that.

Hes suffered through this horrid disease along time, he was as he said unsure of its progression, it was very fast for my father (15 yrs), it was soul, spirit, mind, and emotionally crushing, MJ Fox has such humor and grace dealing with it, he gave me hope, and he is a inspiration. Im so glad he has such wonderful powerful support, end stage Parkinson's is not anything I wish anyone to have to go through, and the family having to watch the final rapid decline.

Legend, icon, super human. Just some of the words I use to describe Michael J. Fox. A well deserved award for an awesome man! Rock on Michael J. Fox!!!!

Gosh he actually made me tear up. Such an inspiration, legend and great actor. I supported someone with Parkinson so know the daily struggles but seeing him up there is beautiful.

What a sense of humor-- and perpetual inspiration. I'm not a Parkinson's sufferer, but I'm an elliptic and my right hand shakes a lot too: I have actually looked at my hand and said "stop it/can you not??" the exact same way Michael does. His work will always mean so much to me, as someone who has a condition where the science is also ahead of the money. Instead of looking for cures, the focus is on *managing* it. Generations to follow us deserve a world where there are *cures* for these conditions.

My sister has PD and she looks up to Michael J Fox as a mentor. She has the biggest heart of anyone I know. MJF Keep up the great work and let's kick PD out of existence in YOUR Lifetime!

[@adamw9764]

With everything he is going through, what an incredible speech

I have a grandpa with Parkinson’s, it’s uncanny how both of these guys have a great sense of humor of life. Michael J Fox has helped so many in this community, if I could I would consistently thank him for what he has done.
