  • Title: Michael J. Fox and his Parkinson's disease.
    Author: Kempster PA.
    Journal: Mov Disord; 2004 Jan; 19(1):105-6. PubMed ID: 14743369.
    Abstract:
    Michael J. Fox was a popular and successful film and television comic actor who developed Parkinson's disease at the age of 29 years. His recently published book, Lucky Man, structured around the story of his Parkinson's disease, is an amusing, briskly paced yet introspective memoir that covers the first 40 years of his life. Although quite anecdotal, it contains interesting observations on the preclinical phase of the disorder, evolution of motor fluctuations, and tactics for pharmacological treatment.
