Description

In this Apple TV documentary actor Michael J. Fox shares his life from childhood to the present day and the harsh realities of living with Parkinson's disease. Anyone of a certain age knows Fox first and foremost as Alex P. Keaton, the precocious young Republican teen on Family Ties in the 1980's. He then graduated to full movie star status as Marty McFly in Back to the Future. America fell in love with him. At 29 he was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease which he kept a secret for 7 years. He then turned his focus to his family and raising money for Parkinson's research, raising over 2 billion dollars so far. Fox's ability to stay focused and positive with the love and support of his wife Tracey Pollan and his children is remarkable. This is an uplifting story in a time when such a thing is hard to find.
