Michael J. Fox has had Parkinson’s disease since 1991 and is well recognized for his optimistic view on life. The actor, who is renowned for his positive outlook, recently acknowledged that the year 2022 has been particularly difficult for him.
In an interview with People, he claimed, “I cracked my jaw, then my hand, then my shoulder, had a replacement shoulder put in, then broke my [right] arm, then I destroyed my elbow. “I shattered my [right] arm after having a replacement shoulder put in, and then I fractured my elbow.” She admitted that she was beginning to notice her advanced age more now that she was 61.

According to Michael, he is presently doing well and is taking all necessary precautions to protect himself from additional injury.
The main goal of the operation is to “avoid falling down.” I use all of those devices to prevent going down, whether it’s a walker, wheelchair, cane, or someone holding onto it with a belt around his waist. He was kind to do that.
Michael made this observation on his progress: “I’ve just just gotten to the stage where I can walk normally again. I like taking my own time and going for a walk by myself occasionally. It is. It’s a fantastic thing.
The well-known actor received the illness when he was only 29 years old; at the time, he had just wed Tracy Pollan.
Michael discussed his diagnosis with CBS Mornings, saying it was a painful and distressing reality for him to learn that he had Parkinson’s disease.
She was assigned this duty pretty early in the marriage, I believe. It was the final time the two of us sobbed together about it when I told her what I was discovering, he continued.
Since that time, no more people have cried over Parkinson’s. Simply said, we have improved the situation and continued with our lives. But when it happened for the first time, both of us started crying, “Michael recalled the incident to the host, Nate Burleson.
