I have always admired actor Michael J Fox. I grew up watching the reruns of Family Ties and there was always just something special about him. I was so sad years ago to learn of his Parkinson's diagnosis. My grandmother died with Parkinson's and I saw firsthand what a terrible illness this is. Fox could have given up his place in the acting world and sunk away to deal with his illness on his own with this family. Instead he has created a foundation and advocated for a cure.
Always Looking Up is his most recent book. I enjoyed the divisions in the book with each section being written about certain parts of his life. The central theme of a hope for a cure ties each piece of the book together. I'm curious now to read some of his other books so they've been added to my never ending list.
Lastly, Fox's current family dog is named Daisy... This made me smile big time...
