7th Heaven

In 2002, Michael J. Fox’s memoir Lucky Man was published. It was not very well written or entertaining. It contained a lot about his acting career, and fight with Parkinson’s Disease. It was a dark read.  Pity and vulgar language about the disease.

Well, It is 2009. 7 years later. It is nice to say that he has found his voice in Always Looking Up: The Adventures of an Incurable Optimist. This book is not dark. Michael is still in quite a bite of pain. A recent picture had him shaking a leaf in the wind. Well, all that money that was spent on his brain surgery was down the drain. It not. He was a great foundation if you not familiar  with it that is still strong. The Micheal J. Fox Foundation. You can give online at www.michaeljfox.org. You do not have to give directly you can purchase some nice shirts from team Fox and the proceeds will go to research. Gratefully, President Obama overturned  terrible legislation that banned stem cells which help in many diseases. In experience with ALS, Parkinson’s Diease, Eplipesy and Cancer,  these cells are a must. That is the major thing that President Obama has done right in his short presidency. Amen.

That is not why this book is 7th Heaven. It is because it is light. He is focused on his family and is grateful.

Most importantly,he has a beautiful tribute to both Karen Lang and Christopher Reeve.

Seven years later it is safe to say that Michael J. Fox is indeed a man, actor, activist, brother, friend and writer.

Welcome to 7th Heaven.
