Fans are moved to tears by Michael J. Fox’s final message.

Renowned actor and Parkinson’s disease advocate, Michael J. Fox, delivered an inspiring message at the SXSW Film Festival, reflecting on his journey seven years after publicly disclosing his Parkinson’s diagnosis. At the age of 61, Fox emphasized his refusal to let the disease define him, expressing a lack of luxury for self-pity. Despite facing challenges, he remains determined to fight Parkinson’s and inspire others in similar situations.

During the festival, Fox showcased his documentary titled “Still: A Michael J. Fox Film,” providing a nuanced look into both fictional and real aspects of his life. Rather than focusing solely on Parkinson’s, Fox aimed to depict life’s overall journey.

In 2013, Fox bravely revealed his Parkinson’s diagnosis, setting aside fears of judgment. He established The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research, dedicated to aggressively funding research for a cure. Fox’s foundation is at the forefront of advancing therapies and research programs.

Despite the difficulties, Fox remains optimistic, emphasizing the opportunity to learn and move forward instead of dwelling on self-pity.
