Michael J. Fox has explained why he doesn’t fear death in light of his 30-year struggle with Parkinson’s disease.The actor, who was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 1991, aged 29, was asked if anything scares him during an interview with Town & Country.“Anything that would put my family in jeopardy,” Fox said, referring to his wife Tracy Pollan and their four children.When asked about if he feared for his own life, he replied: “One day I’ll run out of gas. One day I’ll just say, ‘It’s not going to happen.
I’m not going out today.’ If that comes, I’ll allow myself that. I’m 62 years old.“Certainly, if I were to pass away tomorrow, it would be premature, but it wouldn’t be unheard of. And so, no, I don’t fear that.”The actor also reflected on the string of injuries he has endured over recent years, including breaking his arm, his shoulder and his hand.“My hand got infected and then I almost lost it,” Fox added.
