Guest guest Posted July 25, 2009 Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 Hi everyone, I am sitting here watching a show I recorded on my dvr a couple of weeks ago. J Fox-Adventures of an Incurable Optimist. It ran on TLC and it may be on again at some point. If you notice it, take the hour and watch it. It's really quite wonderful. As you know Mr. Fox suffers from Parkinsons disease an incurable, progressive nervous system disorder. I had an uncle who died from Parkinsons. It's of course very different from pulmonary fibrosis but the basic ideas of coping with chronic illness and the role of mental attitude are the same. At one point he talks about how the only thing he can't choose is whether to have Parkinsons, everything else is up to him. Just wanted to mention it...it's alot of good food for thought!
