Michael J. Fox joined an iconic band on stage during their headline set at Glastonbury
Michael J. Fox joined Coldplay for their Glastonbury set. (BBC)It seems as though there wasn’t a dry eye in the field, and the same went for those watching at home.One viewer wrote: “Coldplay bringing out Michael J Fox, baaaaawling.”Another said: “Am I crying in the middle of the night watching a Coldplay gig? I might, yes.”A third added: “Michael J Fox getting his moment at Glastonbury with Coldplay. What a legend.”
Fans absolutely loved the moment. (BBC)
He said: “It’s very complicated. I’ve said Parkinson’s is a gift. It’s the gift that keeps on taking, but it has changed my life in so many positive ways.”The Stuart Little star has been very candid in the past about how Parkinson’s has affected his life.The 62-year-old previously spoke about how life was ‘getting harder’ since his diagnosis – with him breaking bones in his body and almost losing a finger due to an infection.He’d told CBS Sunday Morning in April that he didn’t think he’d live to be 80.“[Parkinson’s is] banging on the door. I’m not gonna lie. It’s gettin’ hard, it’s gettin’ harder. It’s gettin’ tougher. Every day it’s tougher. But, that’s the way it is.” he said.Adding: “You don’t die from Parkinson’s. You die with Parkinson’s. So I’ve been thinking about the mortality of it … I’m not gonna be 80. I’m not gonna be 80.”However, it seems that Fox has accepted the possibility of death.
“One day I’ll run out of gas,” he said. “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.
