Lucky Man a memoir by Michael J. Fox
This is a most excellent book. Some quotes....
"Whatever anyone else thinks about me is none of my business"
"By being all things to all people all the time, I could end up being nothing to myself"
"Throughout my life, I've made a habit of somehow salvaging victory at the very threshold of ignominious failure."
"The bad news side of the doctor's desk."
"By-the-book coping process: Elisabeth Kubler-Ross's five stages of grief (denial/isolution, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance); my most trying personhal experience reduced to a common laundry list by some Swiss woman I've never met."
"Exasperation, frustration and fear were my constant companions in those early days, but I never once found myself resorting to blame."
"The ten years since my diagnosis have been the best ten years of my life, and I consider myself a lucky man."
