(ANSA) - NEW YORK, NOV 19 - Michael J. Fox is ready to retire for the second time: "And if this marks the end of my career, so be it", writes Marty McFly of "Back to Future "in his fourth memoir," No TimeLike the Future: An Optimist Considers Mortality ", released this week in the United States.
Fox explains that Parkison's course is just one of the reasons why he has decided to stop acting: "I am starting to find it difficult to pronounce words and repeat them one after the other, but these are just the latest ripple in the needle of my problems. ", explains the actor in the memoir.
According to Fox there are reasons for the new problems he has in memorizing: age, the constant distractions of the disease and his cognitive problems.
"I read them as a message, an indicator", writes Ma for the star of "Family Ties" "there is a time for everything. A 12-hour day of work, memorizing seven pages of dialogue are now behind me, at least for now, "the 59-year-old actor continues in the book.
Everything for Fox "could obviously change because everything can change. But this is my second pension".
The actor had already retired once for reasons of health: in 2000, a few years after his first diagnosis, he had given up the lead role in the sitcom "Spin City" while continuing to play minor roles in series such as "Scrubs", " Rescue Me "," The Good Wife "and" Curb Your Enthusiasm ".
Between 2013 and 2014 he returned to work on his own comedy series, "The Michael J. Fox Show".
A few days ago Fox opened up with People by telling about his thirty-year battle with Parkinson's that was discovered when he was only 29 years old.
Most recently, in 2018, the actor had been operated on for a non-cancerous spinal tumor and had to relearn how to walk.
