Having lived with PD and experienced its terrible symptoms, particularly tremor and anxiety, it seems like a "shock anti-miracle" for me to see a once combative, publicly confident and fiercely styled tv personality with strong character diagnosed with PD.

I wish him the best and hope that he is able to live a normal life
