It’s something a lot of my family members suspected in AB for a while. His movements are really similar to the way my Dad’s disease progressed.
Good on him for making it public. It’s a hard thing to talk about seeing your heroes be open about it goes a long way in normalising the conversation with your own friends and family affected by it.
It’s such a shit condition to have, especially as it goes on.
