No, it's not ok. Michael J. Fox has Parkinson's an uncontrollable disease he can't help it. And, to make cruel jokes about it is being rather selfish and insensitive why would someone joke about something like that is beyond me. That is just cruel I can't believe someone would do such a thing.

I think it all depends on how MJF feels about it, but if he can crack a joke about it, the I don't see why others couldn't. Yes its a serious condition, but if you can't laugh about the tough stuff you'll never be able to get through it sane.

U either laugh or cry or get mad, I'd rather laugh. What do u call someone with no arms or legs in a pile of leaves Russel. In the water bob, on the wall art, on the front porch ,mat, blah blah blah

I am so proud of what he has accomplished with his disease. He is a trail blazer for the illness for others.
