August 14, 201412 yr Might be a little cliche, but I just watched Patch Adams again. "They helped me realize that by helping them, I could forget about my own problems". The quote has a little different meaning now.
August 14, 201412 yr https://www.yahoo.com/movies/wife-robin-williams-had-parkinsons-disease-his-94744481702.html After days of intense speculation about Robin Williams’s private struggles in the wake of his suicide, his widow, Susan Schneider, on Thursday made a stunning revelation: the comic had recently been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. “Robin spent so much of his life helping others. Whether he was entertaining millions on stage, film or television, our troops on the frontlines, or comforting a sick child — Robin wanted us to laugh and to feel less afraid,” Schneider said in a statement released via her husband’s publicist. “Since his passing, all of us who loved Robin have found some solace in the tremendous outpouring of affection and admiration for him from the millions of people whose lives he touched. His greatest legacy, besides his three children, is the joy and happiness he offered to others, particularly to those fighting personal battles. "Robin’s sobriety was intact and he was brave as he struggled with his own battles of depression, anxiety as well as early stages of Parkinson’s disease, which he was not yet ready to share publicly," she continued. "It is our hope in the wake of Robin’s tragic passing, that others will find the strength to seek the care and support they need to treat whatever battles they are facing so they may feel less afraid.”
August 14, 201412 yr I don't think I saw any mention in the thread of "The Best of Times" which is a darn good movie about high school football. Jack "Butterfingers" Dundee......Reno Hightower in the white shoes is unforgettable.
