Things I learned from this article:
• Floored a decade ago with a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis, he vowed to make every day count.
• Conceding he was "extraordinarily humbled"... He had drawn inspiration seeing '"hope conquer despair'"
• His experience of the disease had, in its own way, enriched his life.
• I have my own experience with how fickle life can be and I've been very blessed.
• I don't talk publicly about my sickness very much because I'm up the easy end of the spectrum. It is a wonderful thing for me really, because I encountered what life might have been like if I had been struck with it permanently.
• Growing up in a poorer part of town, he said he learned not only to recognize need, but to do something about it. "It was just an obvious thing to do".
