This year, I would say Sochi, Russia, for the Olympics. I probably never would have gone on my own were it not for this amazing job that I have the privilege of having. You know, I got to go over there with my friends — my co-hosts and my producers — and we had a blast. You know, I think it does. I loved it, but it stripped a little of the joy out of it.
With your busy schedules, do you and your wife have time for date nights? We try to go on a date at least once a week, but usually more. So we usually get together with friends and go out to eat. You know, my whole world is in my iPhone. Volunteer to do anything from the start.
Then I would suggest they practice writing. Writing is a gift that can carry you through so much. I think being a good writer is key to everything in this business. My dad was diagnosed 22 years ago, but he just went public about it two years ago on the CBS Sunday Morning show.
Everyone on TV could see it, and all of our family friends knew. It was time. You two are very close. Has your relationship changed since you became a father?
He gets on a plane and flies to cover a story and appears on TV. We just bought this little foot rowboat called a Jon boat. Nothing fancy, you row into one of the reservoirs in Westchester and you sit in a boat, you have a sandwich, you have a drink.
You catch fish. Gotta do that! And, I think drinking a lot of bourbon in the backyard will be a high priority. Log in to leave a comment. Sign in. Forgot your password? Bill didn't just keep his disease from his kids. He hid it at work, too, partly out of concern that CBS might bench him. Although much progress has been made in lifting the stigma around the disease, especially since actor Michael J.
Fox announced his diagnosis in , the atmosphere was different 30 years ago. Though he struggled with symptoms, Bill forged ahead. Some people have a harder time with Parkinson's than others through no fault of their own. Bill's relatively stable disease course, in which his symptoms progressed slowly, is a pattern more often seen in early-onset cases. At home, Bill seemed well enough that Willie—in high school when his father was diagnosed—didn't take much notice.
But he and his sister weren't oblivious. One was Bill reaching up to open the car's sunroof. Bill's slowness, naps, and occasional self-isolation gradually raised questions. Dad never complained and never wanted to talk about it. We followed his lead.
Eventually, Bill felt a need to come clean about what was happening during those times when the family got together. She said, 'You wouldn't want to give them the idea that you don't like them,' which couldn't be further from the truth. Bill gave the go-ahead for Jody to tell the children he had Parkinson's disease. The news was so unsurprising that Willie can't remember the moment he found out. CBS viewers eventually started wondering what was up as well. The family experience has led both Willie and Bill to advocate for Parkinson's disease awareness and research through organizations such as the Michael J.
Fox Foundation, where Willie serves as a board member. The Michael J. Fox Foundation's projects include investigating patient experiences with deep brain stimulation DBS , a surgical treatment for Parkinson's symptoms that Bill received three years ago.
Fasano says of the procedure, which entails implanting electrodes that modulate activity in targeted regions of the brain to alleviate motor symptoms. Together with her team, they were awarded the George Foster Peabody Award for Black Magic , a documentary about basketball programs at historically black colleges and universities. In they were again awarded the George Foster Peabody Award for 30 , a documentary about the founding and the anniversary of the ESPN network.
