Anthony Anderson Battling Against Type 2 Diabetes!
It is really hard to be a helper when you are a sufferer yourself!
I am sure; this statement is definitely going to put many of you under great confusion.
But that’s the fact, and TV actor Anthony Anderson has come across this, in his real life, as well.
This personality from the series ‘K-Ville’ that we all love to download, has become a part of the leading pharmaceutical firm, Eli Lilly & Company’s ‘F.A.C.E’ campaign.
The campaign F.A.C.E stands for “Fearless African Americans connected and empowered’, and works towards educating African Americans towards the fatal Type 2 Diabetes.
More than 50% of African Americans today suffer from this disease. Reportedly, African Americans have 1.8 times more chances to be affected by this disease than anyone else does, and that is why Anthony Anderson is supporting this campaign.
Well, if you think that this reason is enough for Anthony to be a part of it, then hold on, until you hear the complete story.
Anthony saw his father living a painful life, and finally dying of this disease.
Not only this, he himself was diagnosed with the same disease 10 years ago, and later on, his mother too was found to be diabetic.
By being a part of the campaign, Anderson wants to spread the awareness which he has gained about the disease, to the rest of the sufferers.
He says that when he was diagnosed with this illness, he had no one to talk about it, none, who could guide him on what could be done next.
And the reason why he was so passionate to be linked with the campaign remains, that with it every African American with type 2 diabetes can get all the information they need about this ailment.
That’s really a great cause that Anthony Anderson is a part of!
Despite all this, the actor remains dedicated towards his acting profession.
You can watch K-Ville online to see his on screen performances.
We wish him, and all those suffering from type-2 diabetes, a healthy & happy life!
