Last night was the opening of this artist's exhibit at the Brooklyn Museum and I attended. Two people helped him walk down the aisle and onto the stage. It looked as if his hands were affected too. After the lecture I saw him in his wheelchair being taken to a limo. I went over to him and asked if indeed he had TM. He didn't even look at me and just said I'm done. A guard said he is very tired. I know he was tired but he was also very rude!!! Tobe Brooklyn NY
