Having suffered a stroke in June this year,I can genuinely say that it completely resets your life...I've been fortunate,I'd not ever say lucky,I'm still here,still mostly "with it" and mostly able....it's taken my career with it and I'll never be me again as I once was...but many don't live to tell a tale,and many survive but can't tell...It's like taking a hit from a wrecking ball....how much you earn a week means nothing and your worth won't save you....

It hurts my heart to hear that he's not doing well. 😢

I also Love his singing voice in his Cd "Simplicity ". I'm also impressed that he also does interviews with people. He's a great actor & anyone who's been in his life, career or personally is very lucky. I wish I was one of them. It's so sad what happened to such a beautiful person.

I saw and got an autographed in I think was 1978 or 1979. He was touring for his records . We were at the Roxy and we got there 12 hours before the concert started so we had good seats. Biggest thrill of my life. During the concert I touched his shoe, he was that close to me. We worshipped him back then. Now I’m devastated. Life was cruel to him in the end. Such a tragedy.

My goodness what a beautiful person an amazing voice, nobody in the future will know what, "rocky horror picture show" meant or the movie "IT" as Pennywise the clown. True Icon he is. I would love to meet him if anything. Personal circumstances doesn't allow, but I will do my best, i have to meet him.

Maybe im a bit biased since I'm a wheelchair user myself, but I always find it a little insulting when its considered tragic when someone's using a wheelchair. Absolutely it is sad with illness and not being able to live your life like you used to do, but its still a life worth living and it seems like Tim is adapting. I'm NOT saying its completely fine to just being forced to your body being different than you're used to, but I don't think that Tim Curry wants to be seen as tragic. Because he isn't. Differently bodied than before? Yes. Still got humour and communication skills (somewhat different than before due to strokes, I'm aware)? Yes. It doesn't make me happy that he has had to go through all of this but it makes me happy that he still is as active as his condition is allowing. That is NOT tragic.

The stroke aren't something unknown for me: my foster grandmother had a stroke back in 2010 and although she keep her life for a lot of time (she died in 2021) her left hand was totally disabled even with that stroke my granny Terra keep a positive attitude and a fierce determination to continue. That's probably why i'm feel so concerned by Tim Curry? Tim Curry are some kind of spiritual grandfather and my lifetime model. I wish become his successor

Read My Lips is his First Album... and he has some LIVE tracks... This I tribute is his sentiment today with his song "Something Short of Paradise"... Don't cry: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UfwH244p2HE.html Like this if you like this song.
