1. Magic Johnson: HIV Magic Johnson, one of the 10 Greatest Players in NBA History . He played point guard for the Los Angeles Lakers of the NBA for 13 seasons. He was rated the greatest NBA point guard of all time. Who can believe it has been 24 years since Magic Johnson stunned the world by announcing that he was HIV positive back in 1991? And he is still going strong due to a daily cocktail of medicines, giving hope to those with the disease, showing that it is not necessarily an instant death sentence.

2. Kim Kardashian: Psoriasis Kim Kardashian is an American television personality, fashion designer, model, and actress. Kardashian has Psoriasis. You’d never guess it by looking at her because she hides it well. Psoriasis is actually an autoimmune disorder in which the immune system thinks that the skin is a pathogen. She will periodically get breakouts and rashes due to the condition. 3. David Beckham: OCD and Tourette’s Syndrome The former footballer, who has played for Manchester United, Preston North End, Real Madrid, Milan, Los Angeles Galaxy, Paris Saint- Germain, and the England national team for which he holds the appearance record for an outfield player. He has been diagnosed with both Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and Tourette’s Syndrome. He has said he has to have things lined up or in pairs; and when he checks into a hotel room, he has to put all of the books and leaflets away into a drawer before he can relax. 5. Missy Elliot: Graves’ Disease Melissa Elliott is an American rapper, singer- songwriter, record producer, dancer and actress. A five-time Grammy Award-winner, Elliott is known for a series of hits and diverse music videos. There’s a reason why Missy Elliot stepped out of the spotlight for a while. Elliott told People magazine that her absence from the music industry was due to a hyperthyroid disorder known as Graves’ disease. This is an autoimmune disorder that affects the thyroid gland and can cause such symptoms as fatigue, goiter, and eye problems. She was so sick at one point that she couldn’t write or drive a car. There is no cure for the disease, but there are treatments that seem to be helping her live her life.

*Odiegwu* Does sign of the cross. So, it's really true that the rich also cry. I can see someone up there alluding religion to their ailments. Oga, you're on your own o. If you think they will be foolish enough to go and dash your G.O money all in the name of seeking deliverance you're on your own. These people ain't Africans, they deal with their problems judiously. 3 Likes |

Tourette Syndrome (or TS) is a neurological disorder characterized by involuntary movements ... TS is NOT a degenerative condition and is NOT life-threatening. Neither is OCD so please behave yourself and remove Becks from this your list. Then ask Mr 10 things himself (tosyne2much) how to do research well. Tosin Happy childrens day o jare 1 Like |
