Comedian Richard Lewis Retires from Stand-Up Due to Parkinson's Disease

Comedian Richard Lewis has revealed that he has Parkinson's Disease, which he was diagnosed with two years ago. He said he had been dealing with his health privately until now. Lewis, who recently wrapped up the 12th season of Curb Your Enthusiasm, said he plans to continue acting and writing but is finished with stand-up. Parkinson's is a progressive neurological disorder that affects movement, and there is no cure for the disease, but medication can improve symptoms.
