Morgan Freeman, 86, Doing ‘Fine’ Despite Health Concerns

Journalist Tom Chiarella interviewed the Invictus star four years after the car accident and described the permanent damage Freeman sustained.

“It hurts when he walks, when he sits still, when he rises from the couch, and when he missteps in a damp meadow,” Chiarella wrote.

“More than pain, it seems a kind of agony, though he never mentions it. Despite surgery to repair nerve damage, he was stuck with a useless left hand, stiffly gripped by a compression glove most of the time to ensure that blood doesn’t pool there.”
