It is with heavy hearts that we share some sad news with you, dear readers. Our beloved Tom Selleck, the charismatic private investigator Thomas Magnum from the hit TV series Magnum, P.I., is facing health challenges that may even lead to the cancellation of his iconic show.
Tom, an esteemed American actor and film producer, has been battling chronic rheumatoid arthritis. This condition greatly affects him on a daily basis, both personally and professionally on the set of his current show, “Blue Bloods.” Gone are the days when he effortlessly leaped from cars and dived into the depths of the sea.
Tom now relies on a stunt double for the more dangerous action scenes. Simple tasks like getting in and out of his police car are even challenging due to the pain caused by his arthritis. But true to his professional nature, Tom never complains.
Adding to the concerns, Tom’s family worries that his treatment for arthritis, which may involve steroid-like medications, might be affecting his vision and causing a gradual loss of sight. Uveitis, a condition linked to arthritis, can lead to inflammation in the middle layer of the eye and usually affects individuals between the ages of 20 and 59.
