Game of Thrones Actor Michael Patrick Dead at [Age]
Michael Patrick, the Game of Thrones actor who battled motor neurone disease, has died. The late actor appeared in the HBO juggernaut and had been living with the devastating neurological illness for years.
Motor neurone disease is a progressive condition that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, gradually weakening muscles and making movement increasingly difficult. It’s brutal, and there’s no cure. Patrick never let it stop him from working, though — he kept acting roles coming even as his health declined.
The actor’s death marks another loss for the Hollywood community. Game of Thrones fans who caught his episode are mourning the loss of a talented performer who showed serious grit in the face of a life-altering diagnosis.
Details about Patrick’s final days and a memorial service have not yet been announced.
