Ashton Kutcher had a rare autoimmune disorder that robbed him his ability to see, hear, or walk. The ‘That 70s Show’ star says he is “lucky to be alive” after enduring a “super rare form of vasculitis”, which “knocked him out” for a year a couple of years ago.
In the next episode of National Geographic’s ‘Running Wild with Bear Grylls: The Challenge’, the 44-year-old actor explained: “Like two years ago, I had this weird, super rare form of vasculitis, that like knocked out my vision, it knocked out my hearing, it knocked out like all my equilibrium.
It took me a year to build it all back up. ” The condition - which involves an inflammation of blood vessels, which hinders the body’s blood flow that can lead to organ and tissue damage - gave Ashton a new zest for life.
He told Bear: “You don’t really appreciate it until it’s gone. Until you go, ‘I don’t know if I’m ever going to be able to see again, I don’t know if I’m ever going to be able to hear again, I don’t know if I’m ever going to be able to walk again. ’” After Bear lauded Ashton’s “strength through adversity”, the ‘No Strings Attached’ star - who has seven-year-old daughter Wyatt and five-year-old son Dmitri with his wife Mila Kunis, 37 - admitted he was “lucky to be alive” and detailed how his experience gave him a new view on his life, making it more “fun” after he become more open with his “problems”.
