I couldn’t balance. I couldn’t do anything like that,” Bonaduce said. “She looked really nervous. And she said, ‘You’re not saying words, you’re not speaking English,’ which of course is preposterous to me.” He added, “We call an ambulance and [it] took me to the hospital where I remained for the first five days and remember very little of it.” Talking about his battle with the illness, Bonaduce said, “I couldn’t walk.
