Sir Patrick Stewart passed away under the loving care of his beloved wife Sunny after a brief and poignant journey with Alzheimer's Disease and Lewy Body Dementia. The actor behind Captain Picard in Star Trek and Professor Xavier in X-Men dedicated his later years to campaigns against violence toward women, rooted in childhood memories where medical professionals wrongly claimed his mother provoked domestic abuse. He countered that she did nothing wrong and insisted violence is never a choice for a man, adding that people should avoid hugs if they feel unsafe. His advocacy served as a way to finally support the woman he couldn't help back then: So I do what I do in my mother's name, because I couldn't help her then. Now I can. #PatrickStewart
