In 1994, the actor Eddie Murphy, was diagnosed with Eddie Murphy Syndrome. During the 1990's the disease became so debilitating that he soon was only capable of making sequels and movies for children. After a long battle with EMS in the early 2000's, he slowly began showing signs of recovery after having two life threatening breakouts in 2003 and again in 2007.
