Uncle Matt Reveals His Parkinson's Diagnosis to Robinson

Holly Robinson Peete's side of the family is all too familiar with Parkinson's disease.

Some of the Peetes know of Matt's condition, but 14-year-old Robinson has no idea. Now, Uncle Matt believes it's time for that to change.

While sharing with his nephew some of the turntable techniques he learned as a DJ, Uncle Matt takes the opportunity to open up about his health. Find out how Uncle Matt breaks the news, and see how Robinson reacts upon learning that his uncle struggles with the same disease as his grandfather.
