Tom Kane's Journey to Recovery

According to PEOPLE, in December 2020, Kane's daughter revealed that the voice actor had been largely absent from public events and social media after suffering a left-sided stroke, which caused weakness on the right side of his body and affected the speech center of his brain. She later continued, "My dad still remains in good spirits and his extreme stubbornness has helped him already show improvements in speech. He is fully on board with me sharing this and he will see anything you guys post."
