Glen Campbell Fights Alzheimer’s
As much as I HATE to share a Fox News Link, who doesn’t like Glen Campbell. My heart goes out to him and his family.
As a country legend and TV star, Glen Campbell has entertained millions.
In his 50 years in show business, he sold more than 45 million records, was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame and was recently honored with the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award.
But now, at 75 years old, Campbell faces a private challenge — Alzheimer’s disease.
This weekend, only on Fox News Channel, Campbell reveals his personal struggle and public farewell. With his wife of nearly 30 years, Kim Woollen, he’s taking his message on the road — a rocking goodbye tour for fans across America.
You’ll get an inside look at how Campbell is able to perform on stage each night, while successfully battling the debilitating disease that affects more than 10 million Americans.
Plus, hear how Alzheimer’s impacts patients’ loved ones from TV personality Leeza Gibbons and Maria Shriver.
And, Vice President Biden on raising awareness for the disease.
