Title: Glen Campbell Shares His Final Song... Post by: Hannibal Lecter, MD on October 13, 2014, 09:59:59 AM Quite touching... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U8TsAh-zYFI
Quote Glen Campbell has shared the video for "I'm Not Gonna Miss You," a track that the country music great previously revealed will be the final song he ever records as he battles Alzheimer's Disease. The ballad's devastating lyrics detail Campbell's struggle with the illness, but juxtaposed with the music video, which utilizes personal home video and performance footage from throughout Campbell's life, the result is a truly poignant experience.

Truly, a tragic disease. Title: Re: Glen Campbell Shares His Final Song... Post by: ricky023 on October 13, 2014, 04:43:52 PM I just don't understand with the resources we have in this nation that we can't find a solution for all these diseases. RTR!

It is so saddening to watch victims of this disease struggle with life. Title: Re: Glen Campbell Shares His Final Song... Post by: 2Stater on October 14, 2014, 08:25:37 PM My father died in 1976 after a long illness. My mother re-married in 1979 and died suddenly in 1993. Almost immediately after her death, her husband started exhibiting symptoms of dementia. I really think the good Lord took her because she could not have handled taking care of another man with a long term illness. I became his POA, and still am.
He is full blown Alzheimer's now, and a resident of a V.A. nursing home in Alabama. It is a devastating disease. Title: Re: Glen Campbell Shares His Final Song...

He had some good songs. My favorite was Wichita Lineman. |
