Kim and Ashley Campbell seem to be doing a little tour of Texas. Here's an article from the Hourston Chronicle, including an interview with Kim and Ashley.

Ashley, who played keyboard and banjo, said that in the early going, she wanted to crawl under her keyboard when her dad made mistakes during performances.

"Then I realized the audience loved him no matter what, and it wasn't my fault, and no one thought it was. If something did go wrong, I just tried to help him get back on track."

That was an important lesson to learn, Kim Campbell said. The family realized early on that they couldn't change Campbell or repair him. Instead, they had to laugh with him and accept him the way he was.

Pamela Yip,
Thanks for writing that and for Dee to post it! Glen's article with Kim is on the front page of the Business section of "The Dallas Morning News" from today-2-16-2015. It also continues within that section on another page and they put a picture up there of Glen and Kim. Nice article-I saw her on the news this past weekend-in Fort Worth which is about 50 miles from me! "Wish I Was There".........The awareness of this article was very well done. So many people with Dementia and then the Alzheimer's that sets in is very devastating to all....I had a dear friend who we met when we moved here to the Dallas area 40 years ago. She ended up in an assisted living place but lived to be 103! My uncle in Florida also had this for about 10 years-he passed at 82.

Everyone is different and depending on other health issues will determine how long they actually can go on. I am optimistic and still hoping fro a breakthrough!!!

This article is dated last October, but I did a search on the site and don't see it listed so gonna post it. (Hope it's not a re-post and sorry if it is).

Written by a man with early onset Alzheimer's , (Greg O'Brien)

"One instance is a song performed by Campbell's stunning daughter Ashley, "Daddy, I'll do the remembering for you."

If the song doesn't move you to tears, please check your pulse."

Glen Campbell healthy according to wife in new interview

It's wonderful to read that Glen is healthy and content.
To say the least, it must be difficult on his family, taking one day at a time. My heart goes out to them.

Hmmm....check out this photo of Glen. I think it might have been taken in 2011? What do you think he is measuring here?
