-WHO IS THAT?

-IT'S YOU, HONEY.

-THAT'S ME THERE?

-WHO'S THAT WITH YOU?

-OH, THAT'S ME.

-WHO ARE YOU HOLDING?

-I-I DON'T KNOW
WHICH ONE I'M HOLDING.

-IT'S DEBBY,
YOUR OLDEST DAUGHTER.

-THAT'S DEBBY?

DEBBY!

-I FORGOT.

WELL, WHO IS HE?

-COME ON.
YOU KNOW WHO THAT IS.

IT'S YOU, HONEY.

-OH.

-IT'S A MOVIE ABOUT YOU.

-NO KIDDING?

I'LL BE ME.

WHO IS THAT?

-THAT'S BILLIE.

-OH, IT'S MY DAUGHTER.

-NO, THAT'S YOUR SECOND WIFE.

-BILLIE.

-YOU WERE MARRIED FOR 16 YEARS.

YOU HAD KELLI, TRAVIS, AND KANE.

-OH, REALLY?

WHO IS THAT?

-THAT'S YOUR THIRD WIFE, SARAH,
AND DILLON.

AND THEN YOU MET ME.

-WOW, SHE'S A GOOD-LOOKING GIRL.

AND SHE STILL IS.

-SO HOW MANY DOES THIS MAKE NOW?

-THAT IS SIX BOYS.

AND -- YEAH, I GOT SIX BOYS,
TWO GIRLS.

-EIGHT?

-IF I HAVE ANOTHER -- YEAH.

HEY, "REPLENISH THE EARTH"
IT SAID, YOU KNOW.

-YEAH, BUT NOT ONE PERSON.

-MRS. CAMPBELL, HOW DOES IT FEEL
TO BE THE MOTHER

OF ONE OF THE FINEST RECORDING
STARS IN THE COUNTRY?

-WELL, WE'RE REALLY PROUD OF HIM
AND EVERYTHING,

BUT I'M JUST STILL
THE SAME OLD CARRIE,

STILL THE SAME OLD THING.

-WHAT KIND OF -- WHAT KIND OF
BOY WAS GLEN, MR. CAMPBELL?

-UH, HE WAS JUST
A GOOD OL' COUNTRY BOY.

-THANK YOU SO MUCH.

I GUESS I HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE
TO THANK FOR THIS, TOO,

AND MAINLY FOLKS WITH THE CMA.

BUT I'D LIKE TO THANK
TOMMY SMOTHERS

FOR GIVING ME THE CHANCE TO DO
A GOOD COUNTRY SUMMER SHOW.

-HE REALLY BROUGHT COUNTRY
INTO THE MAINSTREAM.

-THE RECORD HE'S GOT OUT,

I GUESS IT'S ONE OF THE BIGGEST
RECORDS HE'S EVER HAD,

CALLED "RHINESTONE COWBOY."

SOMEBODY TOLD ME IT'S
ON THE WAY TO SELLING

TWO MILLION COPIES
OF ONE RECORD.

-YOU KNOW, AND STRANGE ENOUGH,

THAT'S MY FIRST
NUMBER-ONE RECORD.

-THAT IS INCREDIBLE.

-GOOD EVENING,
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.

I'M GLEN CAMPBELL, I THINK.

-IN 1968, THE ENTERTAINER
OF THE YEAR WAS GLEN CAMPBELL.

-WERE YOU A BEACH BOY EVER?

-YEAH, SIX MONTHS.

-DIDN'T YOU SIT IN
FOR BRIAN WILSON?

-I KNOW I HAVEN'T CHANGED,
I DON'T THINK.

LIKE, WHEN YOU GO BACK HOME,

THE PEOPLE TREAT YOU
SO DIFFERENT.

-HE GREW UP DIRT POOR
IN ARKANSAS,

LEARNED MUSIC ON A SEARS
AND ROEBUCK GUITAR,

AND BECAME ONE OF THE BIGGEST
RECORDING STARS OF ALL TIME.

AS A MUCH SOUGHT-AFTER
STUDIO MUSICIAN,

HE RECORDED WITH EVERYONE
FROM FRANK SINATRA

TO ELVIS TO THE BEACH BOYS.

-IF "TRUE GRIT" IS AS SUCCESSFUL
AS EVERYONE SAYS IT'S GONNA BE,

WE MAY HAVE SOMETHING GOING.

-THE RHINESTONE COWBOY HIMSELF,
MR. GLEN CAMPBELL.

PEOPLE SAY, "IS THERE NO END
TO THIS MAN'S TALENT?"

-IS THERE NO BEGINNING?

-YOU KNOW WHAT
THE DATE IS TODAY?

THE MONTH, THE DAY,
AND THE YEAR?

WHAT MONTH DO YOU THINK THIS IS?

-I -- WHAT IS IT?

I DON'T KNOW.
LET'S GO LOOK.

-OKAY.
WHAT TIME OF THE YEAR?

ARE WE IN WINTER, SPRING,
SUMMER, OR FALL?

-I DON'T WORRY ABOUT THAT.

I DON'T WORRY ABOUT THEM.

-ALL RIGHT.
DO YOU KNOW THE YEAR?

WHAT YEAR IS IT?

-1870, SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

-NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO.

NO. I DON'T PAY ATTENTION
TO THOSE THINGS.

WHEN IT'S NEEDED,
I TAKE CARE OF THAT.

-HOW OLD ARE YOU NOW?

-I DON'T KNOW.
HOW OLD AM I?

-WELL.

I WAS BORN IN 1936.

-OKAY.

-1949.

-76.

-SO YOU'RE 76 NOW.

-YEAH, I'M 76.

-OKAY. DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOU ARE
RIGHT NOW?

WHAT'S THE NAME OF THIS PLACE?

-I DON'T KNOW.

-UM, WHAT KIND OF A PLACE
IS THIS?

WHERE HAVE YOU COME?

-OBVIOUSLY, I'M BEING ANALYZED.

-OKAY.

SO WHAT KIND OF AN INST--
WHAT IS THIS?

IS THIS A -- IS IT A HOSPITAL,
MEDICAL FACILITY?

-MM-HMM.

-THAT'S WHAT IT IS.
OKAY. RIGHT.

WHO WAS THE FIRST PRESIDENT
OF THE UNITED STATES?

CAN YOU GO BACK
TO YOUR SCHOOL YEARS?

WHO WAS THE FIRST PRESIDENT?

-MY GOODNESS.
I DON'T KNOW.

-OKAY.

-I DON'T REALLY NONE USED THAT
VERY MUCH LATELY.

-I'D LIKE YOU TO TRY TO REMEMBER
FOUR WORDS, OKAY?

I'M GONNA GIVE YOU FOUR WORDS.

YOU TRY TO REMEMBER THEM NOW.

-"IF," "AND," AND "BUT"
IS MY BIG ONES.

-THOSE -- THOSE --
THOSE ARE LATER.

THOSE ARE LATER.

TRY TO REMEMBER
THESE FOUR WORDS, OKAY?

-OKAY.

-APPLE.

-APPLE.

-MR. JOHNSON.

-MR. JOHNSON.

-CHARITY.

-CHARITY.

-AND TUNNEL.

-AND TUNNEL.

-CAN YOU GIVE THOSE BACK
TO ME NOW?

-NO.
I HAVE NO USE FOR IT NOW.

I JUST ALREADY PASSED IT.

-THEY'RE GONE ALREADY.
OKAY.

-I CAN PLAY GUITAR.

-2, 3.

-YOU KNOW HOW TO DO THAT,
DON'T YOU?

-I'VE DONE IT A FEW TIMES.

-I IMAGINE SO.
I NEVER --

-YOU DIDN'T FLINCH,
SO THAT'S GOOD.

-TWO INJECTIONS.

-TWO INJECTIONS WE'RE GONNA DO.

-IT'S THE SAME STUFF?

-NOPE. IT'S ACTUALLY
A DIFFERENT MATERIAL.

IT WILL GET TAKEN UP DIFFERENTLY
IN THE BRAIN.

-OH.

BUT MY BRAIN IS SO SMART.

I WAS SO BRIGHT,
MY DADDY CALLED ME SUN .

-I'M GULLIBLE
FOR SILLY THINGS.

-SILLY THINGS?

-DID THEY STICK THAT IN ME?

-YEAH, YOU'VE GOT A, UM --
A NEEDLE IN THERE,

BUT THERE'S NO TUBE TO IT YET.

-ALL RIGHT.

NOW, I'M GONNA JUST HAVE YOU
REST QUIETLY IN HERE.

AND IN ABOUT 30 MINUTES,
I'LL COME GET YOU,

AND THEN WE'LL LOOK
AT PICTURES. OKAY?

-DOES THAT MEAN
YOU'RE KNOCKING ME OUT?

-NO, I JUST WANT YOU TO REST
QUIETLY IN HERE.

I'M GONNA TURN THE LIGHTS DOWN.

-♪ AND I REMEMBER, TOO,
A DISTANT BELL ♪

♪ AND STARS THAT FELL OUT
OF THE BLUE ♪

-"LIKE THE RAIN."

-HUH?

OH, THE RAIN.

-STARS THAT FELL LIKE THE RAIN.

-♪ AND THE RAIN OUT OF
THE BLUE-HOO-HOO-HOO ♪

♪ WHEN MY LIFE IS THROUGH

-♪ AND THE ANGELS --

-♪ I REMEMBER --
OH, YOU SING IT.

-♪ AND THE ANGLES ASK ME...

-♪ ...TO RECALL

-♪ THE TRILL OF THEM ALL

-♪ I REMEMBER, TOO,

♪ YOU'RE THE ONE
WHO SAID "I DO" ♪

♪ DIDN'T YOU?

-DID YOU TURN THE LIGHT OFF?!

-OKAY, WE'LL BE RIGHT IN.

-THIS IS YOUR BRAIN.
-WOW.

-IT'S LIKE YOU'RE LOOKING
STRAIGHT AT THE CAMERA,

SO WE'RE LOOKING FRONT ON
AT THE BRAIN.

IN THIS PARTICULAR SHOT,

WE'RE LOOKING AT THIS REGION
OF THE BRAIN...

-OH.

-...BECAUSE THAT'S THE PART
OF THE BRAIN, AMONG OTHERS,

THAT'S INVOLVED WITH MEMORY.

-THAT BUTTERFLY IN THERE
ON PURPOSE?

-THE BUTTERFLY IS SORT OF WATER
SPACE IN THE BRAIN, OKAY?

IT'S LIKE WHERE VENTRICLES,
WHERE THE FLUID IS,

THE SPINAL FLUID IS, OKAY?

SO, RIGHT IN HERE IS A STRUCTURE
CALLED A HIPPOCAMPUS,

AND THAT'S VITAL FOR MEMORY.

AND UNFORTUNATELY,
IN ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE,

IT STARTS TO SHRINK.

AND SO WE CAN SEE HERE
ON THIS M.R. SCAN

THAT YOURS IS SMALLER
THAN IT USED TO BE.

IT USED TO OCCUPY
THIS WHOLE SPACE,

BUT NOW IT'S CONSIDERABLY
SMALLER.

SO THIS IS WHAT
WE WOULD CALL ATROPHY.

SO, IF WE LOOK AT THESE
BOTTOM PICTURES HERE,

THE ONES THAT HAVE
THE BLUE BACKGROUND,

IF THE BRAIN PATTERN
WAS NORMAL...

-MM-HMM.

-...IT WOULD BE SOLID DARK BLUE,

LIKE THIS COLOR IN HERE.

AND SO THINGS IN THAT PART
OF THE BRAIN

ARE NOT WORKING QUITE NORMALLY.

-HMM.

-THIS INDICATES THAT,
IN ALL LIKELIHOOD,

YOUR DIFFICULTIES ARE DUE
TO ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE.

THIS IS --
WE'RE ABLE TO DO THAT NOW.

THIS IS A FAIRLY SOPHISTICATED
NEW TEST NOW

THAT TELLS US THAT THAT'S
THE LIKELY UNDERLYING CAUSE.

-I-I FIGURED THAT WAS JUST
A...GETTING --

GETTING THE ONES, UH, OUT THAT
I DON'T REALLY WANT OR NEED.

-YOU'RE TRYING TO FORGET THINGS
THAT YOU DON'T NEED ANYMORE,

AND YOU'RE TRYING TO CLEAR OUT
THE MIND A BIT, YEAH?

-WELL, I DO.
I FORGET 'EM.

-GOOD.

-I KNEW -- I KNEW
IT WAS ALZHEIMER'S,

BUT IT'S MORE SOLIDLY IN MY MIND
NOW THAT I HAVE TO ACCEPT IT.

AND, UM...IT'S --

IT'S REALLY HARD.

BUT...I-I JUST --

YOU KNOW, I JUST HAVE TO
MAINTAIN AS LONG AS I CAN

AND TRY TO KEEP HIM HEALTHY
AND HAPPY.

-WHEN I FIRST HEARD, YOU KNOW,
THE WORD, YOU KNOW, "DEMENTIA,"

UM, THE REACTION WAS FIRST,
UM, SYMPATHY, EMPATHY,

BUT ALSO AS A BUSINESSMAN,
"WOW, WHAT'S THIS GONNA MEAN?

WHAT ABOUT THE TOUR?" YOU KNOW.

"IS THAT GONNA BE VIABLE?"

AND WE NEED TO DEAL
WITH THIS PROPERLY.

WE NEED TO GO PUBLIC WITH IT.

-PLEASE DON'T.

-HE SANG GOOD.

-STOP.
WOULD YOU STOP IT?

-NO!

-LET ME FIX THIS.

AAH.

SING IT PRETTY.

-NO.

-PLEASE.

-NO.

-I'LL LET YOU KISS MY BACK.

♪ EVERY STREET
IS DARK AND FOLDING♪

♪ OUT MYSTERIOUSLY♪

-WE GOT THE DIAGNOSIS
OF ALZHEIMER'S

ABOUT THE SAME TIME
THAT "GHOST ON THE CANVAS"

WAS BEING RELEASED,

WHICH IS A FABULOUS,
FABULOUS PIECE.

AND, YOU KNOW, WE WANTED TO GO
OUT AND PROMOTE IT.

THAT WAS PART OF
OUR RESPONSIBILITY,

YOU KNOW, WITH THE RECORD
COMPANY AND WITH JULIAN.

-SUFFERING WITH THIS DISEASE
THAT HE HAS,

I MEAN, IF HE DIDN'T HAVE
THE KIND OF PITCH THAT HE HAS,

THE PERFECT PITCH,

IF HE WAS LIKE HALF THE MUSICIAN
THAT HE -- THAT HE IS,

I JUST DON'T THINK, UH --

I DON'T KNOW HOW HE WOULD
PULL THIS OFF.

-STEP IN. READY?

-WHAT WE GONNA DO?

-WAIT A MINUTE.

-THE NEW SONGS MIGHT BE
A LITTLE BIT OF A CHALLENGE

BECAUSE THEY'RE NEW
AND IT'S -- IT'S HARD --

IT'S A LITTLE HARDER FOR HIM
TO LEARN NEW SONGS,

BUT WE'RE DRILLING THEM
IN HIS HEAD EVERY DAY.

HE'S PRACTICING WITH THE LYRICS.

-ALL RIGHT, HERE WE GO.

-I HAD IT JUST EXACTLY
WHERE I WANTED IT.

-HE LIKES LIKE 120.

-WOULD YOU PUT IT AT 122?

JUST OUT OF KICKS,
PUT IT AT 122.

-JUST FOR KICKS.

-THERE ARE TOO MANY --

THERE'S TOO MANY INDIANS
IN HERE, MAN.

I'M THE CHIEF.

THERE'S WANNABE --
THERE'S ONE DRIVER IN HERE.

SO IF YOU WANT ME TO FIRE YOU
FROM THE DITCH...

-THAT'S BEEN ONE OF
OUR BIGGEST PROBLEMS.

GLEN HAS BECOME
UN-REHEARSE-ABLE.

ANY REHEARSAL IS MORE LIKE
A SOUND CHECK.

HE CAN'T GET THROUGH A SONG
WITHOUT STOPPING

AND TRYING TO EITHER
TELL SOMEONE

HOW TO PLAY THEIR INSTRUMENT

OR THAT THEY'RE
PLAYING TOO LOUD.

-WAIT A MINUTE!

-ONE THING I NOTICED ABOUT HIM

ASKING FOR A STRANGE TEMPO
CHANGE WAS THAT, UM --

I MEAN, SOMETIMES MY BROTHER
WOULD BE, LIKE,

A LITTLE ARGUMENTATIVE AND SAY,
"DAD, THAT'S THE WRONG ONE."

AND I'D SAY, "GUYS,
LET'S JUST DO IT FOR HIM."

-IT'S GOT TO BE A LITTLE FASTER.

-I'M JUST PLAYING
WHAT'S ON THE RECORD.

ALL RIGHT, HERE WE GO.

-THAT'S RIGHT.
IT'S MY RECORD.

-WHAT TIME IS IT?

-UH...4:00.

YOU GO ON IN 45 MINUTES.

-NO KIDDING?

-THERE'S YOUR COFFEE.
BE CAREFUL.

I DON'T KNOW HOW HOT THAT IS.

-TODAY IS, UH, GLEN'S FIRST

TELEVISION PERFORMANCE,

UM, SINCE THE RELEASE
OF THE NEW RECORD

AND SINCE THE DIAGNOSIS
OF ALZHEIMER'S.

-SEE THAT LITTLE CIRCLE?

IT'S, LIKE, VERY IMPORTANT

THAT YOU DON'T GO OUTSIDE THAT
CIRCLE, 'CAUSE THE CAMERAS.

-NO.

-I'LL STAND WHERE I WANT TO

AND SING WHERE I WANT TO,
STAND AND ALL.

YOU GOT IT.

-WELL, I FEEL LIKE
A STAGE MOTHER

'CAUSE, YOU KNOW, I GUESS,
AS A STAGE MOTHER,

I KNOW THE PERFORMANCE
BACKWARDS AND FORWARDS,

I KNOW EVERY WORD,

I KNOW EVERY LICK ON THE GUITAR.

IT'S LIKE AN ORGANISM, YOU KNOW?

WE'RE TRYING TO COMPENSATE.

IF HE GOES THIS WAY,
WE GO THAT WAY.

-WE WERE TERRIFIED THAT MY DAD

WOULD NOT BE ABLE
TO DO IT RIGHT,

HE WOULDN'T BE ABLE
TO GET THROUGH THE SONG.

WE WERE TERRIFIED HE WAS JUST

GONNA WANDER OFF
INTO THE AUDIENCE.

HE KEPT TURNING AROUND TO LOOK
AT CAL AND THE DRUMS

AND TO TELL THE BASS PLAYER
HOW TO PLAY.

-ARE YOU A BASS PLAYER?

-YEAH, SURE AM.

-WHAT'S YOUR BIGGEST FEAR

ABOUT THIS SHOW TODAY?

THAT HE CAN'T DO IT.

IT'S MY GREATEST FEAR.

-SO, WHAT ABOUT THE TOUR?

-IT WOULD BE -- IT WOULD BE HARD
TO CONTINUE TO DO --

TO DO THINGS.

-MY NEXT GUEST
IS AN AMERICAN ICON.

HE'S WON FIVE GRAMMY AWARDS,

SEVEN ACADEMY
OF COUNTRY MUSIC AWARDS,

AND THREE AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS,

SOLD OVER 50 MILLION
RECORDS WORLDWIDE.

HE RECENTLY WENT PUBLIC
WITH THE FACT

THAT HE HAD BEEN DIAGNOSED
WITH ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE,

AND HE'S WRITTEN
HIS FINAL RECORD

AS A TRIBUTE TO HIS LIFE.

TONIGHT HE'S GONNA BE JOINED
BY THREE OF HIS KIDS

TO PERFORM TWO SONGS FROM
HIS NEW ALBUM RIGHT HERE,

"GHOST ON THE CANVAS."

PLEASE WELCOME THE LEGENDARY
GLEN CAMPBELL.

-I AM HAPPY TO BE HERE.

HELLO, BUDDY.
GOOD JOB.

-GOD BLESS YOU.
-THAT WAS GREAT.

THAT WAS WONDERFUL.
-THANK Y'ALL.

-YOU'RE ONE OF THOSE GUYS

THAT'S JUST IMPACTED A LOT
OF PEOPLE, YOU KNOW.

-"GENTLE ON MY MIND" --
YOU KNOW, IT'S JUST --

THEY'RE JUST SUCH GREAT SONGS.

AND IT'S LIKE
THE GREAT AMERICAN SONG BOOK,

AND YOU'RE PART OF IT.

-AWW.

-WELL, THANK YOU, MY FRIEND.

-YOU'RE OKAY.

-WELL, WE LOVE HAVING YOU.

YOU'RE ALWAYS WELCOME.

YOU'VE BEEN HERE MANY TIMES,

AND ANY TIME YOU WANT TO COME,
WE'RE ALWAYS HERE.

THANK YOU, MY FRIEND.

-I WILL.
GOD BLESS YOU.

-AND YOU HAVE A BEAUTIFUL
FAMILY, SO CONGRATULATIONS.

IF THAT DAUGHTER WANTS TO COME
BACK WITHOUT YOU, IT'S FINE.

-I HAD TO WATCH THEM ALL,
SO I JUST PUT THEM TO WORK.

-WELL, THAT'S THE WAY TO DO IT.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.

-THANK YOU.

-THANKS, YOU GUYS.

-WELL, THERE'S DEFINITELY
SOME "WOO WOO" IN THERE.

-♪ HEY, HEY, HEY, HEY, HEY

-YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU DO A MAJOR
CITY LIKE NEW YORK OR L.A.,

THEN THEY'RE ALWAYS
REALLY IMPORTANT SHOWS

BECAUSE ALL THE CRITICS COME,

AND YOU WANT TO PUT
YOUR BEST FOOT FORWARD.

SO, WHEN IT CAME TIME TO DO
THE NOKIA SHOW HERE IN L.A.,

WE HAD SOME REHEARSALS

JUST TO MAKE SURE WE SHORED IT
UP AND DID OUR VERY BEST.

-MAYBE IN HIS CURRENT STATE
OF HAZINESS,

WHEN HE CONNECTS TO SOMETHING
THAT HE'S BEEN DOING FOR SO LONG

OR JUST BRINGS HIM
THE MOST JOY,

I THINK THAT THEN HE ACTUALLY
BECOMES HIMSELF AGAIN.

-IT REALLY IS --
IT REALLY IS FUN.

THE MOST INCREDIBLE SETUP
THAT I'VE EVER BEEN IN,

WITH THE KIDS AND MY WIFE

AND PLAYING WITH THE KIDS
IN THE BAND.

IT'S JUST -- IT REALLY IS --
IT REALLY IS FUN.

-IT'S NOT ALL BAD, NECESSARILY.

LIKE, UM, IT'S KIND OF LIKE

WE GET TO CELEBRATE HIS LIFE
WHILE HE'S STILL AROUND.

YOU KNOW, WE DON'T HAVE TO --

YOU KNOW, SOME PEOPLE,
WE DON'T REALLY GET TO SEE,

LIKE, THE FULL PICTURE
OF WHAT THEIR LIFE'S BEEN

UNTIL THEY'RE GONE.

WITH THIS ILLNESS,

WE KNOW THAT THE END
IS KIND OF, YOU KNOW, NEAR,

AT LEAST, LIKE, FOR HIS CAREER,

AND KIND OF CELEBRATE IT
AND ENJOY IT

WITH HIM STILL,
YOU KNOW, WITH US.

AND IT'S ACTUALLY KIND OF NICE.

-THAT IS -- THAT'S TOO --
THAT'S JUST TOO --

THAT -- THE BASS
IS JUST TOO LATE.

-WE'LL TURN IT DOWN A BIT.

-YEAH, THERE IS A BIG
MUSICAL CHALLENGE

IN THIS KIND OF SHOW

THAT MOST MUSICIANS
DON'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH,

WHICH IS, ANYTHING COULD HAPPEN.

ALL BETS ARE OFF.

BUT THAT'S KIND OF EXCITING.

-WHAT TIME WE GONNA GO?

-WHERE, TO DO YOUR SHOW?

-WELL, WE GONNA SING SOME SONGS,
AREN'T WE?

-YEAH.

-GONNA BE ABOUT SIX MINUTES.

-OKAY.

-♪ OOH-OOH, OOH-OOH, OOH

-GLEN WOULD SAY, "GOD HAS
A PURPOSE IN EVERYTHING.

THERE'S A PURPOSE
IN EVERYTHING."

AND, UH,
THAT'S WHAT HE WOULD SAY

IF HE KNEW THE FULL
RAMIFICATIONS

OF WHAT WAS GOING ON.

-AND GLEN'S NOT MORE IMPORTANT
BECAUSE HE'S MUSICAL,

BUT HERE'S SOMEBODY WITH ONE OF
THE GREATEST GIFTS,

YOU KNOW, GOD EVER
PUT INTO SOMEBODY,

AND -- AND AT THE END
OF THE DAY,

IT HASN'T REALLY TAKEN THAT GIFT
AWAY FROM HIM.

-HE HAD SUCH A GREAT DEMEANOR
AND WAS IN HIS GLORY,

AND IT'S REALLY SOMETHING
I'M SO GLAD I GOT TO SEE,

'CAUSE THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE.

-♪ AH, AH-AH, AH-AH

-PEOPLE WERE JUST SO ENCOURAGING
AND LOVING,

AND THEY ALL KNEW THAT --
YOU KNOW,

THERE'S BEEN SO MUCH PRESS
ABOUT HIM HAVING ALZHEIMER'S,

THEY ALL KNEW,

AND THEY WERE JUST
CHEERING HIM ON

AND GIVING HIM SO MUCH LOVE.

SO THAT WAS THE BIGGEST BLESSING

AND A CONFIRMATION THAT WE WERE
DOING THE RIGHT THING.

-LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA-A-A-A!

-I THINK THE DECISION
TO BOOK A TOUR

AND DO A TOUR
IS INCREDIBLY COURAGEOUS

BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, INHERENT
IN THERE IS THE RISK

THAT HE COULD KIND OF UNDERMINE
PEOPLE'S RESPECT FOR HIM

OR, YOU KNOW,
APPRECIATION FOR HIM.

-♪ OOH, OOH, OOH-OOH

-EVERY LITTLE THING AFFECTS GLEN
IN A BIG WAY.

YOU KNOW, WITH HIS TEETH,

HE HAD A LITTLE SOMETHING
ON HIS TOOTH,

SO HE ASKED FOR KNIVES.

"DOES ANYBODY GOT A KNIFE?

DOES ANYBODY HAVE
A RAZOR BLADE?"

HE WANTS TO STICK THINGS
IN HIS MOUTH.

-THAT'S A TIFFANY DIAMOND
RIGHT THERE.

-IT'S MY EARRING.

MY EARRING IS IN HIS MOUTH
AS WE SPEAK.

JUST OBSESSES
OVER EVERY LITTLE THING.

-WELL, I DON'T KNOW WHO --
WHO GOT THAT STARTED.

WHO GOT IT STARTED?

-WHAT, THAT YOU HAD ALZHEIMER'S?

-IT'S A RUMOR.

"IT'S A RUMOR."

-HE'S ALWAYS UP.

HE'S ALWAYS UP, EVEN THROUGH
HIS CHALLENGES AND ALL THAT.

HE JOKES AROUND CONSTANTLY.

HE'S GOT MORE JOKES THAN ANYBODY
I'VE EVER MET.

AND WE JUST CRACK EACH OTHER UP
ALL THE TIME

AND JUST HAVE A WONDERFUL,
WONDERFUL TIME.

-I HAVE CRIED,
AND I HAVE LAUGHED.

LAUGHING IS A HELL
OF A LOT BETTER.

-FLEX YOUR MUSCLES FOR ME,
HONEY.

WHOO. WHOO!
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

THAT'S NOT A 75-YEAR-OLD BODY.

WHOO.
JUST DON'T TURN SIDEWAYS.

-PART OF ME WAS AFRAID

THAT THE PEOPLE WERE GOING
TO THE SHOW

BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT IT WAS
A STOCK-CAR RACE.

THEY WERE GOING TO SEE A CRASH,

THAT THEY WERE ALMOST EXPECTING
TO SEE SOMETHING.

AND MAYBE I SHOULD HAVE
MORE RESPECT

FOR MY FELLOW HUMAN BEINGS.

BUT IT TURNS OUT THAT PEOPLE

REALLY SEEM TO WANT TO BE THERE

TO SEE SOMETHING THAT THEY MAY
NOT BE ABLE TO SEE AGAIN.

-IN A WAY, IT'S A BLESSING
FOR HIS FANS

BECAUSE WE KNOW
THAT ON DOWN THE LINE,

WE'RE NOT GONNA BE ABLE TO --
TO GO AND --

AND SEE HIM
AND WATCH HIM PERFORM.

AND SO, YOU KNOW, NOW IS --

IS OUR OPPORTUNITY TO GET OUT
AND TO BE ABLE TO SEE,

YOU KNOW, A LIVING LEGEND.

-GLEN AND MY DAD WERE FRIENDS.

AND, UM, HIS MUSIC FILLED
THE HOUSE, THE CASH HOUSE.

MUSIC MAGICALLY MAKES A
DIFFERENCE IN EVERYONE'S LIFE.

I MEAN, IT'S THE FIRE
THAT DRIVES US ON.

IT GETS US THROUGH OUR ROUGHER,
HARDER TIMES.

-I STILL CLING TO THE FACT

THAT MUSIC DOES SOMETHING
TO THE MOLECULES.

I THINK THAT MUSIC IS ONE OF
THE ONLY THINGS

THAT REALLY, COLLECTIVELY,

CAN CHANGE THE MOLECULES
IN ALL OF US.

AND GOSH, WHAT A -- WHAT A --
WHAT AN IMMENSE BLESSING

TO BE ABLE TO HAVE THAT IMPACT
ON PEOPLE.

-GOD BLESS YOU. THANKS.

WHOA!

THANK YOU.

WHOO!

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
GOD BLESS.

I REALLY APPRECIATE IT.

SERIOUSLY.

-WHAT?

-OUR TELEPROMPTER WENT OUT.
IT JUST BLEW.

I WAS WONDERING WHY THAT WAS.

HAS ANYBODY HERE GOT EVERYTHING

-WE GOT IT WORKED OUT.
HOLD ON. HOLD ON.

-WHAT?

-WE'RE GONNA PULL IT UP.

OKAY, READY?

-OKAY.

THE TELEPROMPTER FOR EVERY SONG.

HE'S SINGING AND STUFF,
AND HE GOES --

HE SAID, "GLEN, PLAY A LONG

"OKAY."

IF YOU GO BACK AND WATCH
THE TV SHOWS

AND LISTEN TO THOSE RECORDS,

AND -- YOU KNOW, A LOT OF THOSE
RECORDS HE PLAYED ON,

THE LINER NOTES DIDN'T SAY
"GLEN CAMPBELL PLAYED"

ON THOSE BEACH BOYS' RECORDS.

BUT HE DID.

-SO MANY BLESSINGS
TIED UP IN THIS.

I MEAN, THINK ABOUT WHAT'S GOING
ON WITH GLEN

AND THE GIFT THAT HE'S GIVING
AND THE GIFT HE'S RECEIVING,

AND HOW HE'S TOUCHING
PEOPLE'S LIVES,

AND HOW MANY PEOPLE WHO ARE
GOING THROUGH THIS

WITH THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS
FEEL SO SEEN

BECAUSE HE'S OPENING UP
SUCH A CONVERSATION.

-HE JUST GOES AROUND
BREAKING THE BARRIER.

HE -- HE WALKS AROUND,
AND HE SHAKES HANDS,

AND HE SAYS HI,
AND HE TELLS HIS JOKES,

AND HE TALKS LIKE DONALD DUCK,
AND HE MAKES PEOPLE SMILE.

-DO YOU EVER GET HUNG UP?

I GO AROUND NOW --
I WALK INTO THE --

IN THE KITCHEN TO GET SOMETHING,
RIGHT?

AND I GO, AND I SAID,

"NOW, WHAT DID I COME IN HERE
FOR," YOU KNOW?

I STOPPED IT.
I QUIT GOING INTO THE KITCHEN.

-IT'S AMAZING TO SEE HIM
BE VULNERABLE.

YOU KNOW, OUR CULTURE
DOESN'T REALLY ENCOURAGE US

TO DO THAT VERY MUCH.

I DON'T KNOW IF I WOULD BE ABLE

TO MAKE THE DECISION
TO BE THAT VULNERABLE.

-YOU WANT ME
TO INTRODUCE THESE --

WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE OVER HERE?

OH, YEAH.

THERE THEY ARE.

-JUST ME FOR NOW.

-OKAY.

THIS IS MY -- MY --

-OVER THERE.

-YEAH, MY -- MY KIDS AND FRIENDS

AND WHOEVER ELSE IS HERE.

-HI.

-MY DARLING, UH --

-INTRODUCE ME, DAD.

-HUH?
-INTRODUCE ME.

-I HAVE.
I GOT IT RIGHT HERE.

I HAD TO WRITE IT DOWN OR YOU
WOULD HAVE GOT IT FIRST.

-YOU'RE FUNNY.

-ANYWAY, MY DARLING DAUGHTER,
ASHLEY.

ASHLEY CAMPBELL, WITH HER --

SHE PLAYS BANJOS, SINGS,
GUITARS.

-WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

-HUH?

YOU WANT ME TO INTRODUCE
EVERYBODY NOW?

-NO. WE'RE GONNA DO THAT LATER.

WE'RE GONNA INTRODUCE
THE BAND LATER.

HOW ABOUT WE DUEL A LITTLE BIT?

YEAH.

-DUELING.

-YOU READY?

-OF COURSE.
I WAS BORN READY.

-THAT WASN'T EXACTLY THE GLEN
CAMPBELL THAT WE HAD KNOWN,

BUT HE STILL WAS.

OKAY, SO HE WANTED TO SING
"WICHITA LINEMAN" TWICE.

WHO GIVES A RAT'S ASS?
LET HIM SING IT TWICE.

AND HE WALKED OUT THERE,
AND HE PLAYED HIS ASS OFF.

AND THE CROWD LOVED IT.

I SAT THERE IN THE RYMAN
LAST NIGHT,

AND I CRIED, AND I LAUGHED,
AND I LEARNED.

HE'S STILL GLEN CAMPBELL.

-THE AUDIENCE BEING THERE
SOMEHOW TRIGGERS HIS --

HIS ABILITY TO ACCESS
THAT OTHER PART OF HIS BRAIN,

WHICH IS INCREDIBLE.

-I WATCHED THE FAMILY THERE
ON STAGE TOGETHER,

AND I WATCHED THEM PERFORMING.

I KNOW WHAT'S COMING
DOWN THE ROAD.

I JUST THINK ABOUT KIM.

I THINK ABOUT HER EVERY DAY

AND WHAT CHANGES SHE'S GOING
TO SEE IN THIS MAN

THAT'S JUST SO STRONG
AND HAPPY AND BIG.

AND -- AND HE'S WORTH
SO MUCH TO US,

AND I-I JUST KNOW THAT HE'S --
HE'S GONNA KIND OF SHRINK.

IT'S -- IT'S HEARTBREAKING.

-GLEN, LAST NIGHT AT THE RYMAN,

YOU SOMETIMES FORGOT WHAT KEY
IT WAS IN,

BUT YOU COULD ALWAYS REMEMBER
THE MELODY.

HOW IS THAT?

-I-I-I COULDN'T ANSWER IT,
BUT I CAN DO IT.

AND I CAN DO IT
WHEN I WANT TO DO IT.

IT'S AMAZING.

SOMETIMES I DON'T WANT TO DO IT.

NO, IT'S JUST SOMETHING THAT'S
IN YOUR SYSTEM THAT'S --

I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS.

I WISH -- I WISH I KNEW.

-LOOK OVER THERE.

-MM-HMM.

-WELL, DURING THE COURSE
OF OUR TOURING,

WE WOULD HAVE, YOU KNOW,
A FEW WEEKS HERE

OR A FEW DAYS THERE

WHERE WE'D GET TO
COME BACK TO MALIBU

AND TRY TO ENJOY A NORMAL LIFE.

-PLAY THE PIANO FOR ME.

OPEN AND CLOSE.

-I'M A GUITAR PLAYER.

-I CAN SEE.
OPEN AND CLOSE YOUR HANDS.

-YOU KNOW,
BUT WE'RE STILL DEALING

WITH THE LITTLE THINGS
EVERY DAY

THAT ARE SO DIFFICULT FOR GLEN,

LIKE "WHERE'S THE BATHROOM
IN YOUR OWN HOME?"

AND EVERY SECOND IS A CHALLENGE
FOR HIM.

-SO I THOUGHT WE'D START OUT
BY JUST ASKING YOU HOW YOU FEEL

AND HOW YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING.

-I JUST THANK THE LORD
FOR GIVING ME A GOOD --

WHAT DO YOU CALL IT?

-PRETTY GOOD HEALTH?

-YEAH.
I MEAN, JUST, YOU KNOW,

THERE AIN'T NOTHING WRONG
WITH ME.

I CAN STILL JUMP AS HIGH,

BUT I CAN'T STAY UP
AS LONG, THOUGH.

-HIS COORDINATION
SEEMS PRETTY GOOD.

HE'S DOING BUTTONS OR SHAVING,
THOSE SORTS OF THINGS.

-YEAH, HE'S DOING REALLY WELL.

-AND THEN WHAT ABOUT
THE BATHROOM HABIT?

IS THAT UNDER CONTROL,
OR MORE OR LESS?

-YEAH. IN FACT, THERE WERE MORE
PROBLEMS WITH THAT A YEAR AGO.

-RIGHT, I REMEMBER.

SO THAT RESOLVED, OR --

-IT RESOLVED.
IT STOPPED.

UM, YOU WERE -- YOU WERE, UM,

I THINK GETTING DISORIENTED IN
THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, AND --

-WHEN?

-ABOUT A YEAR AGO.

IN OUR BEDROOM, YOU WOULD GET UP
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT

AND PEE IN THE CORNER.

OR WE'D BE IN A HOTEL ROOM,

AND YOU'D GO
INTO THE BATHROOM --

-THAT WAS WHEN I WAS DRINKING.

-NO.

THERE MIGHT BE A TRASH CAN

SITTING RIGHT NEXT
TO THE TOILET,

AND YOU WOULD PEE IN THE TRASH
CAN INSTEAD OF THE TOILET.

-I -- HONEY, I SLEEPWALK,
IS WHAT THAT'S CALLED.

-MM-HMM.

-I WOULD.
I WOULD GET UP.

AND IF I DIDN'T -- IF I DIDN'T
JUST TRIP OVER IT, IT WAS A --

IT WAS A GOOD --
WHEN I TRIPPED OVER IT,

I SAID, "OH, GOOD GOSH,
I'M," YOU KNOW.

-WHEN'S THE LAST TIME GLEN
PERFORMED BEFORE AN AUDIENCE?

-WHAT? YESTERDAY.
WHEN WAS THAT?

-I THINK IT WAS, UH,
SATURDAY NIGHT.

-WHERE WAS THAT?

-YOU'RE GONNA BE
SEEING MENEXT.

-OKAY, UM, WE WERE
IN PENNSYLVANIA.

WE WERE IN MORRISBURG --
NO, WAIT.

-YEAH, IT WAS...

-SHIPPEN-- SHIPPENS--
SHIPPENSBURG, PENNSYLVANIA.

-HE'S STAYING BUSY, HUH?
-UH-HUH.

-AND GENERALLY, WOULD YOU SAY
HE'S DOING WELL

AND, FIRST OF ALL, ENJOYING --

-VERY GOOD.

-...AND ENJOYING
THE PERFORMANCE, RIGHT?

-HE IS LOVING IT.

HE IS REALLY HAVING A GOOD TIME
ON STAGE.

-SO THERE HAS BEEN SOME --

SOME DECLINE.

YOU KNOW, THE WAY GLEN PRESENTS
HIMSELF -- EXCELLENT.

BRIGHT, ALERT, INTERACTS WELL,
COMMUNICATES WELL.

AND, UM, WHERE I AM SURPRISED
IS HOW PRESERVED GLEN IS,

HOW ABLE HE IS TO PERFORM,

HOW ABLE HE IS TO COMMUNICATE
AND INTERACT.

I THINK HE IS DOING MUCH BETTER
THAN MOST PEOPLE.

UM, YOU ARE MAINTAINING
YOUR INTELLECTUAL ACTIVITY

BECAUSE YOU'RE DOING THE STUFF
THAT YOU LOVE TO DO

AND YOU'RE PERFORMING.

-THAT IS TRUE.

-AND I FEEL VERY CONFIDENT

THAT THAT'S A LARGE REASON

THAT YOU'RE DOING AS WELL
AS YOU'RE DOING.

BECAUSE YOUR MEMORY
DID DECLINE SOMEWHAT

SINCE I SAW YOU THE LAST TIME,

THAT'S THE REASON WE'RE GONNA
MAYBE BOOST THE DOSE

OF YOUR ARICEPT AT THIS POINT
AND SEE IF THAT HELPS.

THERE IS SOME DATA TO SUGGEST

THAT HE MIGHT GET A BIT
OF A COGNITIVE BOOST

FROM A -- FROM A STRONGER DOSE
OF ARICEPT,

SO I WOULD RECOMMEND IT.

-MIGHT HELP YOUR MEMORY A LITTLE
BIT, AND YOUR THINKING.

MAKE YOU SHARPER.

-I'VE BEEN TRYING TO GET RID
OF IT FOR THE LAST 40 YEARS.

-YOU'RE DOING A GOOD JOB.

I DEFINITELY THINK THERE ARE
PARTS OF GLEN'S LIFE

THAT HE WOULD LIKE TO FORGET,

AND I THINK THAT'S WHY HE HAD
AN ALCOHOL PROBLEM

WHEN I FIRST MET HIM.

I THINK HE WAS DRINKING TO
FORGET THE PAIN OF DIVORCES

AND MAYBE THE GUILT
OF THE CHILDREN

THAT WERE INVOLVED
IN THOSE DIVORCES.

HE FELT REALLY BAD
THAT HE WASN'T THERE

TO BE A FATHER FOR THEM.

-I'M HERE TO SEE GLEN CAMPBELL.

I'VE BEEN A FAN SINCE 1967.

UM, I HAVE EVERY --
EVERY ALBUM HE EVER MADE,

AND I'M SO HAPPY THAT I'M GONNA
BE ABLE TO SEE HIM

PERHAPS, PROBABLY,
FOR THE LAST TIME.

-I'M SO GLAD
THAT HE HAS THE COURAGE

TO GO AND DO THIS FAREWELL TOUR

WHICH IS GOING ON
FOR MONTHS AND MONTHS.

I'M REALLY LOOKING FORWARD
TO IT.

-I MEAN, I THINK TODAY,

WHEN YOU GET A DIAGNOSIS
LIKE ALZHEIMER'S,

IT SCARES PEOPLE.

BUT IT YOU JUST THINK
OF IT LIKE --

LIKE PEOPLE USED TO THINK OF IT

BEFORE YOU EVER EVEN HEARD
OF ALZHEIMER'S --

LIKE, "OLD GRANDPA'S
GETTING FORGETFUL."

-RIGHT. "STARTING TO LOSE
MY MEMORY A LITTLE BIT."

-THAT'S PART OF LIFE, YOU KNOW.

AND YOU JUST GO WITH IT AND HAVE
FUN WITH IT, LAUGH AT YOURSELF.

THANK YOU, NEW YORK CITY!

-WORKING SEEMS TO REALLY
STIMULATE HIS MIND,

AND HE REALLY SEEMS TO ENJOY IT.

AND THERE'S -- THERE'S A FUNNY
THING THAT HE DOES

WHEN HE'S GETTING THIS ADULATION
FROM THE AUDIENCE.

HE KIND OF -- YOU SEE HIM
PATTING THE BACK OF HIS HEAD,

AND HE'S EXPLAINED THAT TO ME.

IT'S, UM, THE HAIR GOES BACK UP
ON HIS NECK,

LIKE, UH, GOOSE BUMPS.

AND SO HE'S JUST --
HE'S JUST, LIKE --

THAT'S HIS WAY OF TELLING US
HE'S GOT THE GOOSE BUMPS

AND HE'S REALLY FEELING --

FEELING THE ENERGY
FROM THE CROWD.

I REALLY WISHED

PEOPLE EITHER DON'T KNOW

THEY SORT OF -- SO MANY PEOPLE

KNOW HIM

THEY MIGHT ATTACH TO GLEN.

AND THEN YOU START GOING BACK

INTO THE EARLY PART
OF HIS CAREER,

AND YOU FIND THIS INCREDIBLE
SESSION PLAYER.

THEN YOU FIND, UH, A GUY
WHO WAS HOSTING

ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR TV SHOWS

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,
GLEN CAMPBELL!

-WELL, I WAS A YOUNG WRITER

ON "THE GLEN CAMPBELL
GOODTIME HOUR."

AND WE ALL JUST IMMEDIATELY
ADMIRED HIS TALENT.

-GLEN CAMPBELL'S SUCH AN
IMPORTANT PART OF OUR FAMILY.

MY DAD WAS WORKING
FOR AN INDEPENDENT BOOK

AND RECORD PROMOTER
BACK IN THE DAY.

THROUGH THE YEARS, THEY BECAME
REALLY GOOD FRIENDS,

AND 'ROUND '67, '68,
MY DAD WENT INDEPENDENT,

AND GLEN SAID, "HEY, WE WANT
TO PUT YOU ON RETAINER.

IF WE HAVE A HIT,
WE'LL BE WITH YOU FOREVER."

THERE WERE TIMES WHERE
THE ONLY CHECK THAT MONTH

WAS FROM GLEN CAMPBELL.

SO THAT'LL ALWAYS MEAN
THE WORLD TO ME.

A BIG DEAL TO SING IT FOR HIM.

IT'S A WAY BIGGER DEAL FOR ME
TO SING IT WITH HIM.

I MEAN, I THINK,

ONE OF THESE DAYS
THAT THIS IS --

THIS IS GONNA BE ONE OF THOSE
MOMENTS I LOOK BACK AT

AND -- AND POINT AT AS ONE OF
THE HIGH POINTS, YOU KNOW.

-BEAUTIFUL SINGING VOICE --
THAT PURE TONE

IT WAS NEVER FANCY.

LIKE THE MAJOR LEAGUE'S

HE WAS GOOD LOOKING,

HE COULD PLAY GUITAR,

ABOUT PLAYING TONIGHT?

-WONDERFUL.

AM I PLAYING TONIGHT?

-GLEN CAMPBELL HAS BEEN MAKING
MUSIC HISTORY FOR DECADES,

AND HE STILL IS.

HE TOOK COUNTRY MUSIC
TO NEW HEIGHTS

AND BECAME A GLOBAL SUPERSTAR,

NOT JUST ON THE RADIO,
BUT IN MOVIES AND TV, TOO.

-OH, A LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT.
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

-THEY HONORED YOU
FOR ALL YOUR LIFE'S WORK.

YOU GOT A STANDING OVATION.

-DID I?

-YEP. YOU SURE DID.

YEAH, I -- THERE'S A POINT NOW

WHERE I HAVE TO HELP HIM
WITH THE CLUB.

I'LL TELL HIM
WHAT YARDAGE IT IS,

AND, UH, GOING BACK
A COUPLE MONTHS,

HE'D ALWAYS SAY, "WHAT YARDAGE?"

AND THEN HE'D PICK HIS CLUB OUT.

NOW HE JUST STARES AT THE CLUBS
MOST OF THE TIME,

AND I HAVE TO PICK A CLUB OUT
FOR HIM.

-OW.

--BUT THE GOOD THING IS, YOU
KNOW, HE DOESN'T CARE TOO MUCH.

HE'LL GET MAD FOR A SECOND
IF HE HITS A BAD SHOT.

THEN HE'LL FORGET
EVEN WHAT SHOT HE HIT,

IF IT WAS GOOD OR BAD.

SO MOST TIME, WE SAY,
"IT WAS A GREAT SHOT,"

AND HE'LL SAY, "YEAH?

-HEY!
HOW ABOUT THAT?

-GOOD SHOT, GLEN.

-NICE SHOT.
GO IN THE HOLE.

-SHORT.
YEAH, IT IS.

-SO, UNFORTUNATELY, ALZHEIMER'S
ATTACKS ALL PARTS OF THE BRAIN.

AND WE WOULD EXPECT
MUSICAL SKILLS,

TOGETHER WITH OTHER
INTELLECTUAL SKILLS,

TO DECLINE DURING THE COURSE
OF ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE.

-OH, I HIT THAT SO HARD.

-ULTIMATELY WHAT HAPPENS
IS THAT THE PATIENTS

NO LONGER HAVE
THE COGNITIVE CAPACITY

TO UNDERSTAND WHAT IS BEING
SPOKEN TO THEM.

AS THINGS GET WORSE,

THEY START TO FORGET THE NAMES
OF FAMILY MEMBERS.

THEY BECOME CONFUSED ABOUT
FAMILY AND SOCIAL RELATIONSHIPS.

-THE GRASS IS SLIPPERY.

-AS THINGS REALLY DETERIORATE,

LANGUAGE FUNCTION CAN BECOME
PROFOUNDLY IMPAIRED.

THE PATIENTS HAVE DIFFICULTY
EXPRESSING THEMSELVES.

ON OCCASION, PATIENTS,
WHEN THEY PROGRESS,

DEVELOP HALLUCINATIONS
OR DELUSIONS.

AND UNFORTUNATELY GLEN IS
ENTERING A STAGE WHERE HIS --

HIS COGNITION IS GETTING WORSE.

HOW IS IT POSSIBLE
THAT HE COULD BE SO ABLE

IN HIS MUSICAL SKILLS?

IN GLEN'S CASE, HE STILL HAS

SUCH A DEVELOPED MUSIC AREA
IN HIS BRAIN

THAT HE'S ABLE TO PULL IT OFF
AND ENTERTAIN THE PUBLIC.

SOMEHOW, THAT MUSICAL SKILL,
THAT MUSICAL TALENT,

IF IT'S ACTIVATED,
CAN HAVE A SPREADING EFFECT

AND HELP THEIR FUNCTION
GLOBALLY

IN TERMS OF THEIR INTELLECT.

-SINGING IS A LOT BETTER
THAN GOLFING.

-LET'S SEE.

-I WANT SOME SHORTS OUT OF THIS.

-THAT'S OUTDOOR FURNITURE
FABRIC.

-OH, I DON'T CARE.
I KNOW WHAT IT IS.

IT COULD BE GLEN CAMPBELL FABRIC
IF I WANTED.

-YEAH?

-THAT'S RIGHT.
WOULDN'T THIS BE NICE?

-DO YOU WANT A COUPLE EGGS
AND TOAST?

-YEAH.

THAT'S COOL, HONEY.

-IS THAT TOO BUSY?

ALL RIGHT, SO YOU WANT SOME
SHORTS OUT OF THAT, HUH?

-YEAH, I'D LIKE TO HAVE
SOME SHORTS LIKE THAT.

-WELL, I MIGHT BE TEMPTED TO SIT
ON YOU ON THE PATIO.

-OKAY.

-WHEN WE WENT
TO DR. COHEN'S OFFICE,

AND HE SAYS, "I'M GONNA DOUBLE
HIS ARICEPT,

AND I THINK THAT THAT MIGHT
GIVE HIM A BOOST."

WELL, IT DID --
IN A DIFFERENT AREA.

IT WAS LIKE GIVING HIM,

YOU KNOW,
VIAGRA FOUR TIMES A DAY.

HE JUST WOULD NOT
LEAVE ME ALONE.

SO I CALLED DR. COHEN,
AND HE SAID,

"WELL, GO BACK
TO THE ORIGINAL DOSE."

SO -- SO WE DID.

BUT WE'VE BEEN EXPERIMENTING
WITH, YOU KNOW, THINGS

TO DEAL WITH THAT LIBIDO, TOO.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON
IN THAT BRAIN,

BUT DEPENDING ON HOW YOU LOOK --
LOOK AT IT,

I GUESS THERE'S AN UPSIDE
TO ALZHEIMER'S.

-WITH ALZHEIMER'S --

I THINK THAT'S PROBABLY
ONE OF THE WORST THINGS,

THAT PEOPLE HAVE THAT, YOU KNOW.

AND I THINK IF WE CAN --
IF WE CAN ACTUALLY DO --

GET IT OUT WHAT IS WRONG
WITH THAT STUFF,

IT'S LIKE, IT'S JUST --
IT WOULD BE --

WHAT AN INCREDIBLE BLESSING
THAT WOULD BE,

IF WE COULD GET --
GET PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND THAT

AND HELP THE PEOPLE WHO ARE --
WHO DO HAVE ALZHEIMER'S.

I THINK THAT WOULD JUST BE
THE GREATEST THING IN THE WORLD

IF IT COULD HAPPEN.

-THAT CAME FROM YOUR HEART.

TALKING ABOUT IT.

DO YOU EVER GET THE BLUES?

-MM.
YEAH, I DO.

-WE'RE GOING TO THE FIRST FLOOR.

-THE ESTIMATES ARE, BY 2050,

THE NUMBER WILL RISE FROM
THE CURRENT 36 MILLION GLOBALLY

TO 115 MILLION ALZHEIMER'S
PATIENTS AROUND THE GLOBE.

-YOU'RE DOING MORE
FOR ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE.

IT'S SO INSPIRING.

-HELLO.

-FOR FIVE DECADES,

GLEN CAMPBELL HAS INSPIRED
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.

NOW GLEN HAS FOUND ANOTHER WAY
TO INSPIRE US --

THROUGH HIS COURAGEOUS EFFORT TO
RAISE AWARENESS OF ALZHEIMER'S.

-HOW ARE YOU?
HI, GLEN.

-HOW YOU DOING?

-GOOD. HOW'S IT GOING?
-WONDERFUL!

-AND THIS ISSUE THAT YOU'VE COME
TO TALK ABOUT,

IT'S ABOUT THE BUDGET,
AFTER ALL IS SAID AND DONE,

BECAUSE NOBODY --
EVERYONE WILL SAY,

"WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING
ABOUT ALZHEIMER'S,"

BUT HOW MUCH OF A PRIORITY IS IT
FOR YOU IN THE BUDGET?

AND EDDIE HAS BEEN
SUCH A CHAMPION,

AS YOU KNOW, PROBABLY,
HIS PERSONAL STORY.

-AFTER MY MOTHER PASSED AWAY
FROM ALZHEIMER'S,

I VOWED THAT I WOULD CREATE, UM,
A CONSCIOUSNESS IN CONGRESS.

LAST YEAR, WE SPENT $140 BILLION
ON ALZHEIMER'S PATIENTS.

AND BY THE TIME ALL
THE BABY BOOMERS ARE RETIRED,

IT'S $15 OR $16 MILLION,

WHICH WOULD RAISE THE TOTAL COST
UP TO $600 BILLION,

WHICH WOULD BE THE SAME AS
THE DEFENSE BUDGET THIS YEAR.

SO, ONE -- ONE BOMBER

CARRYING NUCLEAR WEAPONS
IS 1/4 OF THE COST --

THAT IS, $500 MILLION,

WHICH IS THE TOTAL BUDGET
WE HAVE

JUST FOR TRYING
TO FIND THE CURE.

SO HOW DO WE PROTECT
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE,

WITH MORE BOMBERS OR PUTTING
THE RESEARCH INTO ALZHEIMER'S,

WHERE THEIR FAMILIES
ARE REALLY THREATENED,

AND THE BUDGET BECOMES
UN-BALANCE-ABLE?

-THE MORE THE PUBLIC IS AWARE

AND IT'S JUST A DECISION
THAT WE HAVE TO MAKE,

THE BETTER OFF AND THE HEALTHIER
AMERICA WILL BE,

ESPECIALLY IN TERMS
OF ALZHEIMER'S.

SO WE COULD NOT BE BETTER SERVED
THAN GLEN CAMPBELL.

I MEAN, GETTING ON STAGE
AND SINGING, THAT MUST BE FUN.

RIGHT?

COMING TO CONGRESSIONAL
OFFICES...

THAT'S REALLY GENEROUS.

-SO, GLEN, YOU KNOW WHERE
YOU'RE PLAYING TONIGHT?

TELL 'EM WHERE YOU'RE PLAYING.

-THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS.
-THAT'S RIGHT.

-YOU KNOW, BY THE TIME I BECAME
GOVERNOR IN THE LATE '70s,

HE WAS ALREADY A MAJOR FIGURE
IN AMERICAN MUSIC,

AND I KNEW THAT HE WAS
FROM DELIGHT,

WHICH IS CLOSE
TO WHERE I GREW UP.

HE HAS BROUGHT A CLARITY
TO THIS ISSUE.

WE DON'T SPEND NEARLY ENOUGH
MONEY ON ALZHEIMER'S RESEARCH.

WE DON'T REALLY HAVE ANY WAY
OF SLOWING THE PROGRESSION

OF THE DISEASE.

IT'S GONNA BE A MASSIVE PROBLEM,

AND WE JUST NEED TO GET
A BIG MAJORITY OF THE CONGRESS

ONBOARD WITH THE IDEA

THAT FEDERAL RESEARCH DOLLARS
ARE ESSENTIAL

IN THE BIOMEDICAL AREAS.
THEY JUST ARE.

YOU CAN'T POSSIBLY GET ANYTHING

APPROACHING THE LEVEL
OF INVESTMENT YOU NEED

ON A PROBLEM THIS BIG

JUST BY HAVING
THE PRIVATE COMPANIES

TRYING TO COME UP
WITH SOME NEW DRUG

THAT WILL SLOW THE MARCH
OF ALZHEIMER'S OR REVERSE IT.

THIS TOUR OF HIS JUST SAYS,
"HERE I AM.

"HERE'S WHAT'S HAPPENING TO ME.

"I'M GOING OUT WITH A SMILE ON
MY FACE AND A SONG IN MY HEART,

"AND I'M SHARING IT WITH YOU
SO YOU WILL KNOW.

YOU WILL KNOW."

AND, UH, THAT MAY BE MORE
OF HIS ENDURING LEGACY

THAN ALL THE MUSIC HE MADE.

-AN EMOTIONAL MOMENT
IN WASHINGTON TODAY

WHERE ASHLEY CAMPBELL
TOLD SENATORS

WHAT ALZHEIMER'S IS DOING
TO HER FATHER.

THAT'S BECAUSE SHE HAPPENS
TO BE THE DAUGHTER

OF THE LEGENDARY SINGER
GLEN CAMPBELL.

-I THINK A PERSON'S LIFE
IS COMPRISED OF MEMORIES,

AND THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT THIS
DISEASE TAKES AWAY FROM YOU,

LIKE A MEMORY OF MY DAD TAKING
ME FISHING IN FLAGSTAFF

WHEN I WAS A LITTLE GIRL,

OR PLAYING BANJO WITH MY DAD
WHILE HE PLAYS GUITAR.

NOW WHEN I PLAY BANJO
WITH MY DAD,

UM IT'S GETTING
HARDER FOR HIM TO FOLLOW ALONG.

AND IT'S GETTING HARDER FOR HIM
TO RECALL MY NAME.

IT'S HARD TO COME TO
THE REALIZATION THAT SOMEDAY,

MY DAD MIGHT LOOK AT ME,

AND I WILL BE ABSOLUTELY
NOTHING TO HIM.

-WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
BOO!

CAL?

-PBHT!

SAY, "OKEYDOKEY, PAPA."

-OKEYDOKEY.

-"PAPA."

-PAPA.

-ARE YOU ASKING ME?

-CAL, FIRST CHILD.

YOU GOT CAL...

YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE SAYING IT!

-YOU WANT TO KNOW WHO'S
THE SECOND OF OUR CHILDREN?

-YEAH, JUST GO RIGHT DOWN.

-CAL, SHANNON, AND...?

-WHAT?

-CAL, SHANNON,
AND...OUR DAUGHTER.

-IF I --

-ASHLEY. ASHLEY.

SAY, "I'M 5h MONTHS OLD."

-ASHLEY GETS THE FIRST PIECE.

"HEY, SON."
HE CALLED EVERYBODY "SON."

-UH-HUH.

WHO IS THIS?
YOUR DAD?

-I-I-I -- LONG --
IT WAS A LONG TIME AGO.

HE CALLED EVERYBODY "SON."
"HEY, SON."

THE GUY?

-YOUR DAD?
YOUR GRANDPA?

-NO, NO.
FROM -- AT NASHVILLE.

"HEY, HOSS."

AND HE WENT TO --

I WENT TO THAT, WHATEVER
THAT IS, WITH HIM.

-I THINK I CRIED THE FIRST WEEK.

IT GOT ME.

STILL DOES.

SO, THIS WAS A MAN
MY HERO.

HAD A MIND LIKE A STEEL TRAP.

AND TO SEE HIM TO THE POINT
THAT HE CAN'T REMEMBER MY NAME,

WELL, THAT -- THAT GOT ME.

-MY FATHER-IN-LAW PASSED AWAY
FROM ALZHEIMER'S,

SO WE WERE LIKE THIS.

AND SO I'VE SEEN IT
IN EVERY, EVERY STAGE,

FROM THAT FIRST DAY

WHEN SUDDENLY SOMEBODY LOOKS
AT SOMETHING AND GOES,

YOU KNOW, "WHAT'S THIS?"

AND IT'S A LOCK,
AND THEY DON'T, YOU KNOW --

AND THEN TO WHERE
IT SNOWS OVERNIGHT

AND, "HOW DID THATGET HERE?

WHAT IS THAT?" YOU KNOW?

-MY FATHER PASSED AWAY
WHEN HE WAS 70.

-WOW. HE WAS YOUNG.

-HE WAS YOUNG, YEAH.

HE WAS JUST 70 YEARS OLD.

THE PART OF THE BRAIN THAT WAS
AFFECTED AT FIRST WAS,

YOU KNOW -- THIS IS A WHITE CUP,

BUT HE COULDN'T SAY
IT'S A WHITE CUP.

HE WOULD SAY
MAYBE IT'S A BLACK CUP

OR IT'S --
OR HE COULDN'T GET IT OUT.

AND IT REALLY FRUSTRATED HIM.

-MY MOM DIDN'T -- IT DIDN'T
HAPPEN THAT WAY WITH HER.

BUT WE DID WATCH HER GO
BACKWARDS THROUGH HER LIFE.

ONE NIGHT,
IT WAS TIME TO GO TO BED,

AND MY DAD WAS IN THE KING-SIZE
BED ON ONE SIDE,

AND SHE WAS JUST LIKE, "OH, NO.

"THERE'S A MAN IN THERE,
AND, YOU KNOW, MY PARENTS,

"THEY WOULD NEVERGO FOR THIS.

I -- ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
I'M NOT GOING IN THERE."

-I HAD A GRANDMOTHER WHO IS IN
A NURSING HOME NOW,

DOESN'T KNOW ME.

HE MOTHER DIED
IN A NURSING HOME,

DIDN'T KNOW HER.

-AND IT AFFECTS DIFFERENT
PEOPLE DIFFERENTLY.

YOU KNOW, THERE'S NOT --

IT'S NOT LIKE ONE,
"OH, THAT'S WHAT IT IS."

WHEN IT COMES TO THE BRAIN,
DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE BRAIN --

THE MEMORY LOSS,
IT'S MOTOR SKILLS.

-AT FIRST,
IT WOULD MAKE ME ANGRY

'CAUSE HE WOULD NOT LISTEN
TO ME.

"DON'T DO THAT.
THAT'S NOT POLITE.

DON'T LICK YOUR PLATE."

YOU KNOW, "HERE,
TAKE A PIECE OF BREAD."

"LEAVE ME ALONE."
HE'D FIGHT ME ABOUT IT.

-I'M TELLING YOU.
THAT'S GOOD, BOY. WOW.

-I WOULD GET ANGRY, AND I WOULD
JUST TAKE MY PLATE,

AND I'D GO EAT IN THE PANTRY
ON A LITTLE STOOL,

JUST IN THERE BY MYSELF,

'CAUSE I JUST REFUSED TO LOOK
AT HIM THAT WAY.

-YOU KNOW, MY MOM COULDN'T
REALLY HAVE A CONVERSATION,

EVEN THOUGH SHE STILL KNEW ME,

SO WE'D SIT ON THE COUCH
AND WE'D WATCH TV.

AND I'D SIT WITH HER FEET
IN MY LAP AND PRAY.

I WOULD JUST PRAY FOR GRACE.

-BUT I THINK THAT'S JUST PART
OF MY DEFENSE MECHANISM.

I DO NOT WANT TO SEE HIM
BEING AN INVALID.

I DON'T WANT TO SEE HIM
DEGENERATING.

YOU KNOW,

I DON'T WANT TO SEE GLEN, UM...

IN THAT CONDITION.
YOU KNOW?

I THINK, UH --

I THINK IT'S BETTER
TO DIE FROM SOMETHING ELSE.

-MY MOTHER IS YOUNG ENOUGH --
SHE'S IN HER 60s NOW --

THAT SHE'S YOUNG ENOUGH

THAT WE DON'T HAVE ANY SIGNS
OF THAT YET, THANK GOD.

BUT IT'S A VERY GOOD CHANCE,
AND THEN I'M PROBABLY NEXT.

SO IT'S -- IT'S LIKE, "LET'S
FIGURE THIS OUT, CAN YOU?

"I'M 41.

"FIGURE THIS OUT
BEFORE I'M 70, PLEASE.

SOMEBODY FIND THAT GENE
AND TURN IT OFF."

-WE HAD A FEW DAYS OFF.

MY DAD WANTED TO GO AND SEE
HIS FAMILY IN ARKANSAS,

SO WE HAD THIS BIG
FAMILY REUNION IN DELIGHT.

AND IT WAS JUST SO BEAUTIFUL.

-IT'S OL' PUMPKIN BUDS!

-I KNOW.
HOW YOU DOING?

-♪ I TURNED MY COLLAR
TO THE WIND ♪

♪ STARTED HOME AGAIN

-I'VE GOT A -- A LOCKER FULL
OF WRITE-UPS ON HIM.

IF YOU SEE 'EM,
YOU WOULDN'T BELIEVE IT,

YOU KNOW,
'CAUSE I'M HIS BIGGEST FAN.

I'M 250 POUNDS.

-♪ WELL, I'VE SEEN EVERYTHING

-WHEN DID YOU FIRST NOTICE THAT
HE WAS HAVING MEMORY PROBLEMS?

-IT WAS BACK IN DECEMBER,

BUT IT MORE OR LESS
HIS SHORT-TERM.

HIS LONG-TERM WAS FINE.

-LIKE, WHAT DID YOU NOTICE?

-UH, JUST REPEATING.

-I-I JUST WANT TO SAY HOW --
SO HAPPY TO BE OUT HERE TODAY.

OKAY, I WON'T CRY.

UM...

GOD, THANK YOU ALL.

IT'S JUST SO -- ALL THE BABIES,

BROTHERS AND SISTERS
AND KINFOLKS AND FRIENDS

AND, YEAH, OL' PUMPKIN.

♪ WHEN EACH STEP I TOOK
TOOK ME... ♪

-NOW WHEN I SEE MY DAD,
IT'S JUST --

YOU KNOW, ALL THERE IS TO SAY
IS "I LOVE YOU."

I MEAN, IN THE FINAL ANALYSIS,

I ALL COMES DOWN TO,
"I LOVE YOU," AND HUG HIM.

-HE IS THE SWEETEST, KINDEST,
MOST LOVING MAN

THAT I'VE HAD THE PLEASURE
TO HAVE IN MY LIFE

AND BE MY FATHER.

-TAKE IT, LITTLE MAN!

-HE REALLY, TRULY
IS A COUNTRY BOY.

-GOT ABOUT 400 ACRES HERE.

AND SO THIS IS OUR PLACE ON BOTH
SIDES OF THE CREEK HERE.

-THAT'S THE HOUSE GLEN BUILT
FOR GRANDMA AND GRANDPA

BACK IN THE '60s.

-HE BUILT THAT THERE
FOR MAMA AND DADDY.

-THERE'S THE CHURCH OF CHRIST.

HE BUILT IT IN FRONT OF SO
GRANDMA COULD WALK TO CHURCH.

-YEAH, OUR DADDY'S MOTHER,
UH, BURIED HERE.

THIS IS CAMPBELL CEMETERY
IN ARKANSAS.

WE HAVE A LOT OF VISITORS
COME BY HERE

AND, UH, SEE, UH,
DADDY AND MOTHER'S GRAVE --

KNOW THAT IT'S
GLEN CAMPBELL'S DADDY.

-WE WERE RAISED IN
A VERY RELIGIOUS HOUSEHOLD.

MY PARENTS ARE BOTH
VERY STRONG BELIEVERS.

AND, LIKE, EVERY TIME I WOULD
GO OUT OF THE HOUSE,

HE'D SAY SOMETHING
ALONG THE LINES OF,

"YOU BE GOOD
AND HONOR THE LORD."

-I KNOW GOD IS ALWAYS WITH US,

AND GOD ALLOWS THINGS TO HAPPEN
FOR WHATEVER REASONS.

WE DON'T UNDERSTAND HIS WAYS.

GOD HAS ALWAYS BEEN WHAT'S GIVEN
ME STRENGTH TO FACE EACH DAY.

I'M JUST TRUSTING HIM FOR THE --

THE REST OF OUR -- OUR JOURNEY.

WELL, THE BIBLE SAYS,
"A MERRY HEART

WORKS LIKE A GOOD MEDICINE."

-"AND BITTERNESS IS LIKE DRYNESS
TO THE BONES."

SO, IT'S JUST HEALTHY
ALL THE WAY AROUND

TO KEEP A MERRY HEART.

YOU'LL BE HEALTHY AND NOT
JUST FIGHT ALZHEIMER'S,

BUT TO FIGHT ANYTHING
YOU'RE UP AGAINST

IF YOU CAN KEEP
A GOOD SENSE OF HUMOR.

-YAY!

-HONEY, DO YOU REALLY NEED THAT?

-YES, I WANT IT.

-IT'LL MAKE YOU MUCH SAFER
WHEN YOU GO RUNNING.

-COOL, MAN.

THAT'S GREAT.
MAN, THIS IS WONDERFUL.

-THAT'S A GREAT IDEA, HONEY.

YEAH, THAT WAY,
IF YOU GO MISSING AT NIGHT,

I CAN SEE YOU WHEN I DRIVE UP
WITH MY HEADLIGHTS.

DO YOU THINK THAT'LL FIT
A GIANT SCHNAUZER AS WELL?

-IS THAT THE SCHNAUZER YOU GOT?

-THAT SHOULD FIT?
OKAY, YEAH.

ALL RIGHT.

-SO, IT'S $8.59.

-OKAY.

-DID YOU KNOW THAT THIS IS --
THIS IS A --

-NO, HE'S GONNA WEAR IT.

-HE DOESN'T NEED A BAG.

-HE'S GONNA WEAR IT OUT.

-THIS IS JUST WONDERFUL.

WHAT?

-GOT TO GET YOU IN AND OUT
OF THE SHOWER FOR THE SHOW.

YOU GOT A SHOW TO DO.
-YEAH.

-GOT TO GET YOU IN AND OUT
OF THE SHOWER.

-NO.

-YEAH, LET'S GO.

-NO, I DON'T --

I'VE DONE THIS.
I'VE BEEN THROUGH THIS.

-NOPE.

IT'S REALLY HARD TO GET HIM
TO TAKE A SHOWER

'CAUSE HE -- HE'S ALWAYS COLD.

I ALWAYS SAY
HE'S LIKE KING DAVID.

KING DAVID IN THE BIBLE,
IN HIS OLDER YEARS,

HE JUST COULD NOT STAY WARM.

SO THEY GOT HIM A YOUNG VIRGIN
TO SLEEP WITH HIM.

BUT THAT'S NOT HAPPENING

SO I JUST HAVE
TO KEEP HIM WARM.

AND, YOU KNOW, I'LL TURN THE
HAIR DRYER ON IN THE BATHROOM

AND WARM IT UP.

-I'VE ALWAYS KNOWN THAT MY MOM
WAS A VERY STRONG WOMAN,

AND I THINK SHE'S HANDLED
THIS SITUATION

EXACTLY LIKE I EXPECTED HER TO.

HE IS INCREDIBLY BLESSED
TO HAVE HER IN HIS LIFE.

-LOOK WHAT HE FOUND, CLANCE.

CLANCY!
-WHAT?

-LOOK WHAT HE FOUND.

-AH?

-DID YOU FIND SOMETHING
TO GET IT?

-YEAH.

-DID YOU GET TO IT?

-YEAH, I CAN...

IF EVERYBODY
WOULD LEAVE ME ALONE.

-I AIN'T BOTHERING YOU.

BUT I WILL.

-NO, YOU WON'T.

-IF I HURT YOU,
I'LL LEAVE YOU WITH ONE.

-HEY!
YOU LEAVE MEONE.

HERE.

-WHAT YOU NEED TO DO
IS GO TO THE DENTIST

DOWN THE STREET
AND HAVE HIM FIX IT.

-NO!

AND I AIN'T GONNA DO IT, EITHER.

I KNOW WHAT IT IS THERE!

-SO THOSE THINGS ARE REALLY
FRUSTRATING FOR ME

BECAUSE I TRY TO HELP HIM,

BUT THERE'S JUST SOMETHING
IN HIS MIND

THAT I'M NOT DOING RIGHT,

AND HE CAN'T DO IT,
AND HE GETS FRUSTRATED,

AND THEN HE GETS ANGRY.

-I'M TELLING YOU, MAN.

-HEY, DADDY.

-YOU JUST HAD A KNIFE
IN YOUR MOUTH

ON THE BUS A FEW MINUTES AGO.

-I DID NOT!

-YES, YOU DID.

-NO BLAME, NO NOTHING!

IF I DONE, I WOULD HAVE HAD IT
DONE BY NOW!

I CAN MOVE IT WITH MY TONGUE.

I JUST CAN'T PULL IT OUT,
AND IT'S DRIVING ME NUTS!

-OKAY.

-YOU -- YOU --
YOU DON'T KNOW, UNDERSTAND.

YOU CAN'T SEE IT, CAN YOU?

-NO.

-LOOK.
-LET ME SEE.

-I KNOW WHERE IT IS!
-I KNOW.

-HE WENT UPSTAIRS,

AND MY MOM WENT UPSTAIRS
WITH HIM,

AND HE WOULDN'T LET IT GO.

AND THEN, ALL OF A SUDDEN,
HE JUST DROPPED IT.

AND THEN HE CAME BACK DOWNSTAIRS
A COUPLE MINUTES LATER,

AND HE GOES, "WELL,
WHEN DID YOUGET HERE?

HI, HONEY.
HOW ARE YOU?"

AND HE HUGGED ME,
AND HE WAS LOVEY-DOVEY,

AND HE'S LIKE, "BOY, I'M TIRED.
I'M GONNA GO TO BED."

MAN.

IT'S LIKE, UM...

FORGIVENESS WITHOUT
RECONCILIATION.

IT'S TIME TO GET UP.

I'M GETTING IT WARM FOR YOU.

IT'S TIME TO GET UP
AND GO DO A BIG SHOW.

CARNEGIE HALL.

-I GOTTA GET SOME REST.

-YOU GOT TO GET --
YOU HAD A LONG NAP.

NOW IT'S TIME TO GET UP
AND GO DO A BIG SHOW.

-JUST PUT YOUR ORANGE ONES
IN ANOTHER PAIR OF SHOES.

-HUH?

-YOU HAVE A LOT OF DIFFERENT
PAIRS OF SHOES.

-SHOESTRINGS.

-WHAT?
-SHOESTRINGS.

-NO.

WHAT IS THAT, HONEY?

-IT'S A SHOE,

I LOVE YOU SO.

I LOVE YOU SO, HONEY.

-WELL, WE HAD DONE A SERIES OF
SHOWS THAT WENT PRETTY WELL.

WE WENT UP TO CHICAGO

TO DO, UM, AN ALZHEIMER'S
FOUNDATION DINNER.

HE HAD A REALLY HARD TIME

PERFORMING ANYTHING
AT THAT DINNER.

-♪ SOME DAYS
I'M SO CONFUSED, LORD ♪

YOU'RE MY DARLIN'.

-THIS IS NOT A FUN ILLNESS.

IT'S A -- IT'S A REALLY
CHALLENGING ILLNESS

FOR PEOPLE TO DEAL WITH

ON, YOU KNOW, EVERY MOMENT
OF THEIR LIFE.

HE CAN'T FIND THE BATHROOM
IN HIS OWN HOUSE.

AND THE OTHER NIGHT, UM,

HE CAME TO BED IN THE MIDDLE
OF THE NIGHT,

AND THE LIGHT WAS SHINING
ON THE WHITE BED,

BUT DOWN ON THE FLOOR BENEATH,

HE WOULDN'T WALK OVER THERE

BECAUSE HE SAID
THERE WAS A HOLE.

AND I SAID, "NO, NO.
IT'S FLOOR.

"YOU CAN TRUST ME.
YOU CAN WALK OVER HERE.

JUST KEEP COMING," YOU KNOW?

EVERY DAY'S A CHALLENGE FOR ME.

I FIGHT DEPRESSION,

AND, UM, IT'S JUST, YOU KNOW,
REALLY INTENSELY SAD

TO SEE SOMEBODY YOU LOVE
STRUGGLE.

'CAUSE GENERALLY, HE CLINGS
TO ME LIKE I'M HIS ANCHOR

FOR "WHO AM I, WHERE AM I?"

YOU KNOW, HIS --
I'M HIS SAFETY BLANKET

THAT HE WANTS ME AROUND
ALL THE TIME.

OKAY, SWEETHEART.

I PROMISE WE'LL GET --

WE'LL FIND THEM ALL,

WE'LL GET THEM BACK ON THE BED
WHERE YOU LEFT 'EM.

-WHAT?

-THEY'RE RIGHT THERE.

THEY'RE RIGHT NEXT TO THE BED.

-NOW, IF YOU GO ON ALL THE
WEBSITES ABOUT ALZHEIMER'S,

THIS IS VERY TYPICAL.

THEY BECOME PARANOID,

AND THEY THINK PEOPLE
ARE STEALING FROM THEM.

-THIS AIN'T HIS!

HE'S HAD THEM FOR A...

I GOT TWO...

-THAT WAS A SCARY DAY
WITH THE GOLF CLUBS.

HE HAD BECOME REALLY AGITATED

AND WAS ACCUSING DANTE
OF STEALING HIS CLUBS.

-WHERE IS HE?

YOU BETTER CALL HIM RIGHT NOW.

-IT MAKES ME HURT FOR HIM
TO SEE HIM SO FRUSTRATED

AND JUST TO SEE WHAT'S HAPPENING
TO HIM.

-I LOVE YOU, PRESH.

-I LOVE YOU, HONEY.

-I KNOW YOU DO, BABY.

BUT I SURE --
I SURE LOVE YOU, MAN.

YOU'RE SURE BEING NICE TO ME.

-I LOVE YOU.

-I'M REALLY LIKE A SHITHEAD
THIS LAST HALF OF A WEEK.

-AFTER CHICAGO, THE FREQUENCY OF
BAD SHOWS HAD BEGUN TO INCREASE,

AND WE WANTED TO END
ON A HIGH NOTE.

AND WE WANTED TO PROTECT,
YOU KNOW, WHAT HE WOULD WANT.

-NAPA IS THE LAST CALENDAR DATE
OF THE TOUR.

SO, WE DON'T KNOW.

-THIS COULD BE IT.

-COULD BE IT.

-OF ALL THE SHOWS
THAT HE'S PLAYED,

HE'S PLAYED THOUSANDS
AND THOUSANDS OF SHOWS.

AND I THOUGHT, "MAN,
IT'S SO SAD THAT HE --

HE DOESN'T KNOW
THIS IS HIS LAST SHOW."

-BEFORE IT WAS,
"DOES HE WANTTO DO IT?"

NOW IT'S WE'VE REACHED A POINT

WHERE I THINK HE'S UNABLE
TO DO IT.

HE'S NOT CAPABLE
OF PULLING IT OFF NOW.

-OH, NO.

-HE'S GOT TO HAVE A JACKET
TO MATCH HIS HAT.

THE CAMOUFLAGE ONE.

-ISN'T IT GREAT?
-IT'S AWESOME.

-LIKE THE WAY HIS MEMORIES ARE,
IT'S DIMMING.

AND THIS WHOLE THING
IS COMING TO AN END,

BUT IT WON'T BE, LIKE, FIREWORKS
GOING OFF AND EVERYTHING ELSE.

YOU KNOW, IT'S NOT LIKE
A BANNER'S GONNA COME DOWN.

BUT THE LIGHT IS STARTING
TO GET SMALLER AND SMALLER

WITH US BEING ON TOUR.

AND IT'S, LIKE --
IT'S KIND OF APROPOS.

-THAT TOUR WAS CRAZY
WHEN HE WAS OFF-STAGE

BECAUSE I WAS CHASING HIM
AROUND HOTELS.

HE DIDN'T WANT TO STAY
IN THE HOTEL ROOM.

WE WERE IN ONE HOTEL THAT, UM,
EVERY DOOR HAD A DOORBELL,

AND HE WENT AROUND PRESSING
EVERYONE'S DOORBELL.

HE THOUGHT THEY WERE
ELEVATOR BUTTONS.

AND SO PEOPLE, YOU KNOW,
IN THE HALLWAYS

WERE ANSWERING THE DOOR,

AND THERE'S GLEN CAMPBELL
STANDING THERE.

HONEY, STOP LEAVING ME!

-BY THE TIME WE GOT TO NAPA,
THE LAST SHOW,

WE WERE AFRAID
THAT THE NAPA SHOW

WOULD JUST FALL
COMPLETELY APART.

-HONEY?

HONEY! GLEN?

-I JUST HOPE THAT TODAY
IS GOING TO BE A GOOD DAY.

-THAT'S THE THING.
I DON'T HAVE ANY EXPECTATIONS.

YOU KNOW, I JUST KNOW
THAT IT'S, UH --

IT'S JUST GONNA HAPPEN
AS IT DOES

AND -- LIKE IT DOES EVERY NIGHT.

-THANK YOU, NAPA, CALIFORNIA!
I APPRECIATE IT.

I'M GLEN CAMPBELL,
AND I'M...

GOD BLESS YOU.

'COURSE...

AS LONG AS I'VE BEEN AROUND,

I'M -- I'M HAPPY TO BE ANYWHERE.

BUT TO COME HERE

WE JUST KNEW "THIS IS IT."

WE WERE GOING HOME
FOR THE CHRISTMAS BREAK,

WAS VERY -- IT WAS VERY ROUGH.

-I KNOW THERE --
THERE MAY BE PEOPLE

WHO DON'T UNDERSTAND
WHY WE'VE GONE OUT ON TOUR

AND WHY WE'VE OPENED
OURSELVES UP

AND EXPOSED THIS ILLNESS
SO PUBLICLY,

WHY WE'VE ALLOWED
A LOVED ONE TO --

TO GO ON STAGE
AND TAKE A RISK OF,

YOU KNOW, HE COULD MAKE A FOOL
OUT OF HIMSELF ON STAGE.

BUT IT'S SOMETHING
THAT HE WANTED TO DO,

IS HEALTHY FOR HIM,

AND HE'S TRYING TO LIVE HIS LIFE
AS LONG AS HE CAN

TO ITS FULLEST.

WE HAVEN'T -- WE HAVEN'T LET IT
GO TO THE POINT

WHERE HE'S GONNA EMBARRASS
HIMSELF OR ANYONE.

AND THE FANS HAVE BEEN
SO SUPPORTIVE.

WE'VE BEEN LISTENING
TO THEM, TOO.

THEY -- THEY WANT HIM OUT THERE.

THEY WANT TO HEAR HIS MUSIC,

AND THEY DON'T CARE
IF HE MESSES UP.

YOU KNOW, THEY LOVE HIM,
AND HE LOVES THEM,

SO WE'VE TRIED TO DO IT
AS LONG AS WE CAN.

-STILL, IT HAPPENED ENOUGH TIMES
WHERE, YEAH,

AT LEAST EVERYONE FELT GOOD
ABOUT THE DECISION TO --

TO END THE TOUR OFFICIALLY.

-THE FACT THAT YOU CAN STILL
HAVE THE MOMENTS WITH HIM,

YOU KNOW,
YOU CAN'T REALLY BEAT THAT.

AND JUST CHERISH EVERY MOMENT.

-I'LL NEVER FORGET IT.

IT WAS THE BEST TIME OF MY LIFE.

-AND ONE.

-♪ THE MAN THAT LOVES YOU
TILL THE END ♪

-NICE. TOP AGAIN?

-IT'S -- IT'S GOTTEN
TO THE POINT

WHERE HE DOESN'T KNOW
WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT.

DOESN'T MATTER WHAT
THE CONVERSATION IS.

HE JUST DOES NOT UNDERSTAND,
BUT HE UNDERSTANDS MUSIC.

I THINK WITH -- WITH GLEN,

MUSIC ISTHE LAST THING TO GO.

IT'S THE MOST
DEEPLY EMBEDDED THING

IN HIS MEMORY
AND HIS SOUL AND SPIRIT.

-OKAY. I LIKE IT.

-TO ME, THAT'S -- GLEN
IS RETURNING, YOU KNOW.

JUST KIND OF SOMETHING
IN HIS SPIRIT,

IN THE TWINKLE OF HIS EYE,

IN THE WAY HE ENJOYS THE MUSIC,

UM, JUST REMINDS ME
OF THE WAY HE REALLY IS.

-YOU KNOW, THE WAY HE WAS
WHEN I MET HIM.
