Glen Campbell is a better performer with Alzheimer’s than 90% of artist who are healthy
+Trev Mac TRUTH
Well, well be careful what you are saying
LOL kind a stupid compare !
The way you Name me , exact what I thought so stupid you are, no doubt about that !
so true & so sad
Kim Campbell is a hero in my eyes for sticking by her husband through his illness. She is a strong woman, and God helped her.
She put him in an assisted living home. That's how much she cared.
@@Michael-qb5hg Glen needed special care, there some things regular people can't handle, no matter how much we love someone.
@@petera.michaelsen4657 Then what was her reason for refusing to let Glen see his children alone? She's a money hungry vulture. Ask Glen's older children.
Just can’t with this man. I wish Kim all the best. The journey of Alzheimer’s is hard. God bless all Glenn and Kim went through.
Thank you for the kind words. Blessings! }
I cannot believe the comments on this website. Having watched th farewell tour of Glen Campbell I am so impressed with how Kim is so patient, loving and caring. It is a very difficult job to care for someone with Alzheimer's,as I well know, but she does it with grace. God bless you Kim and your family.
Mm
She really seems like she is grieving, sorry for the sarcasm.
Josephine Jones Kim really does have such love, peace and the grace of God within her that radiates out!
True Women are graceful, caring, and empathetic. Without them we would just wreck the whole thing.
i cant believe he's gone. One of my all time favorite singers. We'll miss u very much Lineman.
"I'll be Me" was such a great documentary about a legendary guitarist and performer - My wife and I were so moved and I hope everyone will take the time to see this beautiful movie.
Where did u see it?
glen pure talent awesome guitar player one
of the greatest.
RIP , I REMEMBER ALL THE SONG BY GLEN CAMPBELL AND I LOVE THE WAY HE SINGS THE SONGS .🎶🎤🎸
Ashley Campbell is a phenomenal musician and singer. Truly inherited her Daddy’s talent.....
Always remember Glen was one of the most beautiful people to grace us with his life and music.
She was great and so of course was Glen... She always supported him and I admire her so much.
My heart goes out to her.You have to have faith to get through this and also family support.
Kim Lewis BULLSHIT!! She is sucking that poor man dry. Did you know that true love bitch has locked out all of Glens other kids from seeing him not to mention his friends. This woman is a real bitch as I know the other kids.....Tamar Mackievicz Telles BULLSHIT!! She is sucking that poor man dry. Did you know that true love bitch has locked out all of Glens other kids from seeing him not to mention his friends. This woman is a real bitch as I know the other kids.....

RIP Glen sending love to your Family
We lost one of the greats in the music industry yesterday and my heart goes out to his family! Love his song: "Not Gonna Miss You," which says it says it all about Alzheimer's!
RIP Glen what a great performer,"it's only make believe " my favourite, you'll never be forgotten.
I'll Be Me....so glad I watched it....both my parents went thru a form of this....it's heart breaking
This was insightful, I'm gonna miss Glen, he seemed like such a nice guy and he was so talented.
We will miss you Glen, i grew up on your music. Grace and peace to you and family.
Yes, it takes a special spouse to care for an Alzheimer's partner! My grandpa took care of my grandma for many years and hated to put her in a full time facility. He was there morning to night every day! Bless you and your family, you put Alzheimer's in the forefront and showed people how it can be dealt with. Thank you, people need to see your example!
He was a great artist! Tanya Tucker was the love of his life!! So sad Glens wife wouldnt let Tanya see him before he passed away.
Thank you for showing sympathy, @brendafarnham5077. May you kindly remember all the bereaved families in your prayers, asking for God's comfort to be upon them as they go through this season of grief.;
You're right, Pat, she IS a tremendous wife (and kids and friends).
Lev Shelo BULLSHIT!! She is sucking that poor man dry. Did you know that true love bitch has locked out all of Glens other kids from seeing him not to mention his friends. This woman is a real bitch as I know the other kids.....Tamar Mackievicz Telles BULLSHIT!! She is sucking that poor man dry. Did you know that true love bitch has locked out all of Glens other kids from seeing him not to mention his friends. This woman is a real bitch as I know the other kids.....

David H You are a negative scumbag! You don't know any of his family. Drama queen!
David H Before spouting off your mouth, do some simple fact-checking. All of his kids are able to visit him, even Debbie. And watch your language. Show some respect for others. Kim is one of my best friends. If you were speaking about his wife this way 6 or 7 years ago, Glen would be really angry with you. But, because he is a gentleman, he would pray for you. Maybe you could take some lessons from him?
+Lev Shelo There seems to be a discrepancy about what has happened to Glen Campbell. He is living in a long-term facility, which seems odd that Kim couldn't arrange for his care at home. Luckily. there is the money for hospice care at home and it sounds rather selfish. Also, the link will explain what is going on with Kim and the rest of the family...she strikes me as phony and selfish.

Thank you for your comment, Kevin. It baffles me that people like Donna Johnson make uninformed comments, acting as though they know it all. Kim has tried home care several times, but Glen is a big man and in good health, other than the Alzheimers. This makes him very dangerous to anyone caring for him. He is unpredictable and quite strong. I had coffee with Kim just two weeks ago and she showed me a picture on her phone of the black eye she received while caring for Glen before she enrolled him, once again, in a beautiful care facility. She was simply helping him get dressed and he hit her without a reason. He didn't need a reason. This is the work of the Alzheimers and the one inflicted doesn't understand what he is doing. Glen is in the beginning of the last stage of Alzheimers. He is neither happy nor sad for he doesn't even understand what those two feelings are! He cannot communicate his thoughts whatsoever. He is "content" where he is now because he is being cared for by professionals. My dad had Alzheimers too. He nearly killed my mom (from the stress of caring for him) until I stepped in and found him a care facility. It was the best and most loving decision I ever made for my parents! My mom's health improved overnight and she had peace in the last 3 years of her life. We visited my dad several times a week. My mom died in September of 2012 and my dad just 10 months later. During that interim, my dad would often forget the love of his life for 58 years was gone! Kim visits Glen every single day and continues to make sacrifices only the loved ones of Alzheimers understand fully! Instead of criticism, people should be singing her praises!
I never got to see Glen live, possible for the fact that I live in Australia but Glen was my guitar hero. I learnt music because of Glen, I found myself at a university studying music full-time because of Glen, I choose to call Glen, maestro. These days I am living in retirement, although I do teach music to a handful of students. Now 50 years after the fact, Glen wasn't my only inspiration, Lindsey Buckingham & Mark knopfler played their parts in my musical journey, but Glen was the first. He inspired me to save for my first Ovation guitar, purchased in 1979. That guitar, was the Glen Campbell signature 12 string At 63 years of age, I think I have seen every tribute to Glen on you-tube. One of my favourite interviews with Glen is the one when Glen attempts to explain a capo, to a none guitar playing interviewer. The interview was very funny, given that the interviewer had no idea what Glen was talking about. Thanks for providing me the opportunity reminisce the story of Glen Campbell & me. PS, was that Paul McCartney in the audience at Glen's concert? It sure looked like him.
Ashley is an amazing songwriter and musician all together
We just don't want to let go... we love Glen
After Glen could no longer perform, due to his progressive demetia, he could still play the guitar as if he was all good....didn't miss a chord!
That's amazing for such a degenerative disease.
He & Roy Clark were two of the my favorite guitar/banjo jammers.
They were talented, high caliber showman who knew how to entertain their audience. I miss them dearly, but they both left a legacy of their work behind for us to enjoy! God blessed them both with talent!
She and family are great and of course he is
😊yes GOD BLESS HIM he was great and legend performer
Thank you for the kind words }
His wife Kim such a great lady it's good that glen found her 😊
RIP Glen Campbell, loved his songs as a child. Got my first 45 record at age 5 (Rhinestone Cowboy).
RIP Glen Campbell. You are/were a legend.
I wish music today was as well sung as by some of these older artists. Cheers, Don
In light of the situation she showed a lot of patience and grace
Glen Campbell's Testimony is an amazing blessing to so many who are struggling with the spiritual warfare that besets all of God's children.
All praise and honour to the risen Jesus Christ for His loving kindness and patience and for allowing this beautiful man to (finally)OVERCOME!
To all those listening to this, know this that Jesus Christ IS risen and is alive and well and He is still in the business of saving souls! 💖
SO Very touching! Thank you.
God bless this woman who is such an inspiration and spokesperson to what love and commitment look like. Glen was blessed to have her.
Thank you Kim so much for taking care of Glen Campbell he was old Great Thou Art to me I loved him just like Elvis God bless you
nice to see mrs campbell doing well,God bless everyone.
God bless you!
So said that Glen has to suffer from altzheimers. My heart breaks for his family. His last song is so beautiful and so true. His show was wonderful and heart warming.
Wonderful , wonderful musician! So sorry to hear that he got this diagnosis however with a loving family, close friends and great Doctors he is going to live his life with dignity until the end! God Bless you Glen and your family,thank you for sharing your music with me all these years!
GOD BLESS THIS FAMILY

My sister we just found out has Alzheimer’s early stages. I was looking through UA-cam and Glen came up I knew who he was just had not heard him in a while so I played witchita lineman and made my day. What a great song and Glen was a legend Thanks Glen Campbell for all the performances and all you contributed to the the world through your Guitar and singing voice.
You could really play that Guitar, Rest In Peace You Are Missed
I am touched like you wouldn't believe !!!

Alzheimer's you forget what happened two seconds ago but you can remember so much from your past it's such a Sad sickness
A very talented musician i enjoy Glenns music, Beach Boys aswell wow.
As a DJ and a Fan, Glen was my MAN! RIP Sir.
Love this honest and loving family.
its a shame its a bit like dementia dead on the inside and alive on the outside, i just love the last song from him the words are just fabulous it made me cry like mad and i just cant stop listening to it now
Glen Campbell "The country music legend was laid to rest on Wednesday,
but his testimony to the power of God to change a life lives on. Glen
asked God to rescue him from the mess he had made of his life with
alcohol and cocaine. He said he “felt like a drowning man grasping for a
life preserver.” For Glen-and for everyone else-the only life preserver
that works is Jesus Christ, the Son of God. If you put your faith and
trust in Him, He will rescue your soul for eternity. Glen said that he
surrendered everything to Christ-his pain, his drinking, his whole life
and Jesus reached into his life "and took up the burden.” His wife, Kim,
couldn’t have said it any better, “People kept telling me he was never
going to change, but to say that is to deny Jesus’ power to transform
lives.” Don’t give up on those you are praying for. Remember, “with God
all things are possible” (Matthew 19:26). Pray for Kim and Glen’s
family, as I know they will miss him greatly." Franklin Graham
I'm praying 🙏 and have loved his music since I was a child to this day.
They talk as if Glen is no longer with us, how sad. Glen is still the same man even though he has a health problem. Bless him x
+rose ipk they talk like he,s dead coz thats americans for ya they get everything wrong
Listen to his lyrics, "I'm still here, but yet I'm gone"........it's true. Physically? sure. Everything that makes Glen HIMSELF? no. he's gone.
+rose ipk Sadly due to the cruelty of Alzheimer`s when it progresses to the later stages it robs you of everything that makes you who you are including your voice ,your humor and entire ability to communicate.It is called a 7 year funeral for a good reason.In essence as a family member you are mourning someone who is still alive which is the strangest feeling from experience.When I lost a loved one to Alzheimer`s 18 months ago I struggled to feel sad about it because I knew I had already lost them years ago.
Robert Hill Sorry to hear of your loss. Having nursed many Alzheimer's sufferers, I always found that inside each person is still a life that will always be cherished.
+rose ipk Yes, he has been blessed. With Alzheimer's. The Lord blesses us with all those incurable diseases. He doesn't bless me because He doesn't love me.
"And he's still with us! singing in God's Choir in Heaven!!!" Thanks, Glenn !
Glad to have lived in this time of so many wonderful music people like Glen and many more. What a wonderful wife and family.
As music lovers we all love this man
O Glen Campbell,Definitely one of God's gifts to the World,Thank you So Much! "By the time I left for..." Tears! x M
His Documentary "I'll Be Me" will telecast on CNN in June
one of the best entertainers ever.
Bless his heart.
What a tremendous loss as a person and as a performer
What a beautiful nice woman to support him like that God bless you ⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘
God Bless this dear woman...
🙏🙏🙏🌹💓💞❤❤❤❤
Same to you, Jean. God bless you!
In the 60's and into 70, the Glen Campbell look was about as long as the south would tolerate, in Knoxville.The first time my mom did not get my hair cut once a month was when his show aired.
It is always hard to see great people go away. Glen Campbell was one of the best. I assume his name is written in concrete.
HOW WONDERFUL THAT HE WAS ABLE TO CONTINUE SINGING AND PLAYING Jesus, said he would never leave or forsake us, I believe no matter what Jesus and the Angel's were with him until the very end,I do think they were very happy together ❤ 💙
Sweet lady but so strong, I am so sorry Glen can't do what he would wish to do.
God bless you you went thru hell but that's what you do when you love someone !
God Bless the Campbells
Really true love
Tamar Mackievicz Telles BULLSHIT!! She is sucking that poor man dry. Did you know that true love bitch has locked out all of Glens other kids from seeing him not to mention his friends. This woman is a real bitch as I know the other kids.....
What a lovely beautiful woman
I wrote a song about rhinestone cowboy playing all the time in my childhood,,,
my eyebals are just sweating
The kids are all talented all of them
I've enjoyed watching!
Glad you enjoyed it!
RIP Glen
I miss hearing him sing live.
Although it is very heartbreaking to hear about Glen`s disease. There are issues that may have sped up his condition. Mainly his age. After age 65 the risk of Alzheimer's or dementia doubles every five years. Glen is close to 80. And I know this upsets people to hear this about their hero, but the truth is his substance abuse most likely help contribute to his condition (read the journals on cocaine/alcohol abuse and dementia). He said a few times he thought the cocaine would eventually kill him. In conclusion I hope that his family tends to his needs and let`s him live and eventually die with dignity. He's worth a bundle, so there's no reason he shouldn't have everything and anything he needs.
milestoneman : Where as you are not letting him die with dignity. No need to point things out because it really doesn’t matter the outcome is the same. Just appreciate the talent of this phenomenal man.
@@roseblake5803 truth is truth Rose Blake, even if it's not pretty..... and if the truth that his cocaine and drug abuse contributed to his Elz heimer's, perhaps that fact can help prevent someone else from going down that same road.....
God has an amazing spiritual plan for them 🙏 and Me 🙏💗 and all of us whom know God in heaven Creator of all things
I read how people put Glen Campbell's wife Kim down so sad as so many do not have a clue what a caretaker of a spouse, parent love one go through and the depression they suffer the pain of seeing their loved one fade as not having them the way they use to be. How they put her down she didn't do this or bring up about his past with drugs - give the poor widow a break - she was by his side everyday as I read all about her and Glen's beautiful children. She gave her all and was at the facility everyday where Glen stayed until the end, and at one point she was so devastated not having him home tried again to do that but he needed the 24 hour care and had to admit him for his safety and hers & her children - people criticized about her having him do his last Tour I myself think it was so beautiful, he was amazing with the help of his wife, children and friends, and how happy it made him as he was in stage 2 of Alzheimer's and still well Aware of the goings on and his music, playing how he loved. So just my opinion I think letting him do his last Farewell Tour was such a treasure and beautiful memories for his children, Kim and even brought his daughter Debbie close to her step-mother Kim! Glen will always be remembered as his Legend lives on his voice, Guitarist - his songs such beautiful music. God Bless his family and God Bless Kim as I know Heaven is lucky to have him and make everyone smile - Prayers with Music! God Bless
She locked him up in assisted living. She didn't take care of him around the clock. Removed him from HIS home that HE paid for. Made it hard for his daughter, older than Kim, to see him. She isn't a nice person.
I loved glen he was awesome. Im happy to hear he is a christain. Im a christian but i have a very hard time liking pat !!
Thank you for your kind words! ♡
from YT reader Tex Rittenberg ... Yes, I was put on an opiate and Valium by the VA for 7 years and then they told me to stop cold turkey. It was rough but I quit. Then the VA told me that those 2 drugs have been linked to Alzheimer's. Ain't that sweet!!!
You deserve the utmost credit.I took Clonazepam for 20 years and if i ran out i was ready to launch a bullet in my brain.The worst "withdrawl" ever...!!!
Get a holistic Dr to help you. Eat blueberries and antioxidants. May God bless you!
What a wonderful example of the truth of what Jesus can do, he is truly the way, truth and life!
Kim, alcoholics present and past have massive magnesium deficiencies not detectable thru serum blood levels...symptoms are memory loss, depression, anxiety....not sure if it would help at this point... Also decalcify pineal gland with Vitamin K2, read Rotterdam Study...
If anyone can help me find this Documentary I would be grateful. Love his music!
Trev Mac- soooooo true.
Glenn Campbell's wife is a class act .
Not. Haha
Alzheimer's is such a cruel disease : (
Tanya Tucker’s song is wonderful his wife can not erase the past true love I think she wants the spotlight, is she really a true christian
I think she just wants Money.
Exactly, I really don't get why she's so upset about this song. Jealousy and insecurity is the only logical explanation. I know if my partner of 35 years passed away I wouldn't give a rat's ass about any of his past flames and what they do. Tanya still loves the guy, Kim is the one who got the guy - wtf is she so salty about?
Glen and Tanya were not in love. They had a drug fueled Godless relationship. He probably didn’t want to see her. But it’s their life and their business.
Glen was sent to a health care facility in 2014; maybe it was necessary, she was criticized for it nonetheless and noticed it wasn't mentioned here; maybe before he went?
"Lovely "?? Who fights with children. I don't care if they are not your children. All of Glen's children should be included in his will. It is Never a child's fault when 2 Adults divorce. The older children should be allowed to grieve their dad's death and not spend time in court.
Agreed! She is a fake !
Will not happen but hope he outlives them all
lsuman38 b
Glenn's Current wife Kim absolutely makes me want to run, scream and yell. She tries to come off with SUCH devotional love for Glenn and "all" his children. When she had Glenn placed in a facility for Alzheimer's patients, she WOULD NOT allow Glenn's children from his previous marriages to "EVEN" be allowed to visit him. She was so afraid that his previous children would get him to change his will and not leave her "EVERYTHING". These children had to go to court to be allowed to visit their biological Father. And they won (with stipulations that Kim was present during these visits and the children were NOT ALLOWED to talk to him privately). Not long after this, she "EVEN DENIED" visits to Glenn from "THEIR OWN" children together. And these children had to go to court to be allowed to visit their biological Father.
Kim is not a Christian or anything close to it. She only wanted all of Glenn's money, possessions, property, stocks, bonds and continued royalties. ALL of the children were cut out of Glenn's will. How sad and pathetic is that. Pat Robertson is also a severe money grubbing piece of garbage. These two make great company. I love you Glenn - always a superstar.
His ex- wife who called him a maniac on Troy Donahue and Tanya Tucker(what a joke of human being)....LOL, I'd keep those fools and money grubbers away my poor sick husband too. And for his children(1st marriage)....my guess is if anything like mom...best to just stay away as well. And Glenn was staying at one of the finest Alzheimer Care Home's in the country....I don't blame her for that...its hard as hell taking of a final stage Alzheimer's patient. So why don't you just stuff it.
@Tim Mencarelli.....You know very little about Glenn Campbell, and that is quite obvious. He has 8 biological children and 10 Grandchildren. Kim made sure none of them were in his will (including their own children together). Glenn dearly loved all of his children and this is not what he would have wanted.
Take your meaningless, idiotic ramblings on down the winding road - doesn't work here.
@@debrascott8492 , well said. Glen loved all his children. Too bad he trusted her to do the right thing.
In my husbands and my will, if one dies, the other gets everything, and THEN when that person dies, the estate is split between all of our kids (his and mine). How do you know that isn’t how Glenn’s will was written? The spouse inherits everything, usually. People always seem to assume the worst, when they don’t really know the whole situation.
@@kanamichelle7404thank u.
I just watched the movie yesterday
The thing is with Alzheimers he wouldn't been able to read and comprehend the teleprompter. But music has away of , just like scents, has a sensory, Diffentant from memory. So perhaps the teleprompter was for her comfort and others around him, a compensation if you will... Yes I know as I cared for my Nana 3years, who had it...
GOD BLESS PAT ROBERTSON........MAN OF GOD,
This is before he died yet they talk about him in the past tense and as if he had already died.
I loved his music, so heart felt!! When did he pass away?
+govegg2 He hasn't passed yet. He's in a nursing home outside of Nashville.
govegg2. Aug10,2017! Rip Glen Campbell!
ArmyRangerHAAF. He has died!
Tell us why Kim won't allow Tanya Tucker to see Glen, At least let her say goodbye to him. Kim are u thinking she wil take him from you, well think of what the Lord would say. Forgive.
triston marie I agree! Tanya went through a lot because of Glen when he punched her in the mouth. Seems like it is not a very Christian thing for the Campbell family to do, justifying why the victim can't go visit the person she want's to forgive! You would think that would be good for Glen and the family. I guess they are threatened from the union in some way.
im laughing at your response
+triston marie Yes, very selfish of her not to have let Tanya come see him before he got so bad. I mean come' on she was with him for a while, they have history together. Kim is just being terribly selfish. Glen would prob want to see her.
Did it ever occur to any of you that perhaps Glen did not want to see Tanya? It was a drug and alcohol fueled affair that happened years ago. Glen had moved on , recovered, and remarried. Perhaps he preferred to leave that part of his past, in his past. Why blame her for everything? perhaps she was protecting HIS wishes. We won't know and its none of our business.
Maybe he didn't want to see Tanya Tucker.... he had a new life, a new family... Kim was his life for a very long time, she loved him through the good and the bad🦋
Kim; You were the best thing that ever happen to Glen next to Jimmy Webb.
I like when she say god not lord or mo god of music glen Campbell
