Glen Campbell, the country music legend who was diagnosed with Alzeheimer’s in June, sat down with his wife, Kim, and Terry Moran of ABC World News last night. During a few pauses in conversation, Campbell relied on Kim to fill in some blanks (“I’m going to be right in the middle of a sentence, man, and it just goes” he said.), but he seemed to focus when the topic of his 30-year marriage came up. “Definitely take care of what’s today and tomorrow’s going to have what it has,” said Campbell. “There’s a verse in the Bible that says, ‘If the man findeth a good wife he’s found a good thing,’ and I found a good thing, or she found me.” What has it been like for Kim to take care of Campbell? Not always easy, but worth it, of course. She said: “We’d been noticing short-term memory loss for quite some time. You know, he repeats himself. … He’ll tell a joke, laugh at it and a few minutes later tell the same joke, laugh, and then we laugh at him because he’s just enjoying it so much. You just make the best of each day and try not to worry about tomorrow.”
