Very sad. Such an eloquent person, he is going to lose this ability too with this disease. I admire his courage with going public.

While I have never agreed with his political agenda, I admire him as an actor. His announcement that he may have Alzheimer's was both eloquent and heartbreaking.

Thank you for posting an insightful post, mentioning your convictions, while still offering sympathy.

This is obviously a skill that some do not possess.
