Originally Posted By SingleParkPassholder He may have been recently diagnosed, but he's had it longer than six months. My mom just called me to watch the Ralph Emery show on ch. 345 on Direct TV. Campbell is being interviewed and he keeps repeatig himself, forgetting key dates and facts, and words to songs. Overall, I thought he did well, though until I checked to see when this was first broadcast- 12/28/09. It was very bittersweet to watch.
