Actor and singer David Cassidy, 66, recently shared that he’s been diagnosed with dementia. The star admitted that he “always knew it was coming” and that his mother and grandmother had been diagnosed with the same.
The former Partridge Family star shared the news in an interview with People magazine, and he also discussed seeing his mother go through it.
“In the end, the only way I knew she recognized me is with one single tear that would drop from her eye every time I walked into the room…I feared I would end up that way.”
David also announced that he would now stop touring for good.
“I want to focus on what I am, who I am and how I’ve been without any distractions. I want to love. I want to enjoy life.”
