I encourage everyone with a similar diagnosis in their family to watch the video including his appearing on stage. Showtiming ability clearly remains even after a dementia diagnosis, itself requiring at least a stage 5 progression.

Wow, just watched the speech. I wouldn’t have really have guessed that anything was wrong until he mentions his diagnosis at the end.

For his and his family's sake I'm hoping it is "only" dementia and not CTE.
