Message from David – March 8, 2017

To the many thousands of people who have supported me over the last 5 decades I send my love. I thank you all sincerely for the support and care you have shown me recently and in the past.

I am enjoying some time at home, appreciating the warmth and contemplating what I will be doing next. I wanted to let you all know that I am not retired, I do want to play again. I just won’t tour. I also want to go back into the studio to record “Songs My Father Taught Me”. I will keep in contact with you and let you know what I am doing.

Thank you for the many letters and messages of concern and care. I have my good days and very occasionally a bad day.  I am doing everything my doctors advise in terms of diet and pills.

Happy Trails,
DC

A ‘Dr. Phil’ Exclusive: The David Cassidy Interview

The interview will air on Wednesday March 1, 2017.

In an exclusive interview with Dr. Phil, music legend David Cassidy speaks out for the first time since recently revealing that he is suffering from dementia.

Cassidy says he first noticed symptoms two-and-a-half years ago, leading him to visit the doctor. “When friends or family members ask you, ‘Remember, I just told you this two days ago?’ and there’s no memory of it … that’s when I began to be very concerned,” Cassidy says of the first symptom he noticed.

Further details on the Dr Phil website.

 

Message from David – February 25, 2017

I’m overwhelmed with the loving, caring, supportive reaction to the fact I have the early stages of dementia. I want every single person who will ever read this, or hear this, to know that their love and care for me, and concern for me, means everything in the world.

I’ve chosen for 2017 to finish where I began, and where I was born, in the city of Manhattan, in New York, at BB Kings in just more than a few days. I intend to put the touring aspect of my life to rest.

I’m one of the more fortunate human beings, let alone actors, songwriters, singers, musicians, producers, creators in that I’ve had a lifetime of living my dreams. Without you all I would have very little. I am now a very, very, very heart-full rich man. No longer rich or wealthy but rich in spirit and heart and mind and love. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, and from the top of my head to my toes IOU a very significant debt for my happiness. Happy trails. I promise I won’t disappear.

I love you very much,
DC
