Famous actor and social activist Danny Glover, best known as an easy-going police officer in the film ‘Lethal Weapon’, has revealed that he has Alzheimer’s disease.
Glover, who has been nominated for an Emmy four times, told ‘Today’ and People magazine that he was diagnosed with the disease three years ago. He will turn 80 on July 22.
He told People magazine, “I still can’t wrap my head around all the aspects of it. There are moments that make you realize you can still remember things. And there are moments I’ll never forget.”
