GLEN CAMPBELL’s family put the Alzheimer’s-stricken star into a full-time care facility for a heartbreaking reason -- they were afraid he would hurt himself...or them!
“Glen is still as strong as an ox and can be menacing, especially when he’s frustrated by something,” revealed a close source. “He’d get all riled up and begin bellowing loudly.
“After a while, (his daughter) Ashley and (her mom) Kim just couldn’t sleep easily. It was frightening. They were not only worried that Glen would hurt himself, but them, as well!”
In recent months, the 78-year-old “Rhinestone Cowboy” singer took a turn for the worse, and the mind-robbing disease “was getting very advanced,” said the source.
