Sully Shares Alzheimer’s Diagnosis | New York City News
Description
Captain Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger, the hero of the “Miracle on the Hudson,” has revealed he’s been diagnosed with early-stage Alzheimer’s — a condition that’s stolen names, repeated stories, and disrupted his sleep. Once celebrated for landing Flight 1549 safely in the Hudson River after a bird strike, Sully now uses his platform to raise awareness, revealing that over seven million Americans live with Alzheimer’s. He hopes his candid story will empower others to speak up, build community, and break the silence around this progressive disease.
