Description
Captain Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger, the hero who landed US Airways Flight 1549 on the Hudson River, has revealed he’s in the early stages of Alzheimer’s — forgetting names and recent stories, but retaining his signature calm and focus. His wife Lorrie says his steady spirit remains unchanged, and they’re embracing each day with hope. Sully, a lifelong advocate for aviation safety, hopes sharing his journey will comfort others facing Alzheimer’s. He’s not alone — actor Danny Glover, also from the Bay Area, recently shared his own diagnosis.
