It has been a deep passion for Robert, to one day perform and put together a tribute show to Neil Diamond, like none other.
Neil Diamond has given a candid interview about living with Parkinson’s disease, saying he has only recently accepted his condition.
Appearing on CBS Sunday Morning, the 82-year-old musician told journalist Anthony Mason he was in denial “for the first year or two” after receiving his diagnosis in 2018.
“When the doctor told me what it was, I was just not ready to accept it,” he said. “I said, ‘Oh, OK, I’ll see you whenever you want to see me, but I have work to do, so I’ll see you later.’”
Diamond, the singer-songwriter behind hits such as Sweet Caroline and Cracklin’ Rosie, said acceptance had brought him a sense of calm.
“I think this has just been in the last few weeks. But somehow, a calm has moved in and the hurricane of my life and things have gotten very quiet.
