Last night I got to see David Cassidy for the last time. He looked great, healthy and happy. He talked about his Dad Jack being Bipolar and an alcoholic. He talked about his mom and her dementia and having to go through the end with her alone. He said no one was with him when she passed and this was when his alcoholism took a turn for the worse.

He spoke about his early days before the Partridge Family and his career since them.

His birthday was brought up and he made laughing comments about being 65 and on Medicare. He said he is proud he made it to 65 and being a Senior Citizen.

One of the Rolling Stone Photo's was put on the big screen and at first he pretended to be embarrassed, then he said he was glad he did it. It was done tastefully. He told the whole story behind the interview and photo being done in the Rolling Stone.

He played Night & Day with Craig J, which will be on his next CD. He is coming to Chicago in June to record. He talked about his friendship with John Lennon, and Davy Jones. David did half of Daydream Believer by the Monkees but we had to finish it for him as he was losing his voice. He started losing his voice about half way through the 90 minute talk. He was asked about Danny and Susan and he said he and Danny are very close friends but he hasn't heard from Susan in 25 years. As he spoke of painful things in his life, I could see the pain in his face. Then he would move on and talk about some of his happy memories. Smiling and at times laughing.

At the end even though he had almost totally lost his voice, he did a Q &A with the audience. David was asked what his favorite color is. While, he said it was the dumbest question anyone could ask another person he finally said his is Blue. Now we know.

I had a wonderful time. I couldn't take my eyes off of him, as always. I was sad I couldn't get to meet him one last time, but feel very blessed to have met him once. I was in my wheelchair at the end of the second row, got moved up a row, but I still couldn't get close enough for him to see me as they had the lights down in the audience. You could tell he couldn't see anyone in the audience.
