This is his only big event of the year...and I'm very glad he's still able to do it. Yes it's painful to hear him slur his words...especially as I remember him during his energetic days on American Bandstand. I think it's admirable he's come back after suffering such a dibilitating illness and appears to be mentally sharp and "with it". If ABC wants to have him and he wants to do it, I'll be watching and cheering him on.
Sadly many like to treat those with such an affliction by not wanting to see them...out of sight out of mind, but one day that could be you...trying to still stay vital. More power to Dick Clark...he's more of an inspiration today than he ever was spinning platters.
