“Duck Dynasty” alum Phil Robertson has been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, according to his sons.
The family patriarch, 78, was also diagnosed with a blood disease, his sons revealed on the “Unashamed with the Robertson Family” podcast episode released Friday.
“I think I spoke on the 1000th podcast, we were trying to figure out the diagnosis, but according to the doctors, he has some sort of blood disease causing all kinds of problems,” Jase Robertson said.
Al Robertson added that Phil has had the blood disease for years, but that it has recently accelerated.
“We’ve got a team of doctors, and then we have another set of doctors who are looking at all the tests, and they’re all in agreement that there’s no curing what he has,” Jase said.
