    I saw Alan in Knoxville a few weeks ago. I cried through most of the concert. It was a grand performance but as a nurse I could see his progressive disability. It hurt my heart because I watched my life through the music. My 20 year old daughter suffers from a similar condition. He was saying goodbye and he is so loved. I appreciate that he speaks for just regular people like us. My daughter, by the way, had an experimental procedure and after 2 years in a wheelchair she is walking again. I pray for this family. Pray for hope for a solution for this good man that represents an America that is rapidly disappearing.

      Charcot-Marie-Tooth is well understood genetic disorder, and politics has nothing to do with it. This means that the best chance for treatment is early stem cell transplantation or at least genetic testing of embryos to avoid passing it on. I sincerely hope your daughter doesn't have CMT.

      @Debra Brantly,
      Thank you for your thoughtful response of Allan Jackson. I agree with you. I have admired his talent in singer, songwriter for decades. And after 9-11, how patriotic he is. That song he came out with was so down to earth, honest, loving. Even though his fans already knew this, it verified it to us, and our country what a wonderful, patriotic man he is. And how much he loves his country.🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸💕

    I have had CMT for most of my life. I was diagnosed at age 12. So I know what you are going through with this disease. Your concert was the first one I have ever been to. It was in Lafayette Louisiana. That was an amazing concert and I wish I would have had a chance to see you again onstage. You are an amazing artist and hearing that you suffer from the same disease that I have and that most of my family has had is mind-blowing. As other people have said if you have to go out onstage in a wheelchair and not be able to play your guitar is okay with me. And if I ever have a chance to see you onstage again it would make my life complete. You are a legend and an amazing person.

      Yes, it was surprisingly good. I love Alan Jackson, and he has always been a man who wrote about life the way it is lived, so his music is personal. She approached the interview with insight and understanding, and she listened to what he had to say with real compassion. It was a much better interview than most you hear on the news. It's not about clothes or voice or any of that, all of which are more than fine here in my opinion. No, in conversation what you really want is a good listener, and Jen Bush is a really good listener. 'How I Do It' is right on the money.

    Alan has been my favourite Country Artist from the first time I heard and saw him. His humble attitude and the beautiful songs he has written, and his lovely smooth passionate voice - how could you not love him and his music ?? Such an amazing talent and gift God has given him and us. I took my three granddaughters to his Red Deer Concert (my 3rd) about 18 to 20 years ago (they are all in their 20's now) they were so thrilled, as they were all raised on Alan's music! I have a video of my oldest granddaughter when she was about 20 months old dancing to "Chattahoochee!" she was/is so adorable! God Bless you and your Family Alan. We are ALL Praying for You! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💕♥♥♥♥

    This is so so sad. I have a friend with whom for many years I was a lay preacher in our faith group and we traveled to many other faith groups playing our guitar and singing our own songs. He was a fantastic guitarist natural talent but not so me I had to practice hard but my gift was writing.
    He suffered from a similar condition and he lost the control of his fine motor skills in his hands before he lost the ability to walk. It broke both our hearts and after over thirty years of friendship we parted when he moved several hundred miles away from home.
    We met up recently and his voice is still velvet we did a tribute night for his retirement from his role in the church but for there only to be myself playing tore my heart.
    Stay strong Allan keep your faith shining trust in God he never closes one door without opening up another.
    Thank you for all the precious hours and memories you have given millions around this world. We will pray for grace, strength and healing for you and your family.
    Many blessings from a fan and sister in faith far away in Bonnie Scotland.

      Abby mitchell I agree with you about prayers being needed, so will be praying in agreement with you for healing for Alan Jackson. Mine has been diagnosed as Parkinson’s Disease a few years ago, sounds like the same symptoms but several of us seem to be contracting something doctors are having trouble treating other than trying to treat the symptoms. I’m praying for the Great Physician to step in and heal us all, as the medical community says there are no cures. Hopefully God will send the wisdom and cure, with enough prayers from caring believers. No offense or expectations to or from non believers, as we all have free will. I appreciate prayers from believers of all faiths bc we all grew up with different teachings yet agree there is One God. I am a follower of the teachings of Jesus Christ and accept the KJV Bible as the Word of God over other books, but to each their own. I love everyone without discrimination, including non believers. I’m just at the late part in my life, do not try to change anyone’s mind, yet am always willing to discuss the love of God, the birth, death and resurrection of Jesus and His return to Heaven so He could send the Comforter to us, my current companion. Please pardon typos as my vision is weak due to malnutrition but I’m back up to 83 pounds for now. Hopefully through prayer, Mr. Jackson can continue his works here and keep his strength bc my gallbladder went bad unknown to docs so long is why I became so small and gained 10 lbs. since that surgery last winter, so of course I do believe in science too, when applied properly. Just got a late diagnosis LoL. Hopefully his doctors will stay ahead of such things bc I doubt he’s Medicare reliant. Medical care is very important but prayers are too. GBU Sister. 🙏 Have a safe, warm winter.😊 ~

We loved his version of Blues Man, and would always slow dance to it, because we could relate to it in so many ways. A House with No Curtains was another one that could bring us both to tears, because our lives and marriage were not perfect. Now as our 5 children grieve, Daddy Let Me Drive is a song that all of our children relate to and hold dear. Thank you Alan Jackson for a lifetime of memories.

I remember going to his concerts by myself in the early 90s. I loved his music so much, but most of my friends weren't into country music, so it was my only option if I wanted to go. I was pretty shy myself, so going by myself was a big deal for me, but I really enjoyed his music that much. I hope his neurological issue allows him to keep doing what he loves for as long as he wants to. Sending lots of good thoughts to him and his family.

    Alan Jackson was my first exposure to country music. “Remember When” was our wedding song. Love the stories he tells ❤️and he seems like an incredibly humble man.

    Alan Jackson. He is a symbol of my childhood and the center of the bond between my dad and I. My dad always loved country music and Alan Jackson always had amazing music. When I hear the classics years later, I think of the good times with my dad and it makes my heart smile!

    I want to thank you for going public. I never knew this syndrome existed. After you described stumbling I have been falling for years. I drop stuff, my husband does not trust me to put the cornbread in the oven. He wants to protect his cornbread. After you went public I was diagnosed with CMT. It is worse than you are telling, however, when we know what we are facing, we can deal. It is quite debilitating, but man you can still sing. We will lean you up against a jukebox if need be. Never quit singing cause we will never quit listening. You are true country.

    He's got a more seasoned look about him, but his voice, his smile, and his eyes are still the same. 💗 Chasin' that Neon Rainbow. I remember listening to that song when I was 19, and on vacation in Nashville with my boyfriend at that time. His line, "I made it up to music row" gave me an awesome, happy feeling because we were touring Music Row when the song came on the car radio and I could just imagine the excitement he must've felt. I was feeling it then, too. I remember him mentioning Walmart in a line in that song, or maybe another song. We never had a Walmart in our city back then and I'd never been to one or seen one til we got down south. He's so awesomely traditional, he's the epitome of country music. Love him! 🎵

    I have have always been a Rock and Roll fan. and have been also a Country music fan. I've had people say how can a fan of both genres? but to me the two genres more the same than different. and Allen Jackson has always been one of my all time favorites. he's a great musician and a person. he's so honest, and humble, he's definitely an honorable man. my two favorite songs are "Remember When"and "Mercury Blues". I would like to wish him and his family. good health, and continued success, and say thank you.

    I saw Alan in Asheville, NC years ago at the Asheville Civic Center right before his career exploded and it was one of the best concerts ever ...He put on a great show and after the show was done, he stayed on stage for 2 hours signing autographs and shaking hands. He is a true country gentleman.
