Kim Woollen, the wife of country music legend Glen Campbell, who suffers from Alzheimer's, has admitted that her decision to put her hubby in a care home was "agonising".
Woollen, who has been married to Campbell for 31 years, confessed that their family of five was completely exhausted taking care of him as they could not cope with his disease, the Daily Express reported.
