It\u2019s sickening what is done to families\u2026 And having loved ones around you, especially when you have dementia, is the most important thing\u2026 It\u2019s not about taking them out of their home, putting them in a subpar facility\u2026 where they do not see their kids or loved ones\u2026 putting them on medication and then isolating them until they die. The fact that this is happening in the United States of America is disgusting. And this happens every day.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"image-ct inline\">\n<div class=\"m\"><picture><source media=\"(max-width: 767px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/343\/192\/Getty_CaseyKasem_Top40.jpg?ve=1&#038;tl=1, https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/686\/384\/Getty_CaseyKasem_Top40.jpg?ve=1&#038;tl=1 2x\" height=\"192\" width=\"343\"><source media=\"(min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 1023px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/672\/378\/Getty_CaseyKasem_Top40.jpg?ve=1&#038;tl=1, https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/1344\/756\/Getty_CaseyKasem_Top40.jpg?ve=1&#038;tl=1 2x\" height=\"378\" width=\"672\"><source media=\"(min-width: 1024px) and (max-width: 1279px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/931\/523\/Getty_CaseyKasem_Top40.jpg?ve=1&#038;tl=1, https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/1862\/1046\/Getty_CaseyKasem_Top40.jpg?ve=1&#038;tl=1 2x\" height=\"523\" width=\"931\"><source media=\"(min-width: 1280px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/720\/405\/Getty_CaseyKasem_Top40.jpg?ve=1&#038;tl=1, https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/1440\/810\/Getty_CaseyKasem_Top40.jpg?ve=1&#038;tl=1 2x\" height=\"405\" width=\"720\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/1200\/675\/Getty_CaseyKasem_Top40.jpg?ve=1&#038;tl=1\" alt=\"Casey Kasem surrounded by a crowd in a black and white vintage photo\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\"><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture><\/div>\n<div class=\"info\">\n<div class=\"caption\">\n<p><span>Disc jockey, TV personality and actor Casey Kasem hosts the KTLA music show &#8220;Shebang!&#8221; circa 1965 in Los Angeles.<\/span> <span>(Michael Ochs Archives\/Getty Images)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ad-container mobile ad-h-250 ad-w-300 ad-placeholder-load\">\n<div data-iu=\"ban14\" id=\"mobile-mw-ad-ban14\" data-ad-size=\"\" class=\"ad gam inline\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Kerri can still vividly recall the moment she realized her father\u2019s health had started to deteriorate.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad-container tablet ad-h-50 ad-w-300\">\n<div data-iu=\"lb12\" id=\"tablet-tw-ad-lb12\" data-ad-size=\"\" class=\"ad gam\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&#8220;He just kept forgetting things \u2014 a lot,&#8221; Kerri recalled. &#8220;I remember talking to my brother and sister saying, \u2018I think something is going on with dad.&#8217; Then he got diagnosed with Lewy body dementia.
