The Medical Condition Hallmark's Kimberly Williams-Paisley's Mom Lived With

In April 2016, Kimberly Williams-Paisley sat down for an interview on “Today,” during which she opened up about one of the early signs that something wasn’t right with her mom. It was actually at Williams-Paisley’s wedding to country star Brad Paisley in 2003 that the family witnessed something off with Linda Williams. “We gave her something to read, and she stood up in front of the congregation and wasn’t able to get through the reading, which was very atypical of my mom,” Williams-Paisley explained. Although they might not have realized in that very moment what was going on, her symptoms continued getting worse over the next couple of years.

In an article written for Redbook, Williams-Paisley noted that her mom was having trouble writing her own name — and that was cause for immediate concern. From there, doctors ran a series of tests until the diagnosis was confirmed, along with a heartbreaking prognosis that would change the whole family forever. Williams-Paisley said that one of the biggest challenges was explaining to Williams’ grandchildren why they couldn’t spend time with their grandmother, especially once she became “physically aggressive and abusive, sometimes biting or throwing things.” It was around this time that the family made the decision to move Williams into a long-term care facility.
