Bruce Willis’ Health: Family’s Strength Through Dementia
Bruce Willis, famed for Die Hard and The Sixth Sense, retired in 2022 after an aphasia diagnosis. Recently, his family revealed his condition has advanced to frontotemporal dementia (FTD), deeply affecting him and his loved ones.
His daughter Rumer expressed gratitude for fans’ support, while wife Emma Heming Willis, his primary caretaker, called dementia a “family disease.” Bruce, now 69, faces challenges like weight loss and difficulty recognizing hunger cues, adding to the complexities of care.
FTD has severely impacted his communication and recognition abilities, but his family remains resilient. Emma highlighted both the grief and love that coexist in their journey, urging compassion and hope around dementia.
Surrounded by family, including ex-wife Demi Moore and their daughters, Bruce continues to find comfort in their unwavering support and care.
