In February, the actor’s family confirmed that doctors diagnosed him with progressive frontotemporal dementia. There is no medicine for the disease.
Hollywood actor Bruce Willis may not realize he suffers from frontotemporal dementia (FTD). He announced this on NBC’s Today show.
At the same time, Emma Heming-Willis added that the disease also affected the couples themselves and their two daughters.
“I’ve learned that dementia is hard. It’s hard on the person who’s diagnosed. It’s hard on the family. It’s hard on Bruce, on me, and on our girls. When they say it’s a family disease, it really is. . . Bruce” is the gift that keeps on giving. Love, patience, resilience, so many things. Bruce would really want us to be happy with what we have,” she said.
How they explained the situation to daughters Mabel and Evelyn, Emma said: “We are a very honest and open family. And, you know, the most important thing is that we can say what the pain is it, explain what it is, because when you know what the disease is medically, everything makes sense.”
At the same time, the director of the Frontotemporal Dementia Association, Susan Dickinson, who was present at the show, explained that such a diagnosis affects another thing – self-esteem, and therefore some people lose awareness that they have changed .
It was previously reported that the youngest of the three daughters of actor Bruce Willis and Demi Moore, Tallulah, spoke about her father’s health.
