Emma Heming Willis gave an update on husband Bruce Willis’ condition Monday as a part of Frontotemporal Dementia awareness week.
Bruce Willis’ wife, Emma Heming Willis, gave an update on his condition Monday as a part of Frontotemporal Dementia Awareness Week.. “It’s hard on the person diagnosed, it’s also hard on the family. And that is no different for Bruce, or myself, or our girls. When they say this is a family disease, it really is.”, Susan Dickinson, during the appearance.
“So we really don’t know some people that’s the first thing they lose is any understanding that they themselves have changed,” she continued. “And other people retain that for a long time.” She added: “So it was important that we let them know what it is because, you know, I don’t want there to be any stigma or shame attached to their dad’s diagnosis or for any form of dementia.”
“We’re a very honest and open household,” responded Heming Willis. “And you know, the most important thing was to be able for us to say what the disease was, explain what it is because when you know what the disease is, from a medical standpoint, it sort of all makes sense.”Getty Images for Film at Lincoln
