Bruce Willis' Wife on Dementia: It's Not My Husband, It's the Disease

According to glavcom.ua: Emma Heming Willis candidly spoke about her husband Bruce Willis' battle with dementia. At first, she confused the early symptoms of the disease with issues in their relationship. But when the diagnosis was made, she felt a sense of relief, understanding that the disease attacks the brain, not his personality. This new realization helped her see the situation from a different perspective and approach everything with more compassion.

«It was very difficult to determine where Bruce ends and where the disease begins. I noticed that he started to stutter again, but I would never have thought that it was a symptom of frontotemporal dementia», Emma Heming Willis said.

It is worth noting that family support is extremely important for Bruce, so he and his wife moved to a specialized home where necessary medical supervision and comfortable conditions for the patient are provided. The family remains close to the actor, helping him with everyday tasks and maintaining communication.
