Bruce Willis' Daughter Tallulah Provides Update on His Health: 'Whatever Kind of Day It Is, We Meet Him Where He's At'
The retired actor was diagnosed with dementia in 2023, a year after receiving an aphasia diagnosis.
Tallulah Willis opened up about how she deals with her dad, Bruce Willis’ condition daily.
In 2023, the 69-year-old was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia, a year after being diagnosed with aphasia.
"I'll go visit my dad and spend some time with him," Tallulah told People, explaining that she sees him when her schedule is more flexible.
She shared that it’s important for her "to go into it open to what the visit is, and knowing that before I go in, I'm solid. I'm okay.” She continued, "I've done what I need to do to make sure that I can just be present."
Bruce’s health is "doing the same in terms of the last we kind of updated, which I'm told is good," she added. "But whatever kind of day it is, my family and I meet him where he's at."
Last March, on his 68th birthday, Bruce’s wife, Emma Heming shared an update on his health and about caring for him.
“I have started the morning by crying as you can see by my swollen eyes and snotty nose," she said in an Instagram video. "I just think it's important that you see all sides of this. I always get this message where people always tell me that, 'Oh you're so strong. I don't know how you do it.' I'm not given a choice. I wish I was."
