The difficulties that Bruce Willis and his family currently endure were brought to light by the retired actor’s recent disclosure of his dementia diagnosis.
Many people, especially fans of the actor have been grieved by the news, particularly those who have long appreciated his work. The Willis family remains strong and supportive of one another despite this trying circumstance.
Recently, Tallulah Willis, Bruce’s daughter, talked about her partnership with the high-end silk company Kumi Kookoon in an interview. Though her father’s health was not the main topic of conversation, it inevitably came up.
Tallulah disclosed that because every interaction with her father is unpredictable, she must mentally prepare for them. “I’ll go visit my dad and spend some time with him,” she revealed.
Tallulah approaches every visit with an open mind, and makes sure that she is emotionally stable because she recognises how unpredictable the situation may be.
She continued, “I’ve taken the necessary steps to ensure that I can simply be present.” Regarding Bruce’s present condition, Tallulah discloses that, given the situation, he is doing fairly well. She said, “He is doing the same with the last update, which I’ve been told is good.” She does admit that some days are better than others, though. Bruce’s family supports and understands him at every stage, meeting him where he is.
Tallulah has been diagnosed with autism. Weighted textiles provide a cosy and safe sensation that she finds comforting while she designs blankets. “And as I learn more about my autism and sensory issues, I find that weighted feeling to be really unique and safe.”
The Willis family’s tenacity and commitment to helping one another through these challenging times is encouraging. In spite of the challenges dementia may bring, their unwavering love and unity act as a beacon.
As they travel this path together, let’s keep them in mind and show them that we understand and care.
