As Bruce Willis’ mental capabilities continue to deteriorate, his family is “cherishing every time” they have with him and “praying for a Christmas miracle.”
Since the renowned actor retired from his long-running career in Hollywood, they have become even more close as his current wife, Emma Heming, works to improve communication.
The 67-year-old Willis’ family revealed in March that he had aphasia, a condition that impairs language comprehension and speech.
Since then, according to a source close to the family, his condition has gotten better, and his family is now gathering to spend as much time as they can together.
They are aware that he won’t be present forever, the unnamed person claimed. They are therefore savoring each and every moment.
Moore “has been in frequent communication with Bruce and Emma,” the insider continued.
They said, “She makes the most of every opportunity to be with him,” and, “If she’s not by his side, she’s calling on the phone just so Bruce can hear her voice.”
As they do every year, the blended family is currently spending the holidays in Idaho. Willis’ daughter with Moore, Tallulah, 28, recently shared a photo of her hugging her mother while her father stood close admiring Demi’s dog, Pilaf.
It was always a special time, according to the source. The beloved family customs, such as their pajama parties and game nights, persisted.

Tallulah and Scout, the happy family’s daughters, post pictures of the whole unit together, showing how much they are enjoying their time with the actor.
Tallulah expressed her affection for her parents in her post this week, and Scout posted images of Bruce holding Pilaf with tenderness as he sat at the dinner table with Tallulah and his wife, Emma.
She captioned the image, “Family supper night.”
In a different image, Bruce and Emma could be seen cuddling while seated at the table.
Mabel and Evelyn are the couple’s daughters; Bruce wed Emma in 2009.
Moore and the Die Hard actor were previously wed from 1987 to 2000. Rumer, Tallulah, and Scout are their three daughters together.
Bruce’s family announced earlier this year that he would stop performing as a result of his aphasia diagnosis.
As a family, we wanted to communicate with Bruce’s incredible supporters that he has been dealing with health concerns and has just been diagnosed with aphasia, which is affecting his cognitive ability.
Bruce is leaving the career that has meant so much to him as a result, and he does so with great thought. Our family is going through a tremendously difficult time right now, so we greatly appreciate all of your love, sympathy, and support.
We are dealing with this as a strong family unit, and we wanted to invite his followers since we know how much you all value him. “Live it up,” as Bruce often says, and that is exactly what we intend to do together.
