what happened to bruce willis

According to recent news, Bruce Willis has been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia (FTD) . His family announced his diagnosis in February 2023, nearly a year after he retired from acting due to aphasia, a disorder that causes difficulty with communication, both in speaking and understanding written and spoken language. FTD is a group of disorders characterized by a progressive degeneration of nerve cells in the frontal lobe or the brain regions underneath the ears, and it is currently incurable. The disease can cause difficulty expressing oneself, understanding what’s being spoken, and figuring out the meaning of things sometimes. Willis family hopes that his diagnosis will bring more focus to battling FTD and raise awareness about dementia and how to help others with it.
