'I Feel for You': Bruce Willis' Daughter Shared Never-before-Seen Photos of Actor — Fans Send Their Support
- Tallulah Willis shared some never-before-seen photos of her beloved dad and Hollywood icon Bruce Willis.
- Fans have reacted to the images, showing their support for Tallulah and her family, who are going through a tough time with the "Die Hard" star's dementia battle.
- The actor's wife also spoke about her husband's condition and opened up about their life.
Hollywood legend and doting father Bruce Willis, 68, has been battling frontotemporal dementia for some time now, which has progressed severely. The star's form of dementia is just as aggressive as it is rare, according to his loving daughter, Tallulah Willis.
Tallulah, like the rest of her family, has been making the most of her time with her dad amid the sad situation. One of the ways she is doing so involves finding and collecting treasure troves and memorabilia from her dad's life.
She said that doing that has been another way she has been healing through the pain. In addition to speaking about archiving her father's items, Tallulah also gave an update on how her dad has been doing amid his medical condition:
"He is the same, which I think, in this regard, I've learned is the best thing that you can ask for, and what I see is—I see love when I'm with him, and it's my dad, and he loves me..."
Last month, a friend of the "Pulp Fiction" star, "Moonlighting" creator Glenn Gordon Caron, gave his own assessment of how Bruce was doing when he saw him. According to Caron:
"He's not totally verbal; he used to be a voracious reader...and he's not reading now. All those language skills are no longer available to him, and yet he's still Bruce..."

When it comes to whether or not Bruce has any inclination of what is going on with him, his doting wife, Emma Hemming Willis, admitted that it's difficult to discern that. Though the Hollywood legend's family is going through a challenging time, having to watch the patriarch of their family battle his disease, they still do their best to find joyful moments.

In this way, Emma asserts that her husband, who teaches their little girls love, patience, and resilience, would want his family to find a way to enjoy their lives and not be downtrodden by his diagnosis. One such way for them to do so is by bringing more awareness to FTD (Frontotemporal Dementia) and helping those affected, as discussed by Emma:
"FTD is the most common form of young-onset dementia and can strike any adult age...But it's still not a well-known disease...I knew I needed to raise my voice to bring awareness to this disease...It's important to me to be an advocate on behalf of those families who don't have the time, energy, or resources to advocate for themselves."
