It\u2019s never easy to receive a diagnosis like dementia, especially for someone as beloved as retired actor Bruce Willis. And while it\u2019s undoubtedly challenging for him, it also deeply affects his family. Recently, Bruce\u2019s daughter Tallulah Willis shared some heartfelt insights into their ongoing journey in an interview.<\/p>\n
While the primary focus of the interview was Tallulah\u2019s collaboration with luxury silk brand Kumi Kookoon, the conversation naturally veered towards Bruce\u2019s health. Tallulah, despite her hectic schedule, makes it a point to visit her father when she can. However, she admits that mentally preparing herself for these visits is crucial. She explained, \u201cI\u2019ll go visit my dad and spend some time with him.\u201d<\/p>\n
Tallulah revealed that she approaches each visit with an open mind, acknowledging that she never quite knows what to expect. Yet, she ensures she is emotionally grounded beforehand, saying, \u201cI\u2019ve done what I need to do to make sure that I can just be present.\u201d It\u2019s a testament to her resilience and dedication to being there for her father.<\/p>\n
As for Bruce\u2019s current state of health, Tallulah shared that he is \u201cdoing the same in terms of the last we kind of updated, which I\u2019m told is good.\u201d It implies that there are both good and not-so-good days, emphasizing the unpredictable nature of dementia.<\/p>\n
Amidst Bruce\u2019s battle with dementia, Tallulah personally grapples with her own diagnosis of autism. Reflecting on her design work for blankets, she discovered a unique solace in the sensation of weight. \u201cAnd as I\u2019m learning more about my autism and my sensory stuff, there is something very safe and special about that weighted feeling,\u201d she explained.<\/p>\n
