Moore is actively involved in his life, helping to care for him, and sometimes sharing details about his current condition with journalists.
In what condition is Bruce Willis now
In 2022, Bruce announced the end of his acting career after he was diagnosed with aphasia, a disorder that leads to loss of speech functions due to damage to the language center of the brain. The family later confirmed that the aphasia was the result of frontotemporal dementia.
In 2023, his wife, Emma Heming, said that Willis's memory began to gradually disappear, and his ability to think logically and perceive reality deteriorated.
Insiders have repeatedly made disappointing predictions about the actor's condition, suggesting that he may not live to see the end of 2024.

In an interview with Today, Heming admitted that this period was a serious challenge for the whole family.
"It's hard not only for the person who is diagnosed but also for their family. And this is no exception for Bruce, me, or our girls," Heming said.
She also urged those who care for sick relatives not to forget about their own well-being, because only in this way can they become a real support for their loved ones.
When asked if Willis understands what is happening around him, Heming said that it is hard to understand. Despite his condition, the actor continues to spend time with his family and enjoys moments with his granddaughter Luetta.
