Bruce Willis’s returning childhood stutter was an early sign of his frontotemporal dementia, a diagnosis confirmed after his retirement in 2022. His wife, Emma Heming Willis, has since embraced a public advocacy role as a caregiver, sharing her journey and experiences at events like the Women’s Brain Health Summit. She emphasizes the importance of caregiver self-care and offers strategies to manage the emotional toll of supporting loved ones with dementia. Heming Willis’s memoir, The Unexpected Journey, reflects her insights and the challenges faced by caregivers.
