Bruce Willis’ wife Emma Heming Willis explained that while the Die Hard actor was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia, the disease doesn’t actually affect his memory. “The one that Bruce has affects language,” Heming shared on the June 15 episode of Bossticks. “But there’s another variant that will affect behavior and another one that could affect movement.” The 47-year-old noted that Willis’ FTD does not affect his memory and that he still remembers her and their daughters Mabel, 14, and Evelyn, 12, as well as his daughters Rumer, 37, Scout, 34, and Tallulah, 32, who he shares with ex-wife Demi Moore. “That’s a different part of the brain. So when people say, ‘Oh, does he remember who you are?’ Well, he does because he doesn’t have Alzheimer’s, he has FTD,” Heming said. “I think that’s a very common misconception that, when you think of dementia, we think of memory loss.” And while Alzheimer’s is the most common form of dementia, the model added that “FTD is the most common form of dementia for people under the age of 60.” Full Story: https://www.eonline.com/news/1433014/bruce-willis-wife-says-frontotemporal-dementia-doesnt-affect-his-memory
