Bruce Willis is ‘not totally verbal’ due to dementia diagnosis
https://www.nzherald.co.nz/entertai...gordon-caron-says/EHN2YJQUKRASVM2OY5DMM2VCZQ/Bruce Willis’ dementia battle has reportedly taken a heartbreaking turn, leaving the actor struggling to communicate. Speaking to the New York Post, the 68-year-old Die Hard actor’s friend, Glenn Gordon Caron, said he had noticed a sharp decline in Willis’ health during his monthly visits.
“He’s not totally verbal; he used to be a voracious reader — he didn’t want anyone to know that — and he’s not reading now. All those language skills are no longer available to him, and yet he’s still Bruce.” She grew emotional as she said: “What I’m learning is dementia is hard.
“It’s hard on the person diagnosed, it’s also hard on the family. And that is no different for Bruce, or myself, or our girls.
