Demi Moore Gives An Update On Bruce Willis

Bruce Willis came up as Drew and Demi were discussing their collaboration from way back when on Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle, when Drew asked how Bruce was doing.

"Given the givens," Demi answered, "he is in a stable place." She continued, explaining how her family copes with the heartbreaking diagnosis: "What I say to my kids is you meet them where they're at. You don't hold on to who they were or what you want them to be, but who they are in this moment."

Bruce Willis Battles Frontotemporal Dementia

You may not have heard of frontotemporal degeneration prior to Bruce’s diagnosis, and that’s not uncommon. It's an aggressive form of dementia that has left the actor with decreased language processing and communication abilities. “FTD is a cruel disease that many of us have never heard of and can strike anyone,” Willis’ family said in a statement posted on the Association for Frontotemporal Degeneration website.

Unfortunately, according to reports, the 68-year-old Die Hard actor is having "more bad days than good" at the moment, and Demi Moore, 61, and their daughters Rumer, 35, Scout, 32, and Tallulah, 29, as well as his wife Emma, 45, and their daughters Mabel, 11, and Evelyn, 9, are "soaking up" every moment with him.
