    Default Bruce Willis major health problems

    HollywoodReporter.com: "The family of Bruce Willis issued a new statement on Thursday about the actor’s health, confirming that his condition has worsened, and he’s now facing frontotemporal dementia, which is hindering his ability to communicate. The news comes nearly a year after his family confirmed that Willis, 67, would be stepping away from acting due to an initial diagnosis of aphasia."

    Very sad diagnosis. The life expectancy after being diagnosed with his type of dementia is anywhere between 3-5 years.

    Brain diseases like dementia and alzheimer's are the worst. Really sucks that it had to happen to Bruce

    The scariest part to me about this type of disease is knowing you'll die without knowing yourself or your family/friends. Very devastating

    Bruce was on mad dash to make money off his acting for awhile, being on anything from shitty straight-to-streaming-service movies to Japanese commercials, for that reason. He already knew his time was up soon.

    When it was first revealed that he'd be retiring from being an actor, some media reported that he passed away instead.

    It's an ensemble cast. It's more like a Travolta gold mine rather than Bruce's

    Bruce killed it as Butch in Pulp Fiction though. Definitely one of his best and most iconic roles
