Overview

• In an interview on Good Morning America, Emma Heming called the relocation the safest and best choice for Bruce Willis and their two daughters and said the decision is not open to debate.
• Willis now lives in a single-story home near the family residence to enable round-the-clock professional care and reduce overstimulation that can trigger agitation.
• The proximity allows frequent family contact, with regular breakfasts, dinners and visits that help preserve a sense of normalcy for their children.
• Heming’s new caregiving memoir, The Unexpected Journey, explains the rationale for the move and discusses preparing their daughters for the long-term realities of frontotemporal dementia.
• She has described early changes in Willis’s behavior and communication, the shock of learning the FTD diagnosis, and told Vanity Fair she once considered divorce before realizing his symptoms were driven by disease.
