I have a 22 year old granddaughter that has This is a couple of sentences about what I do and how well I'm doing at it that I can feel in to my survey without having to spend the time to type everything in Aphasia from birth and it is amazing how much she can do. She works for the Zoo caring for animals, helps her mom raise and trasin guide dogs and bakes cupcakes for special occasions that people just love. She can not drive a car, but she has an electric bicycle she rides to work 5 miles each way. You can never tell what medical science can do for people who are willing to work at it.

Updated, He just got diagnosed of Dementia, making his situation much worst. No wonder he was not picky of roles in 2022 because he wants to make as much movies as possible before he becomes a shell of his former self.

More specifically, it's frontotemporal dementia which affects the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain. It's different from Alzheimer's, which is the form of dementia most people are familiar with. The life expectancy for someone with this form of dementia is 7-13 years from the onset of symptoms. :(

Poor man! I don't blame him for trying to cash in while he can. It's sad, really. I can only wish him the very best of luck and hope he's got all the support he needs from genuine friends and family, not hangers on as is often the case with big shot celebrities.

The change is visible but it is nice to see him surrounded by his family, hope he keeps getting their support and hopefully medication will do the rest.

E! News (who called the disease frontotemporal dementia) reported that Emma Heming Willis expressed "Grief & Sadness" on his birthday.

She wrote:Today is one of those days of feeling the grief and sadness ... But the silver lining or the flip side is that I'm so lucky to feel your warmth and love that is directed to my husband and our family. I see your messages, your stories that you share, and all I can say is thank you. Your connection helps me and I hope it helps you in a small way to know that I see you and I deeply understand your journey as well. #ftdawareness #griefshare #dementiaawareness #gratefullness

It is understandable those feelings, seeing someone that we love going through such a terrible disease isn't an easy thing for sure.

Has this been officially announced or it's just a rumour?

There is no official announcement that Bruce Willis is retiring from acting. While he has slowed down his output of films in recent years.

It's worth noting that actors and celebrities often take breaks or scale back their workloads without necessarily retiring completely, so it's possible that Bruce Willis may continue to work in the industry in some capacity in the future.

It has been announced already, His ex wife and his current wife are the ones who announced it. Also look at the video I am embed above. He doesn't look the same. I am not talking about aging, his demeanor is now like a child.

It has been covered by mainstream news too.

I understand; this is why I--whenever I report news online--show my sources.

I am almost 70 years old. It's 2023 and I am now learning about aphasia. I kept searching for a friend I met online years ago. I finally found her and found out that she is suffering from aphasia. It broke my heart. She's such a kind person and an excellent writer. But she does not write anymore.

I heard people who reads, writes solves puzzles and play games have smaller chances to get dementia and alzheimers. So keep your brain active.

I have heard that also. I try to stay active by writing a lot. I recently tried the Trivia game on Netflix. It was kind of fun.

I have other friends who are suffering from this same illness. I can't talk to my friend anymore.
Doctors can't do much about it. It's a slow killer.

I've known a couple of people that had mild Aphasia after having a stroke. Thankfully it was not too bad for them, they sometimes found it hard to find the correct word for what they wanted to say. However, they could still engage in conversation and communicate effectively with those around them. I feel sorry for anyone who has this condition, especially those who have it more severely.
