Frontotemporal dementia, or FTD for short, is a type of dementia revealed by Bruce Willis’ family.
In a statement released on the 16th of February, the 67-year-old star’s family said that while the news is “heartbreaking,” “it is a comfort to have a definite diagnosis finally.”
“There are currently no cures for the illness, but we hope that will change in the coming years. We hope that any media coverage will be directed toward raising awareness about this disease, which will require much more education and research as Bruce’s health deteriorates,” according to the statement.
