The family of Bruce Willis is getting ready for a Christmas full of affection, introspection, and optimism as they rally around the actor facing frontotemporal dementia.
At 69 years old, the beloved star, diagnosed with dementia in 2023, will celebrate the holidays surrounded by close family members.
Prioritizing quality moments
This Christmas, Bruce’s wife, Emma Heming Willis, along with their daughters Mabel, 12, and Evelyn, 10, will be joined by his ex-wife Demi Moore and their daughters Rumer, 36, Scout, 33, and Tallulah, 30.
The family is committed to making this Christmas particularly memorable by cherishing each moment with Bruce.
A source has indicated that they are “hoping for a miracle” regarding Bruce’s health and aspiring for a medical advance, but their top priority is to simply enjoy their time together.
They plan to connect through shared experiences, listening to music, and reminiscing by looking through old photos and videos.
“Every moment spent with him is precious,” the source noted, highlighting the significance of these personal interactions.
Additionally, the Willis family intends to share their experiences on social media, including a heartfelt celebration of Bruce’s 70th birthday coming up in March.
Traditionally, the holidays have been a significant time for the Willis family to come together and savor each other’s company.
Last year, Moore shared heartwarming pictures of the family dressed in matching pajamas, even though Bruce was not featured in those moments.
In 2020, they cherished their holiday custom by sharing a cozy photo while quarantined in Idaho.
Despite the difficulties from Bruce’s condition, Emma has been dedicated to his care, sharing snippets of their life on social media.
Recently, she shared special moments with Bruce, including a charming video of him yodeling happily for the camera.
“Him. Always,” she wrote, showing her deep love for her husband.
As the family faces this trying period, their emphasis remains on creating enduring memories and showcasing their support and love for Bruce, aiming to find joy this holiday season.
