Bruce Willis’ wife, model Emma Heming Willis has been trying her best to stay positive amid his battle with dementia. Emma previously posted a photo of a page from what appeared to be the book “Floating in the Deep End: How Caregivers Can See Beyond Alzheimer’s.”
Bruce Willis brought the curtains down on his acting career in 2022, after being diagnosed with aphasia. In February 2023, his loved ones further revealed that his condition had worsened and that he had been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia.
Meanwhile, Davis, 71, is the daughter of former President Ronald Reagan, who was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s in 1994 and died 10 years later, at age 93.
Emma Hemming Willis recently took to her Instagram account and posted pictures of the book and Patti Davis with the caption:
“I just finished Patti Davis’s book, Floating in the Deep End: How Caregivers Can See Beyond Alzheimer’s.
And then I was fortunate enough to have lunch with Patti and tell her how moved I was by her book.
This book is hopeful, insightful and compassionate.
While I am not familiar with the journey of Alzheimer’s per se, I know what it’s like to be a care partner. I also really appreciated how knowledgeable Patti is about the world of frontotemporal dementia that is clearly evident within the pages.
Reading this book while making both a new connection and new friend was a beautiful way to start the year @pattidavis10”
