“He is great. I love him so much. Thank you,” she said.
It has been over two years since the veteran actor’s diagnosis was made public.
In March 2022, his family announced on social media that he was battling aphasia, a condition that affects one’s ability to communicate.

Bruce “has been experiencing some health issues and has recently been diagnosed with aphasia, which is impacting his cognitive abilities,” the family said at the time. “As a result of this and with much consideration Bruce is stepping away from the career that has meant so much to him.”
The family revealed in February 2023 that the Sixth Sense actor has frontotemporal dementia (FTD), which can include speaking and writing challenges associated with the effects of aphasia.

“Unfortunately, challenges with communication are just one symptom of the disease Bruce faces,” they said. “While this is painful, it is a relief to finally have a clear diagnosis.”
Despite all the challenges that come with her father’s diagnosis, Rumer told Today in May this year that she still loves seeing him in his “grandparent era” with her daughter, Louetta Isley Thomas Willis.

“Lou is just starting to walk a little bit, and she was walking over to him, and it was so sweet,” Rumer told host Hoda Kotb. “He’s a girl dad, through and through. I saw him with my sisters, my little sisters. So you’re seeing that all come back again.”
