Rumer Willis<\/strong><\/a> is getting very personal about her father Bruce Willis<\/strong><\/a>‘ battle with dementia. <\/p>\n

For those who don’t know, Bruce<\/strong> was initially diagnosed with aphasia and he announced he was stepping away from acting in early 2022. In February 2023, it was reported that he was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia. <\/p>\n

“I really miss my dad. I miss a different version of who he was,” Rumer<\/strong> said in a video posted to Instagram<\/a>. “There are some days that are just so hard. I try to prioritize being present with where he’s at now. The truth is, to be strong is learning to deal with both things at the same time.”<\/p>\n

Rumer<\/strong> has partnered with the health membership Function, which offers offers 160+ advanced lab tests, imaging, and specialized assessments. She was able to take the APOE genetic test to help better understand her own genetic risk. <\/p>\n

“I have a three-four, which is pretty average, but it also just means that there is some risk, but it’s not crazy,” she said. “Companies like Function empower you to put the information in your hands.”<\/p>\n

In a interview with People<\/a><\/em>, Rumer<\/strong> explained why it’s both so powerful and terrifying to have this info. <\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s terrifying to get answers sometimes,\u201d she said. \u201cObviously there are genetic things in my family. Not just dementia, I\u2019ve had some family members who have had breast cancer and family members who have had different things. But I think when you have information, it\u2019s power. And that sounds so, like, Spider-Man, but when we\u2019re able to see, OK, maybe I\u2019m more predisposed to this, you can just start actively working to reduce inflammation in your body, work on heart health, whatever it is. That\u2019s why it\u2019s been so amazing to be able to track a lot of those things with Function.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bruce<\/strong> recently made a rare appearance at <\/a>the wedding for one of his daughters!<\/p>\n
