Bruce Willis is increasingly deteriorating. The illness he suffers from is progressing greatly and the family, as recent information indicated, is already beginning to prepare for farewell. Until that time comes, the legendary actor fulfills his duties as a grandfather.

Rumer Willis, the performer’s daughter, commented at an event how her father continues to find joy in his relationship with his granddaughter, Louetta, especially during his visits. “He’s doing really well,” Rumer told PEOPLE at the Jhpiego Laughter Is the Best Medicine gala, referring to Bruce Willis’ battle with frontotemporal dementia.

Louetta, just one year old, has established a special bond with her grandfather. “Louetta loves going to see her grandfather,” said Rumer, who described these moments as extremely sweet. The little one of the family has captivated all the members of the family and has become a figure that awakens great tenderness among her relatives and close friends.

Thus, the actor’s little granddaughter, according to her mother, has unexpectedly become the “most famous person” in the Willis family. “Within my family, people call and ask to go out and play with just her,” Rumer explained. This breath of joy has also had a positive impact on Bruce Willis.

The daughter of the legendary actor has spoken to more media at the same gala. She told Extra that her father “is doing so well” with dementia that it is “lovely and so nice to see him with my daughter and he just has to go and give love.”

In addition, he told Fox News that “the transparency with which we have been sharing his condition” has meant that the family has received a large amount of affection, making them aware of how loved Bruce Willis is. “If there is some way that sharing our experience brings hope, that it can have an effect and provide some kind of hope and comfort to someone else who is experiencing that, then to me, that’s it,” he said.
