Bruce Willis' wife reveals shocking call she got from 'very prominent doctor' amid actor's dementia battle


As her husband copes with his illness, Emma has been frank on social media about her view that 'caregivers need care too.'

She explained that this issue contributed to her decision to write her book The Unexpected Journey: Finding Hope And Purpose On The Caregiving Path, which is scheduled for publication this September. Betsy, 62, succumbed to a rodent-borne disease called hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) on February 11 - and then lay in their Santa Fe house decomposing as Gene, 95, suffering from advanced Alzheimer's, wandered about the luxury property confused and possibly unaware she was even dead. Gene himself eventually lost his life to a cardiovascular disease exacerbated by his Alzheimer's, several days after his wife, with officials noting that the final activity on his pacemaker occurred on February 17.
