The Willis family has gone through a lot during these past months, and their struggles are far from over.
Ever since the Die Hard star was diagnosed with a condition that affects one’s ability to communicate, the world fell silent. His family provided him with extreme support and has been updating his fans of Bruce’s condition regularly.
Bruce withdrew from from the spotlight, and later on, he was diagnosed with a more specific condition; frontotemporal dementia.
“Our family wanted to start by expressing our deepest gratitude for the incredible outpouring of love, support and wonderful stories we have all received since sharing Bruce’s original diagnosis,” his daughter Rumer Willis posted on the social media.
“In the spirit of that, we wanted to give you an update about our beloved husband, father and friend since we now have a deeper understanding of what he is experiencing.
“Since we announced Bruce’s diagnosis of aphasia in spring 2022, Bruce’s condition has progressed and we now have a more specific diagnosis: frontotemporal dementia (known as FTD).”
As Bruce’s wife, ex-wife, and his daughters were as well affected by his illness, his daughter Tallulah, whom the actor shares with Demi Moore, is experiencing issues with her mental health and they get worse as her father’s health condition worsens.
Tallulah spoke openly of her anorexia after she was dumped by her fiancè Dillon Buss less than three months after her father’s aphasia diagnosis.
As per reports, Bruce is being aware of his daughter’s suffering.
“Bruce could see her wasting away and it only made his own problems worse,” a source said, as reported by Radar.
“Bruce was shattered when he saw Tallulah’s suffering,” the insider went on.
“It got to the point where the family thought it would be better if they weren’t around each other at all.”
Tallulah has been diagnosed with borderline personality disorder after she checked into an in-patient facility following the breakup.
In the essay she penned for Vogue Magazine, Tallulah explained that her struggles with body dysmorphia began when she started taking medication for ADHD.
“I felt smart for the first time,” Tallulah said of taking her medication, “but I also started to enjoy the appetite-suppressant side effect of the meds. I saw a way to banish the awkward adolescent in favor of a flighty little pixie. And like so many people with eating disorders, my sense of myself went haywire.
“There’s an unhealthy deliciousness at the beginning of losing weight rapidly. People are like, ‘Oh wow!’ And then quickly it turns to, ‘Are you okay?’ My friends and family were terrified, and I dismissed it.”
The 29-year-old added: “By the spring of 2022, I weighed about 84 lbs. I was always freezing. I was calling mobile IV teams to come to my house, and I couldn’t walk in my Los Angeles neighborhood because I was afraid of not having a place to sit down and catch my breath.”
We truly hope Tallulah would be able to overcome her health issues.
Woman Shares Photo of Chicken Breast That Appears Stretched Like Spaghetti
Alesia Cooper, a mother from Irving, Texas, recently posted a surprising photo of chicken breasts she bought for dinner. When she began preparing the meal, the chicken shredded into thin, spaghetti-like strands, leaving her puzzled and seeking answers.
“I wasn’t sure about posting this, but since I had to see it, so do all of you,” she wrote alongside the photo she shared on March 21.
Cooper explained, “I was making dinner for my kids a few weeks ago, and after cleaning the meat like I always do, it ended up looking like this.” She noted that the chicken came from Aldi and humorously added, “I think it’s fake meat, but I’m not sure… I haven’t made boneless chicken since.”
The post quickly gathered attention, with commenters weighing in with their theories and concerns.
One commenter suggested, “That’s lab-grown chicken. It’s a new method because of bird flu and resource shortages. Last year, they announced they could make chicken in a lab, and that’s what’s in stores now.”
Another user chimed in, “It’s fake. I don’t buy it anymore.”
Others dismissed the lab-grown theory, pointing instead to the use of growth hormones. “It’s not lab-grown or 3D-printed meat. It’s real chicken, but producers use growth hormones to make them grow too fast,” someone explained.
Reports have highlighted similar issues, noting that chemicals and breeding techniques can lead to these abnormalities in chicken. Dr. Massimiliano Petracci, a professor of agriculture and food science in Italy, confirmed that fast-growing birds often exhibit these issues.
Historically, it took chickens 112 days to reach 2.5 pounds, but now, due to modern breeding methods, they can reach an average of 5 pounds in just 47 days.
Dr. Michael Lilburn, a professor at Ohio State University’s Poultry Research Center, pointed out that the growing demand for chicken products like nuggets and sandwiches is driving these changes. “If people keep eating more chicken, the chickens will likely need to get even bigger… and we’ll need to increase the amount of breast meat per bird.”
He added, “Most Americans don’t care where their food comes from as long as it’s cheap, but a small, vocal group is raising important questions.”
With growing concerns over food quality, it’s crucial to be mindful of what we consume, both for our health and the health of our families.
