Is Bruce Willis ill? Does Bruce Willis have aphasia? What medical issue does Bruce Willis have?

The announcement by Bruce Willis that he has retired from the big screen drew attention to aphasia, a condition that was little-known but has many causes.

According to the veteran actor’s family, the condition has been impacting his cognitive abilities, hence the need to step away from acting.

Aphasia is a medical condition that causes an inability to comprehend or formulate language because of damage to specific brain regions. The major causes are stroke and head trauma.

Aphasia can also be the result of brain tumors, brain infections, or neurodegenerative diseases, but the latter is far less prevalent.
