Then last year, his family announced that his illness had “progressed” and he was diagnosed with frontotemporal dystrophy (FTD).
“As Bruce's condition progresses, we hope that media attention can be focused on shedding light on this disease, which needs more awareness and research,” the family said. “Bruce has always believed in using his voice in the world to help others and raise awareness about important issues, both publicly and privately,” his family wrote in a statement shared on Instagram.
They continued: 'If you could today, we know you would want to respond by bringing global attention and a connection to those facing this debilitating disease and how it affects so many people and their families.
The Mayo Clinic defines aphasia as “a condition that affects the ability to speak,” which can “affect speech and writing and understanding spoken and written language.”

“As Bruce's condition progresses, we hope that media attention can be focused on shedding light on this disease that needs more awareness and research,” the family said.
The actor's family has not announced what sparked his battle with aphasia, which has many possible causes.
The condition may occur after a head injury or stroke, or may be a precursor to a brain tumor or Alzheimer's disease.
Patients living with this condition are usually treated with speech therapy and taught ways to communicate verbally.
