No plan, no guidance, no hope, just shock,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe future we imagined simply vanished, and I was left trying to hold my family together, raise our two young daughters, and care for the man I love while navigating a disease I barely understood.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Despite the news, she previously took to her Instagram page as she wrote that Bruce still experiences \u201clove, connection, joy, and happiness,\u201d which she posted about back in March 2024.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>However, the actor\u2019s condition has sadly worsened.
