From Emma Heming Willis, wife of Bruce Willis, a deeply personal and richly compassionate supportive guide that helps caregivers care for themselves while they navigate a loved one's dementia.

By sharing her personal journey as a care partner and the latest research and insights from the world’s top dementia, caregiving, and integrative experts Emma offers the guidance and wisdom caregivers everywhere so desperately need to hear, including:

  • A diagnosis isn’t just a label, it’s a starting point. It helps you better understand your person’s behavior and respond with more clarity and compassion.
  • Taking care of yourself is not optional; it's mandatory. It will make you a better care partner. It’s not selfish, it’s self-preserving.
  • You don’t have a choice about being on the dementia caregiving journey. But you do have a choice in terms of how you approach it and reframe it.
  • Caregivers are human so you aren’t always going to be patient and selfless. You have challenges and struggle with conflicting emotions and that’s okay.


The day Emma Heming Willis’ husband, Bruce Willis, was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia (FTD), all they were given was a pamphlet and told to check back in a few months.

With no hope or direction, Emma walked out of that doctor’s appointment frozen with fear, confusion and a sense that her world had just fallen apart.

In fact, it had. Bruce and Emma had their story written, their future mapped out. Yet all those dreams crumbled with that diagnosis, and Emma felt alone and more isolated than ever.

How would she care for her husband while parenting their young daughters?

With The Unexpected Journey, Emma has written the book she wishes she’d been handed on the day of Bruce’s diagnosis: a supportive guide to navigating the complicated, heartbreaking, and transformative experience that is caregiving for your loved one.

Ultimately, The Unexpected Journey shows you how to care for yourself while doing one of the hardest, most heartbreaking jobs in the world. Because if you don’t take care of yourself, you are not going to be able to look after anyone else―especially your loved one with dementia.

'I know that no two caregiving journeys are the same, but we are connected by the same unchosen thread. It’s not an easy path for you, your loved one or your family. But I’m here to let you know that you are not alone, and, in time, you will find your footing, and a way forward.'

My dog loves this guy!!
Color: gray & pink
This is the cutest little guy and my dog loves him. He knows him by name, he is tough and holds up incredibly well. My dog can give it a good chew but no problem! Make more cute ones and we will give them all names for him to play with.

Cute and well loved.
Color: gray & pink, Color: gray & pink
My dog gives this 5 stars because she loves to destroy stuffies and this was no exception. She immediately removed the ears and tail, along with the little nubs that were supposed to be nostrils. I give is a few points because she still hasn't removed any legs. I thought it was so cute, and it is far less cute since my dog has had her way with it. She still loves it however…so it is a winner in our book. The photo is after only a couple hours of play
