An Evening with Emma Heming Willis
**Join us for a meaningful and heartfelt evening with Emma Heming Willis,
advocate, caregiver, and author of the new book _The Unexpected Journey_ , as
she shares her personal experience caring for Bruce Willis.**
Emma will speak openly about the realities of caregiving—the challenges, the
grief, the love, and the resilience required when life takes an unexpected
turn. Her story offers comfort, insight, and hope to caregivers, family
members, and anyone whose life has been touched by memory loss or serious
illness.
Rooted in compassion and community—values deeply aligned with Jewish teachings
of kavod, chesed, and caring for one another—this evening is for:
* Caregivers and care partners
* Adult children supporting aging parents
* Families navigating Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia
* Anyone seeking understanding, connection, and strength
Following the event, Emma Heming Willis will be available for a book signing.
