Documentary explores how Lewy body dementia affected his brain
Robin Williams knew there was a lot more going on inside his brain than doctors realized. "Robin was right when he said to me, 'I just want to reboot my brain,'" his widow, Susan Schneider Williams, tells Today. "In that moment I promised him that we would get to the bottom of this and I just didn't know that would be after he passed." The new documentary Robin's Wish explores the 63-year-old's battle with Lewy body dementia, the second most-common type of progressive dementia after Alzheimer's, which he wasn't diagnosed with until after his 2014 death by suicide.
