Heston's son, FRASER HESTON, claims the disease has had a devastating effect on his famous father.

He says, "He's still at home and will be for the rest of his life.

"He's exhibiting a kind of courage I haven't seen before.

THE TEN COMMANDMENTS star is being cared for by his wife of 62 years, LYDIA.

Fraser adds, "He's with his first and only love - my mother."

Heston's son has created an animated full-length version of The Ten Commandments for television and his father was involved in the development of the project.
