Day Is Ending A Doctor's Love Shattered by Alzheimer's Disease

Description: Doctor Richard Zalar and Trude become more and more real as Day Is Ending evolves from its opening on a dreary, and tragic December 7, 1941 to December 7, 2000, the day of Trude's death. This romance is so moving and meaningful because in many ways it is about those "normal" life events that are common to most of us: the first kiss, the roller coaster of courtship, the proposal, marriage, new life, growth, joy, success--and then, a shadow, an inkling, a doubt that insidiously grows into a heartbreaking tragedy. There is no facile resolution offered here. Dr. Zalar simply asks if he would ever have been able to appreciate the depth of this love affair with Trude if they had been spared the torment of Alzheimer's disease.Zalar, Richard W. is the author of 'Day Is Ending A Doctor's Love Shattered by Alzheimer's Disease' with ISBN 9780974055800 and ISBN 0974055808.
