Suddenly, it seemed there was a glass wall between them, and their long walks and talks stopped. Their world was altered forever when an MRI confirmed what they could no longer ignore: Brian had Alzheimer's disease. Forced to confront the truth of the diagnosis and its impact on the future he had envisioned, Brian was determined to die on his feet, not live on his knees. Supporting each other in their last journey together, Brian and Amy made the unimaginably difficult and painful decision to go to Dignitas, an organization based in Switzerland that empowers a person to end their own life with dignity and peace. In this heartbreaking and surprising memoir, Bloom sheds light on a part of life we so often shy away from discussing--its ending. Written in Bloom's captivating, insightful voice and with her trademark wit and candor, In Love is an unforgettable portrait of a beautiful marriage, and a boundary-defying love."-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Ameche, Brian A. $x Mental health. 600 10 $a Bloom, Amy, $d 1953- 650 0 $a Alzheimer's disease $x Patients $v Biography. 650 0 $a Assisted suicide. 650 0 $a Alzheimer's disease $x Family relationships. $x Family relationships. 650 0 $a Large type books. 941 $a 14 945 $a lpt 952 $l FGPD194 $d 20240515010536.0 952 $l UJPE911 $d 20240111060040.0 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20231206010930.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010032843.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20230523012300.0 952 $l XSPE157 $d 20221105011303.0 952 $l TKPE492 $d 20221005014008.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20220824011045.0 952 $l XHPD657 $d 20220803012515.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20220615010319.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220609010253.0 952 $l FDPC194 $d 20220607010157.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20220601010255.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20220514010330.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=27A2D6CAD34B11EC89B31A4336ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b BUPInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
