From a neuroscientist and New York Times bestselling author comes a powerful narrative about seeking harmony amid tragedy. Richard, once an acclaimed concert pianist celebrated for his emotional depth and technical skill, now faces the devastating effects of ALS, leaving his right arm paralyzed and his fingers motionless. This loss feels like a profound death, akin to a divorce from his passion. He anticipates the inevitable decline of his left arm, mirroring the emotional distance in his marriage. Three years prior, Karina replaced their wedding photo with a mirror, symbolizing her struggle to move on. Stuck in a life as an after-school piano teacher, she is paralyzed by fear and excuses, blaming Richard and their failed marriage for her unfulfilled dreams. As Richard's condition worsens and he can no longer care for himself, Karina reluctantly steps into the role of caretaker. Their journey becomes a poignant struggle to reconcile their shared past before time runs out. This narrative, rich in emotional depth, explores themes of redemption, forgiveness, and the quest for freedom and peace in the face of overwhelming challenges.
