    Summary

    “I, Clark, take you, Bruce, to be my husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish, till death do us apart…”

    But what happens when he doesn’t recognize you anymore? What happens when he doesn’t love you anymore? Must you still remain bound to a cliché promise spoken in a different time? To a different person?

    After decades of marriage—trial after trial—Clark must face a new marital challenge: watching his beloved, ill husband fall in love with someone else.

    A story where a true testament of love and devotion comes not from the “better” but the “worse.”

    *Inspired by a true story of an elderly wife who faithfully cared for and loved her husband, who was confined in a mental institution, despite watching him fall in love with someone else. She faithfully lived out her vows until death did her apart.
