Love or Die Trying

A story of love and perseverance and a reminder that it's never too late to start over.

Bob Ramsay had it all -- and lost it all, often. At forty, he lived in a drug treatment centre in Atlanta. Starting over back in Toronto, he began dating an older woman, a doctor named Jean Marmoreo who had three angry kids of divorce. The chances of this relationship lasting were zero. But they married and created a very different "out there" life for themselves, climbing mountains, running marathons, and exploring the ends of the earth.

Then one day Bob's heart stopped, and life got much worse after it was re-started. But once again, perseverance and love won over fate, and today at seventy Bob turns connection into an art form and Jean Marmoreo at seventy-seven is a MAiD doctor -- leading her patients across the thin veil between life and death.

Love or Die Trying is the story of love and perseverance, a reminder that it's never too late to start over.
