Richard Estrada Corey

Richard E. Corey is an exceptional author who shares his personal experience in his autobiography…and you can learn from his experience no matter what your age.

Richard and Elaine were married happily for 12 years. Together, they raised his sons from a previous marriage. However, the marriage with Elaine failed when she was unable/unwilling to conquer her alcohol addiction.

Fast forward 35 years when Richard and Elaine reunited. At first, it was wonderful! They love they shared came flowing back like a joyful river. Unfortunately, as the months unfolded, it became clear that Elaine was still fighting her battle with the bottle. As Richard and Elaine struggled to make the relationship work, Richard suffered a severe stroke. To save Elaine from being burdened, Richard made the excruciatingly tough decision to end the relationship.

After he made a complete recovery, Richard wrote this book as a cautionary tale for seniors reconnecting with lost loves even though the original problems were not solved. In addition, Richard shares his faith-- his active prayer life—during his journey “through the valley of the shadow of death.” His heart-felt communication with God will encourage anyone battling life-threatening illness that they too can overcome.
