persimmon tree

Question

I hope you can tell me what’s wrong with my persimmon tree. I live in
northern North Carolina and have had this tree for about 7 years. Last year
there was no fruit probably because we had 2 overnight freezes in the
spring right after the tree gave leaves. All the leaves fell off and then
new leaves sprouted and the tree looked fine with some over large leaves
but no fruit. This year everything appeared fine but little by little the
leaves are all falling off. One side o the tree is completely bare of
leaves. Is there anything I can do to bring back life or is the tree slowly
dying?
