Brock desperately wants to leave a legacy for his 7 year old son and be remembered as more than a 'sick person'. Kristen, Brock's wife, wants to maintain a closeness with her husband even while he is dying. And their son Ben... he just wants to have fun with his mom and dad. Through their difficult journey, the family comes to realizes that many things can still go right even when things have gone terribly wrong.
