Every parent's worst nightmare leads to one mother's search for justice.
The story begins with every parent's worst nightmare. Terry Stone (Meredith Baxter, TV's "Family Ties") and her husband Geoff answer an early-morning phone call to learn that their son, Andrew, has been rushed to the hospital after being injured in an automobile accident. They arrive at the emergency room and are told that Andrew has suffered severe head injuries and may never fully recover.
Andrew, a college honors student with a bright future, had been a passenger in a car that was side-swiped by a young man with a history of drunken driving.
Terry watches for many months as her son struggles to hold on to life, and then as he starts to regain the steps of his life back. She is not about to let the driver with a drunken driving history use his family's influence and wealth to escape his justified punishment.
But for Andrew, retribution and sympathy are not what he is seeking. His passion is to recapture his lost past, his once promising future, and the person he once was. Andrew and his family pull together, each taking a different route to help them heal the physical and psychological wounds of this tragic experience.
In this tale of hope and despair, strength and weakness the lessons learned are not always obvious to the naked eye. There are times when a person needs to fall before he can finally rise. Sometimes justice is best served when forgiveness is granted.
Based on a true story.
