Synopsis

Things are falling apart in the Richardson household. Celine's marriage is at a crossroads and she worries how her ten-year-old daughter, Kassie, will be affected. But the situation turns devastating when Celine is diagnosed with breast cancer. As her relationship with Keith deteriorates, Celine worries that she'll be left to navigate the difficult process of cancer treatment alone. But comfort and support come in the form of Celine's best friend, Lauren. Now, Celine will be forced to make tough decisions-- about her marriage and otherwise-- and for the first time in her life, she wants to give up. Lauren vows to help by any means necessary and makes the kind of sacrifice only a best friend can. But will it be too late?
