    Great short film starring two TV veterans. This movie was first aired in the late 80's on PBS and I didn't know much about it but recorded it for a friend. Well, I watched it while I was recording it and got hooked to see the entire thing. Keep tissues handy, you're going to need it. Wonderfully acted and directed.

    This film helped me understand some things about a devistating disease and about other things in life that deeply affect many lives, not just the one individual. Answered some questions for me.
