Description

When Jenna Trayne's oncologist sadly informs her that there is nothing more to be done for her cancer, she pleads with her husband, Frank, for one last evening of intimacy before she dies. Determined to make the evening special, Frank and Jenna savor every moment in each other's arms. The morning after they make love, Jenna's pain vanishes. Two days later, she feels completely recovered. Both Frank and Jenna are stunned. How could this be possible? Joyful and a bit skeptical over Jenna's unexpected second chance at life, Frank believes her cancer is in remission. Jenna, however, harbors the growing conviction that her husband has somehow contracted a miraculous "gift" that has cured her. Frightened by his vision of the dire consequences of using the "cure" word, Frank sets out to prove he is not the cause of his wife's astounding recovery. Thus begins an emotional journey through a bizarre series of events involving painful decisions and difficult choices for the couple. Jenna and Frank's peaceful life becomes increasingly chaotic until Frank's unexpected-and unwelcome-"gift" leads them to the brink of death.
