Cherie has just landed a new corporate job and is ready to turn her rebellious life around, she is a third generation military brat who has never been known for her abundance of caution, so when she is suddenly struck with a seizure at work, her parents are left out of the loop while she lay in a hospital bed waiting for a diagnosis.

Her roommate finally does the right thing and calls them, and they all hear the news together – she has what appears to be an inoperable cancerous brain tumor. To make matters worse, she has neglected to turn in the insurance paperwork at her new job and already has over $300,000.00 in hospital bills. She is dismissed with a cold instruction to enjoy what little time she has.

Her parents jump into action and start calling on every one they know and researching Cherie’s options for treatment and financial support. They are fortunate to find one of the top brain surgeons in the country is nearby and he immediately operates. Cherie is unable to tolerate the gold standard of cancer care that is chemo and radiation so her doctors race against the clock to develop a revolutionary immunotherapy clinical trial – it takes months, precious time she cannot afford – they do all of the rigourous work to develop the trial, and are rebuffed by the FDA with little regard or proof it was even considered. They have no choice but to take Cherie in her deteriorating state to Thailand to get the treatment that could save her life.

As her story turns she becomes a hero with an abundance of faith that her life has a greater purpose that will outlive them all as her family is forced to go toe-to-toe with the government they have served their entire lives.
