Tim Farnsworth has built a life most people envy. His law practice generates serious money. He and his wife Jane own a stunning house and jet off to places other couples only dream about. Twenty years of marriage have given them comfort and security. Then Tim's old condition returns without warning. The illness forces him away from his corner office and expensive suits. He cannot maintain the lifestyle he worked decades to create. Jane watches her husband transform into someone she barely recognizes. The man who once commanded courtrooms now struggles with basic daily routines. The disease strips away everything Tim thought defined him. His identity as a powerful attorney crumbles. Jane must decide whether she can love this altered version of her husband. Their marriage faces a test neither anticipated when they exchanged vows two decades earlier.
