In the wake of seemingly never-ending hospital stays and chemo treatments, Casey and her older siblings are suddenly forced to fend for themselves while constantly adapting to a new normal, which is anything but. Now growing up in the shadow of their sister's cancer, Casey and her siblings try to survive as well as figure out their own place in the world. 


With the family they once had no longer in existence, Casey finds herself wondering what's next. Will they ever again find peace, happiness or each other?
