In the months that followed, Johnny's family and his high school sweetheart, Becky, struggle to put together the pieces of their shattered lives.

When a sudden illness sends Alice to hospital, a glorious vision comes to her--there, standing before her, is Johnny himself, gently urging his bewildered mother to be strong for her splintered family.
