Andy and his wife Vashti commit to taking his healing into their own hands and to embracing life, rather than allowing fear to rule them. Not knowing the outcome, they allowed a camera to follow their family on their journey to find a cure. Shot in verite style in India, Australia, New Zealand and New York, and offering an intimate, insider’s view of both a love story and the couple’s fight to face their fears, go for their dreams, and make every moment count..
