A successful woman’s life is irrevocably changed when she is diagnosed with A.L.S. and ultimately finds her living situation impossible to endure.

Emily Bauer (Raquel Welch) is a successful psychologist who is living the ideal family life until she is suddenly diagnosed with the dreaded neurological condition called A.L.S., better known as “Lou Gehrig’s Disease”. In the beginning stages, she puts up a courageous fight against this terrible affliction, but her condition is deteriorating, which eventually leaves her in a vegetative state. Emily then pleads with her husband to help her die.
