Isaac Goldman graduated from a prestigious medical school with two goals in mind: to become a foremost Neurosurgeon, and to defeat death. A very wise professor once told him, "To cut is to cure," and Isaac was determined to spend the rest of his life providing state of the art surgical care to patients with cancer.
After experiencing a loss that no daughter should have to face, Faith O'Brien became a nurse, caring for seriously ill patients and their families. Staunchly advocating for her patients' wishes whether they choose to continue to fight, or to allow nature to take its course, Faith is guided by compassion, knowing for certain that curing is not always the best medicine. Caring is.
Doctor and Nurse clash over a favorite patient who has made the heartbreaking decision to stop treatment and return home with her family. When she is readmitted to Surgical Oncology, they realize they share a common goal, but it has nothing to do with their patient. Humanity, medicine, and life's most profound lessons intertwine to create a story of boy meets girl amidst the anguish and chaos of the hospital. Ultimately, will Faith be able to teach Isaac the most important lesson of all?
