Before this film, I was not incredibly familiar with ALS. Going in, I knew it was about ALS but after seeing it this film gave me more of an awareness of ALS and what the disease does to a person. While ALS is devastating, it showed how a man chose to truly live once he was diagnosed with the terminal illness and how a family bonded together. I can't say enough about John and his family. John Paine is an amazing man! I could have left with a book full of quotes from him about life and God. I left so encouraged and want everyone to see this film! I believe this is a film that will strengthen the ALS community, will bring awareness to those not familiar with the disease, and be a powerful tool for those who are family members or friends of those with ALS.
