This is a story of a healthy, energetic, athletic business woman who loses her sight and what happens afterwards that brings back joy to her life.
I saw the adds on Hallmark Movies and Mysteries, and wanted to watch this movie. I expected that it would be uplifting, and it was. I expected there would be a love story, and there were several.
After I watched the movie, I was surprised to see that Eric McCormack ( Will from Will & Grace ) was listed as starring in it. I did not remember seeing him in it at all, and used a lot of time trying to figure out which face was his. Perhaps you will figure out right away.
I spent the beginning of the movies nervous because I didn't know when she would lose her sight, and how it would happen. Once that part was over, I could enjoy the movie.
Sarah Drew did a great job of portraying Emily. Emily is a very likeable character, and we can empathize as she goes through the trauma of losing her sight and having her world change forever.
Toby Levins is very good as Emily's fiancee Conner. He is very business focused too, and loves Emily. He tries to cope with her new reality, and be helpful and supportive. Like a real human, Conner makes some big mistakes that make the story more realistic and interesting.
The friends and co-works of Emily are a big part of the story. Everyone should have caring people like them in their lives.
About the dog... this is a separate but intertwined story. It is a bit Disney, and surprising, and fun.
The love stories... Love between Emily and her friends and coworkers, the dog's love of food and learning and Emily, a little romance...
Watch it and find out.
