    Meryl is impassioned in this story dealing with an important and little known issue.

    The acting wasn't all that great. I also find it hard to believe that this kid had side-effects to every single solitary anti-convulsant drug out there. I have a feeling they were over-dramatized for this movie. However, the movie is a must see for medical personnel and families of epileptics! It is based on a true story of how the ketogenic diet (which is a very strict high fat/low carb diet) can help control seizures. The ending was very uplifting.

    A subject close to my heart which made for emotional viewing. A Mother?s love and determination to do absolutely anything it takes to make her son well. Meryl Streep as always gives her role everything she has and the rest of the main cast played good roles too. I can?t see any Mother?s out there not liking or relating their feelings to this film, a great watch.
