A tender, emotionally grounded drama about a nurse's fight to keep an HIV-positive child she's come to love, grappling with medical tragedy, legal injustice, and the meaning of family.

Baby Annie is HIV positive and has been left in the clinic by her drug addicted mother. To prevent her from being placed in a home where they'd just wait for her to die, nurse Susan takes charge of Annie at her home. Two years later, she plans to adopt her -- but suddenly Annie's mother reappears and demands her back. And under the law, Susan, as foster-mother, has no claim to the child.
