This is Sarah Wilson's journal. She's moving back to her home in Flint, Minnesota, and is finally going to see her best friend Nathan White again. As she tries to adjust back to her life, her and Nathan go through some troubles. Some are minor, some are major. Sickness, death, and injury seem to crowd their life, far more than when Sarah first moved away. Gains and losses, happiness and sadness, they choose to stick together. But some things are harder to face than others...
