Nola's decision brings new hope to Brooke's life when her mentoring partner is Amelia Wood. A twelve year old cancer patient. When the two girls meet, the meaning of life becomes clear to Brooke who firmly believes that her own isn't worth living. You can either rid your life away, live it, or have it taken from you - with no decision available.
