When someone’s life is taken, there is no turning back. Death is unequivocally permanent. It’s not as if you can turn around after your last breath fades to get another moment with the people closest to you. How does this bode for the family left completely alone?
Andrew lost hope. He couldn’t function, even after two years without his wife. He couldn’t connect to anyone or anything. He was once successful and creative, but now is a recluse, hiding from society and holding onto the fading memory of his wife’s serene face.
Something is different about his situation though. He gets a second chance. He gets the opportunity to stare into his wife’s intense blue eyes once again. It sounds like a gift, but will it ultimately cause him to lose touch with reality? Are second chances what we really desire for closure or will they push us farther into the deep well of uncertainty? And what about the old friend now re-introduced into his life? Can she help him through this troubling time?
