He might be able to help.

I don't want to give you false hope,

you know?

But people do come

from all over the world to see him, so...

Excuse me.

I'm very sorry.

Thank you.

Tramadol,

gabapentin, glucosamine.

Hi, baby.

Do you have water, Anna?

Here you go.

Let's see how breakfast was today.

Okay.

Well, must have been good. It's all done.

- Did you get that assignment done?

- Mmm-hmm.

- It looked really hard. Was it okay?

- Great.

Uh, no.

It looked really hard to me.

- I'll tell you that.

- Ready?

- I did my homework.

- I bet it was easy for you.

Baby.

Mommy.

Mommy.

- Almost, almost, almost.

- It hurts, Mommy.

I know, honey. I know.

Ooh.

You did it.

Okay, let me get you dressed.

Attagirl.

That's a girl.

Here you go, baby.

Cute.

- They're all like that.

- Not to worry, baby.

I'll take you shopping.

But for today...

For now, let's try these.

All right.

Why do you think God hasn't healed me?

There are so many things I don't know.

But I know God loves you.

Hey, Anna.

Hey.

I'm sorry you had to miss the aquarium.

Yeah, me, too.

Hey, where are you going?

I don't know.

- Library.

- I'll go with you.

Really?

Of course. I love the library.

Dr. Nurko's office.

Hi, there. This is Christy Beam

calling from Burleson, Texas, again.

I just wanted to make sure

that Dr. Nurko had received my letter.

Mrs. Beam, as I assured you

the last time you called,

we're making every effort,

but Dr. Nurko gets a lot of letters.

I'm sure he does,

but there are specifics to Anna's condition

that I think that he would find...

I really don't know if I'll get a chance

to ask him about the letter today.

Okay, then I'll call again tomorrow.

Thank you so much.

Bye now.

Fort Worth Hospital.

Hi, Dr. Burgi's office, please.

This is Dr. Burgi.

Hi, Dr. Burgi, this is Christy Beam calling.

I just wanted to make sure.

Have you spoken to Dr. Nurko?

I just am wondering

why I haven't heard from him.

It's been weeks.

I know.

Well, I want you to know

I've called him three times,

and, uh, you're on the waiting list.

I just checked the other day. You're still on it.

You know, his schedule opens

when people no longer need his care.

So, you mean when they're cured?

No.

No, I don't mean that.

So, I have to wait for someone to die

and just pray that Anna

doesn't go before then?

Are you there?

Do you even hear me?

'Cause I don't hear you.

Hi, Daddy.

Hey, munchkins.

Hey, baby doll.

I brought you a little somethin'

to brighten your day.

- He's so cute.

- Ain't he?

- Oh, my.

- He's a Yorkie terrier.

- His name's Napoleon.

- He's adorable.

- Oh, he's French.

- Uh-huh.

- Bonjour.

- Ain't he cute? Oui, oui, oui.

Oh, baby.

His owners never came back for him.

- It's strange.

- Oh, my gosh.

- Look at his little face!

- Oh, really?

'Cause he looks like a purebred,

probably from a breeder.

See, Mom?

- Express mail.

- Oh.

- Hello.

- He's so cute.

So cute.

Stop putting me in that position.

Is there anything wrong with

trying to make her feel better?

You know, giving her

something to look forward to

when she comes home from school

instead of laying on that couch

day after day?

Well, now we have five dogs.

Five. Don't have a savings account,

- but we have five dogs.

- I don't care if we have 50 dogs.

Well, I care.

I'm the one who has to look after 'em.

Now's probably not the time

to be adding somethin' to my plate.

I'm just trying to lift her spirit.

Oh, and I'm not?

We need a solution, Kevin. We need it now.

Yeah. And we'll get it.

How?

By not losin' our faith.

Really?

How's that goin' so far?

Good night, baby.

If I'm not happy

in a particular situation,

I need to ask myself,

and you might want to ask yourself,

"What am I doing or what am I not doing

"that's creating this?

"Have I sinned?

"Have I drifted astray?

"And if I have,

I need to man up and get back on track."

- Great message.

- Keep on askin' that question.

Nice to see you.

Thank you very much. Thanks again.

I'm glad your mom is feeling better.

Did you forget your sweater?

- Oh, yeah.

- I'm sure it's...

- I'll grab it.

- Well, now or never.

I'll be right back. Good to see you.

All right. Let me think of something.

- Let's do it.

- Christy, hey.

Oh, hi.

How is that sweet little girl of yours doin'?

- Bye-bye.

- Good days and bad days.

- Yeah.

- Christy, we just

want you to know that

we're prayin' for Annabel.

Thank you.

- Thank you.

- It's been goin' on for quite a while now.

Oh, well, longer than you can imagine.

Well, since she's not been healed,

it may be a good time for you and Kevin

to ask yourselves some difficult questions.

I don't understand.

Honey, Anna is not better,

and she should be.

Now, somebody's sins

are preventing the healing.

Either yours or Kevin's or

maybe even Anna's.

Excuse me.

- Christy.

- Christy, I don't think you understood.

Pardon me.

- Christy.

- I think you might have misunderstood us.

I'm not havin' it. I'm not havin' it.

- Look, you can't...

- I'm gonna go and give them a call.

- No, you can't, you can't, you can't.

- I'm gonna...

I don't want the girls to know

that we're fightin' about people at church.

Why is Mommy yelling at the cows?

Let me tell you something.

I think they're fighting about me.

But why?

Just like Pastor Scott said,

you need to look at yourself...

Well, because when

someone you love gets sick,

it causes stress.

I can handle her thinkin' that

this is your fault or my fault,

but no one can say that this is Anna's fault!

Okay. Baby, relax.

Okay, just because

we're all in the same church,

don't mean we're always

gonna see eye to eye.

You just got to let it go.

It'll be okay.

It won't be okay! Stop sayin' that!

Nothin' is okay!

And until it is, I am never

goin' back to that church.

Where you goin'?

I'm gonna take Anna shoppin'

to see if I can get her some clothes

to make goin' to school more bearable!

Come on! Girls, let's go.

You okay?

I prayed that Anna would get better

and that we could play soccer

again like we used to.

I like that prayer.

Is Anna gonna die?

A recent open letter saying

that climate change is, quote "not valid"...

Hey.

Can you pick up Abbie and Adelynn

from school tomorrow?

I think so. Why?

I'm taking Anna to Boston.

Okay...

Okay, we don't have an appointment yet.

She's dying, Kevin.

I can see it.

Baby, I'm scared, too, okay,

but you can't just

take her to Boston without an appointment.

Yes, I can.

Ladies and gentlemen,

from the flight deck,

this is your captain speaking.

Our flight to Boston today will take

approximately three and a half hours,

so please sit back and relax.

The dawn is breaking

A light shining through

But I'm open, you're closed

Where I follow, you'll go

I worry I won't see your face

Light up again

Even the best fall down sometimes

Thank you.

Even the wrong words seem to rhyme

Thank you, sir.
