Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Naval officer Neil Campbell (Vince Grant) heads off for a lengthy tour of duty in a submarine, leaving behind his pregnant wife April (Gabrielle Carteris) and his vitriolic mother Marian (Linda Gray). Entering the scene as an artist commissioned to paint a portrait of "Mrs. Campbell", Monica (Roma Downey) tries to mend the rift between April and Marian, with little success. Fate takes a hand in matters when Marian finds herself in desperate need of a bone marrow transplant--and since her son is unavailable, April volunteers as a donor, even though it may endanger her unborn baby. The crisis is not resolved until Marian reveals the long-suppressed reason for her nasty behavior...whereupon an unexpected donor miraculously materializes.
