โฆ Synopsis
A mother's love vs. a doctor's oath.
Oncologist Emma Blake has dedicated her life to finding a cure for a rare brain cancer. Twenty-five years ago, Emma's childhood friend Kate died of glioblastoma, and Emma vowed to annihilate the deadly disease. Now, Kate's father, Ned, is pushing her to work harder to fulfill that promise.
When Emma discovers she's pregnant, she's torn between the needs of her family and the demands of her work. While Ned pressures her to do the unthinkable, her husband, Tim, decorates the nursery. Unwilling to abandon her research, Emma attempts to keep both sides of her life in balance.
Emma knows she needs to reconcile her past with her present and walk the fine line between mother and physician. But Ned has a secret, and when Emma discovers what he's been hiding, the foundation of her world cracks.
Nowhere Near Goodbye is a story of family, failure, and second chances.
