I put off watching this forever because I was afraid it would have a gut wrenching ending. ALS is a horrible disease and I couldn't figure out how it could end any other way. However, I was pleasantly surprised. This show takes an incredibly difficult situation and make it lighter than you expect without making light of the situation in any way. In fact, I have made a note of it as perhaps a good show for any family who is dealing with this disease so that they can see that it doesn't mean that the person fighting the disease has to give up on their dreams. However, the dream may end up looking different.

Honestly, this is not a "feel good" type show, but it's also not a total melodrama either. It's a very good series that is very well done and leaves you with much to think about. I was very impressed with all the acting as well as the thoughtful storytelling.
