Movie #3468 "Follow the Stars Home" (Hallmark) What a find this was --- a really good film on raising a disabled child and how that can affect a marital couple who find out before the birth of the baby that she will have defects (and probably won't live past 6 years old) and how they disagree about what to do about it. Very emotional, for sure, and the actors aren't your typical Hallmark people --- They include the bride from Steve Martin's "Father of the Bride" along with two well accomplished men, Blair Brown as the grandmother, and two very competent little girls, one (Alexa Vega) who has now moved from child star to adult starring in a Hallmark mystery series with her husband. It's a tough watch but so worth it, and it gets a 5, highly recommend, from me. See if you can find it.
