A dying father pulls his torn family back together for a last Christmas.

Weeks before Christmas, bitter executive Adam Thornton learns that he only has a short time to live. Having abandoned his wife and four children years earlier, Adam confides in his former wife, who encourages him to bring the family together one last time and apologize for his actions. Without telling his children about his terminal illness, Adam worries how they will respond to his sudden request for forgiveness.—Jwelch5742

When Adam Thornton learns that he only has a little time left, he decides that he wants to make peace with his family. The problem is that most of his family are not exactly fond of him because he walked out on his wife, and also because of his stubborn nature. He has not spoken to his youngest son after having an argument with him; he was in the wrong but only realizes it after his son has left, never to be heard from since. He goes to his former wife to help him find him, but when his doctor tells him that traveling wouldn't be good for him, she suggests that they invite them all for Christmas. While most of them come, Adam's attempt at reconciliation won't be easy.—[email protected]
