The experiences change Rose, and she remains close friends with Hunter's parents, Jonathan and Samantha. Rose continues her work as a pediatrician and cares for 18-year-old Hope Shields. When Hope learns she is pregnant before high school graduation, she turns to Rose for guidance. Hope's circumstances along with Jonathan and Samantha's journey to find meaning in times of struggle leave Rose wondering how she can best be a source of support. Rose will have to believe in the power of family and friendship and the wonder that can be found in the eyes and the smiles.
