Susan Surandon at her best! If you are a mother you will sob your guts out and this movie will stick with you for a lifetime. I do not recommend watching this when you have to get up the next day because you will be puffy and emotionally drained from the roller coaster ride you'll never regret viewing. This is the true life story of the Odone family, Augusto, Michaela, and Lorenzo, and their battle with Adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD), a disease that attacks the central nervous system by systemically destroying its protective cover, the myelin sheath. It is an extremely rare disease that is transmitted exclusively to males through a gene that is carried by the mother. This is a film that will inspire anyone who sees it to never quit and not to be defeated when told that what they want to accomplish is impossible. When you are facing impossible odds and you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, this is the film to watch because it gives inspiration. This movie will turn a switch on about how difficult it is to keep renewing optimism and that intestinal fortitude is what keeps hope from ending. This earned more than five stars in the "stick with you for a lifetime" style of entertainment. It is almost fifteen years since this was made and every woman I have ever talked to about this movie has rated it 5 stars. Great CHICK-Gift.

I purchased this DVD to watch with a friend who has a medical condition that shares similarities with the medical condition that the child in this film is diagnosed as having. It was while speaking with this friend a week ago that she mentioned that doctors said her nerve synapsis were not firing properly that I stopped as I was walking and asked her "repeat what you just said." She did and I instantly thought of Lorenzo's Oil. I pray that by watching this movie that we can possibly identify a related medical issue that her doctors have not yet discovered and by doing so possibly help her condition.
