A touching look inside of a person struggling with questions probably most adults have had about what is really stopping us from helping people not doing as well as we are in life, even if we aren't rich. Mrs. Kehoe's character seemed a little like a puzzle piece not quite sized to fit, but the story flowed smoothly and brings to light a women's issue I had not heard of before.
