IN SICKNESS AND IN HEALTH chronicles the lives of three same-sex couples fighting to marry the partners they love—and tragically, one couple's heart breaks as its dream dies at the cruel hands of ALS.
In 2002, seven couples in the state of New Jersey filed a lawsuit in hopes of legalizing same-sex marriage. IN SICKNESS AND IN HEALTH closely chronicles the journey of three of these activist couples.
The most poignant characters in the story are Marilyn and Diane, partners of 14 years, who were dedicated to fighting for the marriage right they desperately desired. Before their dream could be realized, Marilyn was diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, better known as Lou Gehrig's disease.
You will be forever changed after stepping into the lives of these couples, watching them fight to marry the partners they love - and, tragically, watching one couple's heartbreak as its dream dies at the cruel hands of ALS.
