I have watched this movie over and over again through the years. First of all, I like happy endings. Secondly, we have deaf friends and also our daughter is a deaf interpreter in our local school system. Thirdly, Lindsay Wagner is one of my very favorites along with Anne Archer, Christine Lahti and others. I'll admit it gets a little slow moving during the part where Lindsay Wagner has a relationship with the main character for the movie taken from a book she wrote. But it depicts a dedicated and committed mother and a talented, professional, but sensitive and sweet deaf educator, and best of all the loyalty and support of a dear, dear friend. You just can't beat all that!!
