“AN UNCONVENTIONAL LOVE”

by Antonia McGhee and Anthony Miller Synopsis.

Benjamin J Earl has been raising his 14 year old, dying daughter since she was a very small 

child and he’s been doing it all on his own. He’s a good man and a good father, who 

deceived his daughter by sending her letters and cards from her absent mother, because he 

believes strongly that a child should have two parents. His heart is breaking for the suffering 

he watches his daughter go through and now he’s made her a promise to follow through on 

her dying wish, to see her mother one last time. 

Benjamin knows this is a tall order since Amy’s mother, Mary Shane Earl, doesn’t want to be 

found and he’s preparing himself for a fight to find her and to get an unco-operative ex to 

return with him for Amy’s sake. 

He finds her, and Mary abandon’s Benjamin once again as she runs from the scene with her 

current partner, Raymond (Ray) Osman, and now Benjamin’s left with the difficult task of 

explaining to his dying daughter, why he hasn’t come through on his promise to bring Mary 

back for one last goodbye. 

Mary reluctantly returns to the hospital to find her daughter in desperate need of a kidney 

transplant and has a good idea about how to save her.  

The ending is a twist that shows that family isn’t always the white picket fence, and the ones who come through to help when it counts may not always get along, or even understand each other but people can surprise you.
