The mother of a cancer sick child struggles to maintain a normal life for her family. Stine is 37 years old and the single mother of three girls. Her daughter Cecilie, age 11, has cancer and has had it since she was 3 years old. Cecilie has spent half her life at the hospital and Stine along with her. Stine is fighting an unfair battle in unbearable chaos. At the same time she insists on maintaining some sort of life for all three children. The film follows their family life, both at home and in the hospital over a period of two years.
