Charlie Atwood is the creator of ‘Barmy,’ a newspaper comic with dwindling readership about the necessity of self-reliance. Severely injured in a car-bicycle collision, Charlie is forced to face his worst fear: the complete loss of independence. Amy Murray has her hands full as the home health care nurse assigned to Charlie. Confined to a full-leg cast and virtually immobile, Charlie must reevaluate his thought process and direction of the cartoon, while struggling with a growing fondness for Amy.
