Dancing in the Narrows: A Mother-Daughter Odyssey Through Chronic Illness

A mother’s love and persistence are put to the test when her teen daughter is stricken with a mysterious, debilitating illness. As time goes on, Dana’s condition drives everyone away --- everyone, that is, except for her mother. Finally, desperate to improve Dana’s health, the two hit the road in search of a cure.

Dana’s chronic symptoms require endless supplements, pharmaceuticals and dietary restrictions, evoking a heroine’s journey. Full of humor, blind hope and alternative medicine, DANCING IN THE NARROWS is a poignant chronicle of Anna and Dana’s multiyear odyssey toward healing from trauma.
