As Sarah tries her best to go through the stagesâÈ'the anger, the sadness, the letting goâÈ'she has trouble keeping her grief at bay and moving on with life. Her father, a retiree who has become addicted to QVC, urges Sarah to go back to work at BreckenridgeâÈçs local morning show. Her best friend, a recent divorcee who always manages to say the wrong things, convinces Sarah to sort through CullyâÈçs belongings.
