About Forever Love

Forever Love is a poignant new television movie about a woman who awakens from a 20-year-long coma and begins her life all over again. In the drama, suggested by a true story, Lizzie and Alex Brooks are a fairy tale young couple, wildly in love and the parents of a little girl, Emma. Then, without warning, 24-year-old Lizzie suffers a stoke. At the hospital, doctors tell Alex that his young wife has slipped into a deep coma and there is nothing to do but wait to see if she comes out of it. Alex, determined to keep his vow to love Lizzie in sickness and in health, decides to bring her home and take care of her. Alex is helped and consoled by Gail, Lizzie's best friend. Gail not only offers a loving friendship to Alex, she fills in for Lizzie with young Emma as well. When Gail's husband is killed in a car crash, Alex, Gail and Emma form a de facto family unit of their own until, 20 years after her stroke, Lizzie wakes up. Miraculously, Lizzie is pronounced perfectly healthy and begins to try to assimilate back into a world that has radically changed. Emma, who is about to be married, is thrilled to have her mother back, as are Alex and Gail. But, Lizzie's presence is also confusing for all of them as she attempts to move back into the place she rightfully occupies in their lives. It's a journey of challenge and discovery for all of them as they grow, change, and begin to embrace each other again. Product Description

This is one of my favorite movies so far, to think that someone could close there eyes and open them up twenty years later is very scary. I just loved the way the husband never gave up on his wife and hopping that one day she would pull through, amazing it is one great movies for my library. August 3, 2008

This movie is wonderful. I don't know how many love stories could withstand a 20 year coma. I own this on video. I have also seen it many times on Lifetime. I was happy to read the info on the movie which has been corrected for the DVD, On the video's jacket, they have the name of Lizzie's husband wrong (Alex)I am not sure why. Glad to see this was corrected for the DVD. November 20, 2006
