Losing Breen

Carefully, and caring, approach to a devastating disease. Thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish

LOSING BREEN Be it a caregiver or patient, odds are you can relate to this film in some manner. Insert your medical issue as well. Breen is stricken with early onset alzheimer's... locking her in her own world. Sort of insulated from her self destructing family. Blessed or cursed with two well-meaning but conflicting caregivers. Both her mother and son question if the other is up to challenge. The cold reality is, neither of them are... alone. This roller coaster ride poses questions about love, loyalty and sacrifice. Then challenges you to look within yourself for the answers. As my 12 year old nephew is quick to remind me, "Teamwork makes the dream work." Yes, even a child knows we can't do it alone.
