About the Film

Pam White was an active mother of two in West Virginia until her brain was infected by a virus. Jeff Kissell and Mary Ellen Kissell dreamed of retiring in a cabin in the woods until their lives were shattered when Jeff suffered a stroke while mountain biking. A single moment permanently set both Pam and Jeff’s futures on intersecting paths in their search for hope and support.

Schurig Center would like to thank Jeff and Mary Ellen Kissell, Pam White, Barbara Bennett, and their families for opening their lives to share their journeys to recovery. And, a very special thanks to Andrew Hida for generously donating his time and talents to create this inspirational film.
