Sometimes in life we find friendships in the strangest of places and people. Jeremiah a teenage boy with cerebral palsy has never had a friend and believes that he never will. When Lily, a transfer student walks into his biology class his world changes in a way he never thought possible. She sits next to him and comes up with a deal, he teaches her the ropes and she will sit next to him everyday and talk to him, as he’s pointed out no one ever has. Jeremiah reluctantly agrees and a friendship is born. Lily falls into his life like the angel that he needed. She makes him realize that he is not his illness, he it who he sees himself as. Jeremiah for most of his life has believed that he is different; people will always see him for the things that make him stand out and not for who he is. Eventually just when Lily thinks she has gotten him to open his eyes he reverts back to how he felt before. In the climax she forces him to come out of his shell and show the school who he is, who he wants them to see him as. He dances, he sings and he brings the house down with a confidence he didn’t know was possible. He owns who he is and owes it all to Lily. In the end Jeremiah becomes a new person because of his friend Lily and realizes that our greatest gifts can be those that are only in our lives for a moment but their impact lasts a lifetime.
