Can the Maywood family survive? The day her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer, Ann Maywood put her promising career on hold and raced to Maggie's side. On some level, Ann knew the battle they faced would be a lonely one, and she was right. Other than frequent rants about the injustice of their mother's illness, Ann's younger sister, Cass, stayed on the road and out of sight. While the brilliant baby of the family wanted to help, their mother stubbornly insisted Chuck remain in graduate school at Stanford. Following Maggie's death, Ann expects life to return to normal.
