Plot

Julie finds her husband Henry in bed with another woman when she returns home early from a trip with their twins, Nicholas and Nicole, who believe in magic and even have their own language. When she discovers that her son has lung cancer, Julie seeks help from a faith healer in Poland. A romantic relationship develops between Julie and Alexei, the charismatic healer. After Nicholas is cured, Alexei seeks out Julie in Canada and they begin a relationship. Nicholas gets sick again and Alexei is unable to cure him. By choosing love, Alexei has lost his gift. Although Julie is now pregnant by Alexei, she and her husband reunite, both resigned to their son's illness and trying to make the best out of the situation for their daughter's sake.
