Inspired by real events, 'Alex: The Life of a Child' tells the story of Frank Deford, a former writer for 'Sports Illustrated,' and his wife Carole as their idyllic family life is shattered by the diagnosis of their infant daughter, Alex, with Cystic Fibrosis. In the 1970s, this illness often meant a bleak future, yet Alex blossomed into a remarkable child, displaying incredible resilience despite her challenges. Her devoted family rallied around her, committed to mirroring her courage as they cherished their time together and grappled with the profound loss of Alex, who passed away at the tender age of eight.
