Just Before Midnight

JBM.Final

Christmas Eve is the time to be at home enjoying the warmth and laughter of family, isn’t it?

A couple in their late 60s faces the prospects of a first ever Christmas with no kids or grandkids in the house …

An emergency room nurse handles every crisis at work with calm, but inside her emotions are roiling because she can’t get hold of her husband or her youngest son …

Over the past two years he has lost his job, his house, his wife, and it feels like his kids are slipping away …

Her first baby is scheduled to arrive in a few weeks, but with her husband still on duty in Afghanistan, she’s never felt so alone in all her life …

Four individuals and families are trying so hard to grab hold of the spirit of Christmas that they can’t see they are about to run headlong into each other … just before midnight.
