Kate and Steve Novak struggle to find their “new normal” after Steve suffers a traumatic brain injury. Can their marriage survive their new roles as a helpless patient and his caregiver? On the verge of losing everything, the stigma of Steve’s injury is compounded by the controversy surrounding the chosen treatment, medical marijuana (MMJ).  Faced with a no-win situation, Steve chooses to risk his job and treat his injury. But will his family be there in the end? In addition to MMJ, Steve’s recovery requires time.  See the Novak Family's story unfold over 12 months, from injury, to aftermath, to crisis, to solution, and finally to “a new normal.” Remembering Us is based on actual events.
