Typical family man Charlie is young, healthy, and in the prime of his life. That is, until he's diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma. Although the cancer is still in the early stages and the prognosis looks good, Charlie chooses to forego medical treatment in favour of natural remedies instead, much to the dismay of his friends, Joel and Tess. Rather than allow their friend's suspicion of modern medicine to sign his death certificate for him, Joel and Tess opt to rent an old mansion, kidnap Charlie, and treat him with regular chemotherapy drugs against his will.
