Extraordinary Measures
When John Crowley's two young children, Megan and Patrick, are diagnosed with Pompe disease, an illness that stops the body from breaking down sugar, he is finally on the fast road to business success. John, encouraged by his wife Aileen, abandons his work and joins forces with Dr. Robert Stonehill, an outlier in the field of biotechnology, in order to launch a startup and find a cure in time to save Megan and Patrick's lives. During Dr. Stonehill's tireless efforts to prove the beliefs that have labeled him the medical community's "black sheep," an odd alliance is formed between the two.
