This documentary was about my mom Gloria E. Harris and our family in Granada Hills, CA. Sadly my Mom developed MS a year or so after this documentary was aired on NBC. Gloria E. Harris was only 54 years old when she passed away, after suffering the effects of MS for about 14 years. Some of the topics discussed in the documentary are still relevant today. Such as unequal pay for women, reproductive rights, and family dynamics.
