And that is exactly what happens to firefighter Jeff Elliott and his wife Ruth who are living their dream in the golden Midwest; high school sweethearts, married with two beautiful and healthy children, family farm, horses, sports, church groups, the whole American Dream come true. And one winters day, teenage son Eric Hoovey Elliott collapses at high school basketball practice, is rushed to the hospital, and the doctors find a tumor the size of an orange at the base of his brain. Theyre down to hoursif surgery that risks the boys ability to walk, talk, and perhaps even survive is not performed immediately, Hooveys young life will end before it truly even begins. In a grueling 8-hour procedure, the tumor is removed. And he survives. But for the Elliott family, life and dreams will never be the same. Hoovey has to teach himself to walk again, to read again, to even see straight with two unbalanced eyes, covered one at a time by an eyepatch. Forget ever stepping on a basketball court-- the risk of receiving a fatal blow to the spot on his head is just too great. As the unpaid medical bills mount, Jeffs firefighting salary isnt enough, the family is swimming in crippling debt seemingly overnight, everything he and Ruth have built in their life dream of two kids is at stak. Hooveys teenage sister Jen feels alone and nearly forgotten in the most important time of her life. And as Hoovey realizes his one dream in lifeplaying this gameis gone, too, he sinks into a deep sadness. This is a family at risk. With no-one to turn to, but themselves and their God.
HOOVEY is the true and inspiring story of the Elliott family, who refused to surrender, instead turning to one another and their faith in the worst of circumstances, to rebuild their lives, their boy, and their dreams together. Step by grueling step, with faith, love, and the tireless work of a mother and father to save their family, their farm, their dream, Hoovey learns to walk again. To read again. To dribble and shoot a basketball again. And yes, to dream again himself. Then stepping out in his faith, back onto the hardcourt, to live that dream of playing this game once more...
